Our skin tells the story of some of our favorite moments: smile lines from laughing with friends, dark spots from days spent in the sunshine. Sun spots, areas of redness, and uneven skin tone are common on the skin of older adults because we’re aging and changing.
You may see these as skin concerns you want to reduce or get rid of—not to erase the memories, but to simply feel better about your complexion. With a noninvasive and safe treatment, we can restore the appearance of your skin.
At Dermatology Center of McKinney, our experienced team uses the power of Lumenis M22 IPL to break up areas of hyperpigmentation and improve the appearance of the skin. Keep reading this post to discover how M22 serves as an uneven skin tone treatment in McKinney and how we treat common skin concerns.
Dark Spots and Hyperpigmentation
The M22 device emits controlled, broad-spectrum light to target areas of hyperpigmentation like dark spots, age spots, sun spots, and birthmarks. With your unique skin type in mind, Dr. Ralston uses the proper light filter to address each area of concern.
The pigmented skin cells absorb the light and convert it into heat to effectively damage the darker pigment. This process reduces the appearance of dark spots and effectively improves your complexion.

Vascular Lesions and Rosacea
When treating vascular lesions and rosacea, Dr. Ralston and the team use specified doses of light to comfortably treat your skin concerns.
Since rosacea is an inflammatory skin condition, we use gentle pulses of light to prevent any further irritation. Proteins in your blood vessels absorb the light energy, causing the vessels to shrink and reduce their red appearance. This process also works for broken capillaries, facial veins, and spider veins.

Acne and Acne Scarring
Specific wavelengths address acne-causing bacteria (p.acnes). M22 reduces acne-induced inflammation and oil production to help prevent new breakouts, while stimulating collagen production to improve the appearance of existing acne and acne scarring.
