Fotona StarWalker MaQX in Istanbul is available at 2 hospitals in the Voumed network.

Fotona StarWalker MaQX is an advanced aesthetic laser system designed to treat pigment and tattoos with very high precision. It works with Q-switched Nd:YAG and KTP lasers and can fire extremely short bursts of light, including picosecond and high-energy nanosecond pulses across several wavelengths. Because the energy is delivered in such brief, powerful flashes, the laser shatters pigment particles while sparing the surrounding skin, which means effective treatment with short recovery and minimal heat damage.
