BLACK INK
Black ink is often the most responsive, but clearance still depends on depth, density, layering and tattoo age.

NOT EVERY TATTOO NEEDS TO STAY
SOMETIMES THE BEST NEXT STEP IS LESS INK
Whether the goal is complete removal, partial fading for a cover-up or softening unwanted cosmetic tattooing, PicoWay tattoo removal is designed to progressively break down tattoo pigment so the body can gradually clear it.
This is not a one-size-fits-all process. Ink colour, density, depth, age of the tattoo and the area treated all influence the plan.
Some tattoos clear faster than others. Some are best approached gradually. And sometimes fading — not full removal — is exactly the right strategy.
The goal isn’t drama. The goal is a cleaner canvas.
HOW PICOWAY WORKS
BREAK THE INK.
LET THE BODY DO THE REST
PicoWay uses ultra-short picosecond laser pulses to target tattoo pigment with high precision.
That energy helps shatter ink particles into smaller fragments, allowing the body to gradually clear them over time.
Because different inks respond differently, tattoo removal is usually performed as a series rather than a one-visit treatment.
Treatment breaks it up. Your body clears it out.

Removal strategy depends on the tattoo itself, not just on where it is.
COLOURED TATTOOS
Multi-colour tattoos may require a more individualized approach, as some pigments respond differently than others.

Full removal is not always necessary. Partial fading can create a cleaner base for a future cover-up tattoo.

WE DON’T PROMISE “ONE SESSION.”
Tattoo removal is a process.
Ink depth, layering, skin response, pigment colour, immune clearance and the age of the tattoo all affect how many sessions are needed.
Honest plan first. Progress second.

THE SERIES PLAN
THE NUMBER OF SESSIONS IS EARNED, NOT GUESSED.
No responsible tattoo removal page should tell everyone they need the same number of sessions.
Some tattoos fade beautifully. Others take patience. Cover-ups, layered tattoos and certain colours may require a longer plan.
We assess the tattoo, then build the treatment strategy around what is actually in the skin.
The ink tells us the timeline.
ASSESS FIRST.

BEFORE WE TREAT
THE CONSULTATION MATTERS HERE TOO.
We assess the tattoo, review the colours involved, look at density, history and whether the goal is full removal or fading.
This is especially important for cover-ups, older tattoos, reworked tattoos and cosmetic tattoo removal.
The better the plan, the better the removal journey.
Good removal starts with reading the ink properly.
AFTER TREATMENT
PROTECT THE AREA. LET IT HEAL.
EXPECT A REACTION.
Temporary redness, whitening, swelling, tenderness and skin sensitivity can occur after treatment.
- Keep the area clean
- Follow personalized aftercare
- Avoid unnecessary irritation
- Do not pick or scratch the area
LET THE BODY DO ITS JOB.
Tattoo removal is not only about what happens in the room — clearance continues between treatments.
- Allow proper spacing between sessions
- Protect the area from sun exposure
- Watch for abnormal irritation
- Contact us with concerns

PICOWAY TATTOO REMOVAL FAQ
WHAT IS PICOSECOND TATTOO REMOVAL? +
Picosecond tattoo removal uses ultra-short laser pulses to break tattoo ink into smaller particles so the body can gradually clear them.
HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED? +
The number of sessions depends on the tattoo: colour, depth, density, age, layering, body area and your individual response.
CAN PICOWAY REMOVE COLOURED TATTOOS? +
Selected coloured tattoos may be treated, but response varies by pigment. Some colours are easier to treat than others.
CAN I LIGHTEN A TATTOO FOR A COVER-UP INSTEAD OF FULLY REMOVING IT? +
Yes. In some cases, partial fading is the actual goal. This can help create a better base for a future cover-up.
CAN YOU TREAT MICROBLADING OR COSMETIC TATTOOING? +
Selected cosmetic tattoos, including unwanted brow pigment, may be assessed for removal or lightening.
DOES TATTOO REMOVAL HAPPEN IN ONE SESSION? +
Usually no. Tattoo removal is generally a progressive series, not a one-visit treatment.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER A SESSION? +
Temporary redness, whitening, swelling, sensitivity and skin irritation can occur. Aftercare matters.
WHAT IF I DON’T KNOW WHETHER I WANT FULL REMOVAL OR JUST FADING? +
That’s completely fine. We can assess the tattoo and help determine whether removal or cover-up fading makes the most sense.
