The StarWalker Ultra-Performance Q-Switched Laser System sets a new standard in aesthetic versatility, combining four complementary wavelengths and 14 laser modalities. Designed to address a wide range of aesthetic applications, the system excels as a leading choice for tattoo removal, thanks to its high energy output, advanced color options, and proprietary FracTAT™ technology. Building on the global success of Fotona’s QX MAX, the StarWalker represents a significant leap forward, elevating performance to an even greater level.
At the heart of StarWalker’s innovation is its third-generation technology, which integrates Fotona’s VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology with revolutionary ASP™ capabilities. This combination adapts laser pulse structures to optimize biophotonic interactions with tissue, delivering unmatched precision. The system achieves an industry-first 10 J of Q-switched energy in a single MaQX pulse to effectively treat epidermal and dermal pigmented lesions. It also features long-pulse infrared VERSA3 and green VERDE™ modes for superior vascular treatment outcomes.
StarWalker® introduces the revolutionary ASP (Adaptive Structured Pulse) technology, setting a new benchmark for the medical and aesthetic laser industry. This third-generation advancement merges Fotona’s VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology with ASP’s ability to tailor laser pulse structures to the bio-photonic dynamics of tissue interaction, ensuring unmatched precision and effectiveness.
StarWalker’s innovative TMD (Transverse Mode Discrimination) laser oscillator technology, combined with ASP pulse control, delivers ultra-short 5-nanosecond Q-switched pulses. These pulses, consisting of high-energy bursts in trillionths of a second, produce a powerful photomechanical impact that breaks down tiny skin targets while safeguarding surrounding tissue. By uniting the high-energy efficiency of nanosecond lasers with the peak power precision of picosecond lasers, StarWalker achieves exceptional results across a wide range of applications.
The Fotona StarWalker laser system stands out as a high-performance solution, uniting the full spectrum of ultra-short pulse technologies in a single device. Featuring patented MaQX pulse modalities, it delivers powerful laser bursts that photoacoustically fragment skin pigments into smaller, easily eliminated particles. With its revolutionary ASP technology, StarWalker achieves up to 10 J of Q-switched energy in a single structured MaQX pulse, ensuring faster, more effective treatments.
MaQX Technology Highlights
Fotona Laser uses advanced laser technology to target various skin concerns. It works by delivering focused light energy to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and promote skin rejuvenation. This non-invasive treatment is effective for a range of aesthetic concerns.
Fotona treatments are generally well-tolerated and cause minimal discomfort. Patients may experience a slight sensation during the procedure, but it is typically not painful. The treatment is designed to be comfortable with little to no pain.
The number of Fotona sessions varies depending on the skin goals and concerns being treated. For optimal results, most people need 4 to 6 sessions, with each session spaced a few weeks apart.
Fotona can treat various skin concerns, including pigmentation issues (like melasma and freckles), acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture. It’s effective in addressing both superficial and deeper skin problems.
Yes, Fotona is effective for treating deep pigmentation issues such as melasma, sunspots, and freckles. It uses precise laser energy to break down pigments and lighten the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue.
