How PICOWAY

01

Picosecond pulse

The pulse is a thousand times shorter than a nanosecond pulse: pigment is broken up mechanically rather than burned away by heat.

02

Three wavelengths

532 nm treats bright pigments, 785 nm handles blue and green, and 1064 nm addresses deep pigment and darker phototypes.

03

Resolve handpiece

A fractional mode for rejuvenation, melasma and post-acne scarring — without damaging the skin surface.

04

Safe on darker skin

Minimal heating reduces the risk of post-treatment hyper- and hypopigmentation.

Frequently asked questions

What does the price depend on?

The price depends on the tattoo size and pigment colour. The doctor gives an exact quote after examining the area.

How many sessions are needed?

Pigment spots take 1–3 sessions. A tattoo takes 4–8 sessions on average, 6–8 weeks apart.

Is there any downtime?

Redness and pinpoint crusts may appear and clear within 3–7 days. Your normal routine is not affected.

Is it painful?

The sensation is brief and tolerable. A topical anaesthetic is used for tattoo removal.

Does the tattoo leave a mark?

Not with correctly chosen settings. Some pigments (white, skin-tone) clear less well — this is discussed in advance.

Are there contraindications?

Pregnancy, a fresh tan, photosensitising medication, a tendency to keloids and active inflammation in the area.
