How it works
The pulse shatters ink. The body clears it.
Ultra-short pulses break pigment into smaller particles. Surrounding skin is left alone. Fading is gradual. Some tattoos may leave a faint shadow.
Permanent makeup
Lip liner, brows, and other cosmetic tattoos.
A planned series
Spacing treatments 8+ weeks allows the lymph system clear what was shattered. Rushing sessions does not speed clearance.
Results
Body ink and permanent makeup.

The visit
What to expect.
Consultation
Ink color, depth, age, location, and skin tone.
Numbing
Most areas will require numbing. Topical numbing is used so the visit stays tolerable.
Treatment
15–60 minutes (incliuding numbing time) for most tattoos. Then you can return to your day.
After
Redness, swelling, sometimes blistering may occur. Keep it clean and covered in bacitracin or vaseline. No sun or heat exposure on the site.
FAQ
Common questions.
Can every tattoo come all the way off?
Most fade a great deal. Some leave a shadow. Color, depth, and how the ink was deposited all matter.
How many sessions?
Often 5–10. Dense or multi-color work can take more. Sessions are spaced so the body can clear ink.
Does it work on green and blue?
PicoWay is used for those colors.
Can I work the same day?
Usually yes. If the site swells, keep it covered and skip heat and workouts and sauna for several days.
When can I tattoo the same spot again?
Wait until the last session has healed — typically 6–8 weeks after the final visit.
How is pricing handled?
Quoted by size and ink after we see the piece. Current offers are on the specials page.
