What Is PicoWay Tattoo Removal?
PicoWay is an advanced laser system that uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to target and break down tattoo ink. Unlike traditional lasers that heat the ink, PicoWay delivers energy so rapidly that it creates a photoacoustic effect, shattering the ink into much smaller particles.
These tiny ink particles are then more easily and efficiently cleared away by the body's lymphatic system. This results in faster tattoo clearance, fewer treatment sessions, and is effective on a wider range of tattoo colors, including stubborn blues and greens.

What to Expect
During your PicoWay tattoo removal session, a topical numbing cream may be applied to enhance comfort. The laser delivers ultra-short pulses of energy to the tattoo, which feels like quick snaps against the skin. Sessions are typically brief, ranging from 15 to 30 minutes depending on the tattoo size.
After treatment, you may experience temporary redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a mild sunburn. Blistering or scabbing can occur, which is a normal part of the healing process. We will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.

Frequently Asked Questions
PicoWay uses ultra-short picosecond (trillionths of a second) pulses of energy to target tattoo ink. These pulses shatter the ink into tiny particles that are then naturally eliminated by the body. This technology is highly effective for a wide range of ink colors and types.
The number of sessions varies depending on the tattoo's size, age, color, ink type, and location. Most tattoos require a series of treatments, typically 6-10 sessions, spaced 6-8 weeks apart. During your consultation, we will provide a personalized estimate.
Most patients describe the sensation as similar to a rubber band snapping against the skin. We use topical numbing cream and a cooling device to minimize discomfort during the procedure. The treatment is generally well-tolerated.
Downtime is minimal. You may experience temporary redness, swelling, and mild blistering or scabbing for a few days to a week after treatment. It's important to keep the treated area clean and protected from sun exposure.
You will notice fading after each session, with significant improvement becoming apparent after a few treatments. The tattoo will continue to fade over the weeks following each session as your body clears the shattered ink particles.
PicoWay is highly effective on a broad spectrum of ink colors, including stubborn blues and greens, as well as black ink. Its multiple wavelengths allow for comprehensive removal of multi-colored tattoos.
Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, and blistering or scabbing. These are normal parts of the healing process. Serious side effects like scarring or permanent pigment changes are rare.
Avoid sun exposure on the tattoo area for at least 2 weeks prior. Shave the area if necessary. Inform your provider about any medications you are taking. Come to your appointment with clean, lotion-free skin.
Once a tattoo is successfully removed with PicoWay, the results are permanent. The ink particles are shattered and naturally eliminated by your body, preventing the tattoo from reappearing.
