Pico Tattoo Removal

Conveniently located to serve Ocean County and Toms River

PICOWAY® TO WOW!

Eliminate your tattoo the PicoWay®. Pico tattoo removal in Toms River and Manahawkin, NJ, delivers laser light in an ultra short pulse picosecond to shatter your tattoo ink particles away, regardless of skin type.

We are the first to offer this groundbreaking treatment in Ocean County and one of a few practices in all of New Jersey.

How is a PicoWay® tattoo treatment different?

Tattoo lasers deliver light energy to fragment your tattoo ink. How that light is delivered makes all the difference; either with a nanosecond laser (a billionth of a second) or picosecond laser ( a trillionth of a second). The PicoWay® laser is 100 times faster which blasts apart an ink molecule just by the impact. A nanosecond laser is slower and it generates heat predominantly to eliminate a tattoo. The difference between the two lasers is astounding.

With PicoWay® you will need fewer treatments, have more complete elimination of your tattoo, less discomfort, and better safety.

The tattoo removal process requires a series of treatments at 6-8 week intervals. The time between treatments is needed as the tattoo is naturally eliminated by the body.

What Happens During a Pico Tattoo Removal Session?

If you are approved for Pico tattoo removal, your treatment sessions will take place in the convenience of one of our Ocean County locations. The treatment itself typically takes about 15-20 minutes, but this depends on the size and complexity of the tattoo.

First, a topical anesthetic will be placed on each treatment site to minimize your discomfort during the procedure as much as possible. Then the device’s handpiece is gradually moved across each tattoo, allowing the laser energy to penetrate through the skin and break up the pigments below. The device can be adjusted between two laser wavelengths to target a broad spectrum of pigment colors.

After Your Treatment Sessions:

Once each Pico appointment is complete, you should be able to return to your regular routine immediately. The skin will still be healing, so you’ll likely be asked to follow these steps for proper recovery until otherwise directed:

Are Pico treatments more expensive?

Pico treatments can cost less than you think while generally taking fewer sessions to remove a tattoo.

PicoWay® -We believe that this is the best tattoo removal laser treatment available.

Actual treatments may take more or less treatment sessions. The number of treatments depends on the size of the tattoo, type of ink, amount of ink, and number of colors. Complicated designs and larger tattoos tend to take longer to treat.

Total treatments at 8 week intervals 12 6
Time to complete removal 2 years 1 year
