What is Melasma?

Melasma is a common skin condition that results in dark, discoloured patches on the face. It is most often seen in women and is thought to be caused by hormonal changes, sun exposure, and certain medications. While melasma is not harmful, it can be very difficult to treat.

With that in mind, the award winning Starwalker MaQX system is a new, revolutionary treatment for melasma. It uses a combination of laser and light therapy to target the pigment cells that cause the brown patches. The laser breaks up the pigment cells, while the light helps to reduce inflammation and promote healing.

What Makes Our Starwalker Melasma Treatment Different?

Topical melasma creams formulated to lighten hyperpigmentation may not be safe or effective for all skin types. In addition, light energy from traditional ablative, fractionated lasers can scatter to unintended surface pigments. For these reasons, laser skin treatment has been avoided on darker skin due to the risk of post-inflammatory hypo- and hyperpigmentation.

Today, more and more people are looking for safe and effective ways to remove unwanted pigment from their skin. And there's good news—Advanced Laser Clinic's award winning Starwalker is one of the most advanced and effective melasma removal treatments available today.

Starwalker uses short bursts of energy to break up pigment without damaging the surrounding skin, allowing you to conveniently reap the results in just a few sessions. This means you can expect safe, precise, and problem-free pigment removal with little to no downtime.

After each treatment session, patients typically notice a significant reduction in pigment spots and a more even skin tone. So if you're looking for a way to clear up your blotchy facial pigment, Starwalker is definitely worth considering.

A Patented Technology that Effectively Treats Melasma for All Skin Types

The StarWalker Q-switched laser is a new and improved laser treatment that offers many benefits over traditional Q-switched lasers. One of the most significant benefits is reducing the “frosting effect” that can occur with traditional Q-switched lasers.

The frosting effect is a temporary whitening of the skin that occurs when the laser treatment disrupts the cells in the dermis, causing them to release gasses that lift the skin. This can create a barrier for subsequent pulses, making them less effective and increasing the potential for skin damage. The StarWalker Q-switched laser greatly reduces this effect, allowing for more effective and safer treatments.

Ultimately, the StarWalker laser is more effective at treating pigmented lesions than traditional Q-switched lasers. If you are considering Q-switched laser treatment, the StarWalker laser is a great option to consider. It offers many benefits over traditional lasers and can help you achieve the results you are looking for, so get in touch with us!
