PicoWay® Tattoo Removal in Brooklyn, NY

Clear Your Skin with Precision Laser Technology

At Skin Envy in Brooklyn, NY, we use the advanced PicoWay® laser to safely and effectively erase unwanted tattoos. This device releases ultra-short bursts of light energy that reach deep into the skin, breaking ink particles into tiny pieces that the body gradually removes through natural healing.

Because the PicoWay® system works at exceptional speed, it treats pigment without overheating the skin. The result is smoother healing, less irritation, and excellent fading of stubborn colors such as blue, green, and red. Suitable for every skin type, this treatment helps you achieve clear skin, whether you want a complete removal or a lighter canvas for a cover-up design.

How It Works

The PicoWay® laser emits pulses measured in picoseconds, trillionths of a second. These quick flashes fracture ink into micro-particles that are small enough for the immune system to clear. The process targets pigment at several depths within the skin while keeping the surrounding tissue protected.

Because the treatment relies on light rather than heat, it minimizes discomfort and allows faster recovery compared to older Q-switched lasers. With each visit, ink density decreases, and the tattoo gradually fades until it is barely visible or fully gone.

What to Expect During Treatment

Before starting, your provider will examine the tattoo’s size, shade, and placement to create a customized plan. The PicoWay® handpiece is then passed over the tattoo, sending controlled flashes of light directly into the pigment.

Most people describe the feeling as a quick snap against the skin. A numbing cream can be applied for additional comfort. Depending on tattoo size, sessions usually last between 15 and 45 minutes at our Brooklyn office.

Downtime and Aftercare

Recovery is simple and quick. Mild redness or swelling can appear for a few hours but generally fades within a day.

To keep the area healthy after treatment:

  • Gently cleanse and pat dry for the first 24 hours
  • Avoid sun exposure or tanning for one week
  • Do not scratch or peel flaking skin
  • Use the ointment recommended by your provider

You may return to regular activities immediately after your appointment.

Number of Treatments

Removing a tattoo is a gradual process that takes several visits spaced a few weeks apart. The total number depends on the design and ink quality.

  • Eyebrow tattoos: 3 to 5 sessions
  • Body tattoos: 6 to 12 sessions

Noticeable fading happens after each treatment, and full results appear over the following months as your body continues to clear the pigment.

Pricing

Pricing for larger or multicolored tattoos is based on size and pigment density. Your provider will outline the exact costs during your consultation.
