Fotona FracTat™ Tattoo Removal
The document also covers the Fotona FracTat™ Tattoo Removal procedure, which combines fractional ablative and Q-switched photoacoustic techniques for effective tattoo removal. It emphasizes the benefits of using multi-color lasers for multicolor tattoos.
Specifications
The FracTat™ procedure uses fractional ablative laser handpieces and Q-switched pulses, with various handpieces like R28, R29, R58, R585, R650, FS20A, FS20B, FS20C, and FS50B, each tailored for specific applications.
Procedure
The process starts with drilling micro holes into the skin using a fractional ablative laser, which acts as pressure relief ducts for gases generated during the Q-switched laser pulse treatment, reducing the optical shielding effect and allowing deeper pigment penetration.
Advantages
FracTat™ technology enhances photoacoustic shockwave generation, reduces frosting and pressure on surrounding tissue, and allows multiple MaQX irradiations in a single session. It provides direct pigment removal via ablation and promotes healing of fractionated skin.
Key Benefits
The StarWalker system, featuring the MaQX peak energy and proprietary FracTat™ procedure, is highlighted as an industry-leading tattoo removal laser system, offering reliability, a quick-release mechanism for handpieces, automatic detection features, and a unified handpiece design for optimal safety and performance.

OPTOflex® Vacuum Cell Technology Reliability StarWalker is built on Fotona’s foundation of over 50 years of experience, with quality and reliability being one of the pillars of company’s commitment and reputation. Patented solutions for a homogenous beam profile Homogeneity of a laser beam profile ensures safety during treatment since laser energy is evenly distributed across the treated area. Epidermal damage is minimized and the risks of bleeding, tissue splatter and transient textural changes in the skin are decreased. Achieving homogeneous beam profiles has been a great challenge for the...
