Common questions常见问题

StarWalker can be used for pigmentation, age spots, freckles, melasma, and tattoo removal. The wavelength and treatment mode are customized based on the pigment, tattoo colour, skin type, and treatment goal.

Pigmented spots can temporarily darken after treatment as the targeted pigment breaks down and moves toward the surface. The area may then become dry or lightly crusted before naturally flaking away. Avoid picking or scrubbing the treated area.

It depends on the type and depth of pigment. 3-5 sessions are usually recommended, although stubborn or deeper pigmentation may require additional sessions.

StarWalker has dedicated treatment protocols for melasma and pigmentation disorders. However, melasma is a chronic condition that can recur, so treatment should be conservative and combined with careful sun protection and an appropriate skincare plan.

Starwalker can be used on a broad range of skin tones, but settings need to be selected carefully to reduce the risk of unwanted pigment changes. At Rejuuv, a physician assesses your skin and helps determine the appropriate treatment settings based on your skin type and concern.

Keep the treated area gentle and well protected while it heals. Avoid picking, scrubbing, exfoliating, or using strong skincare actives until redness, dryness, or crusting has settled. SPF is essential, and direct sun exposure should be minimized, especially during the first few weeks, to reduce the risk of post treatment pigmentation.

More about Starwalker

The StarWalker is a revolutionary performing laser that’s in the Fotona family that uses photoacoustic rather than photothermolysis energy. Traditionally lasers use heat to treat pigmentation, however, studies have shown over and over again that it would create more pigmentation due to the inflammatory nature of how the skin reacts to heat. Thus, rather than using heat, the StarWalker uses acoustic shockwaves that breaks apart the melanosomes (skin’s pigmentation) and have the lymphatic system remove the pigments from the body naturally. The StarWalker is one of the only effective lasers in treating Melasma and hyperpigmentation. This is because the StarWalker harness the power of the Pico laser, nanolaser, and Q switch laser. Because of the highly controlled wavelengths and precision with micro pulses, StarWalker is safe for all skin types.

Starwalker is offered in our Toronto, Markham and North York medi spa.
