Laser Tattoo Removal with Candela PicoWay®

The PicoWay® is an FDA-cleared laser that uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to break down ink particles in the skin. These pulses create a photoacoustic effect (not thermal), shattering the ink into tiny particles that the body’s immune system can naturally flush away. This treatment is known for being faster, more comfortable, and safer than traditional laser tattoo removal methods.

 

At Royal You Med Spa, we offer advanced laser tattoo removal using the cutting-edge Candela PicoWay® system—one of the most powerful and effective technologies available for safely and precisely fading unwanted tattoos of all colors and skin types.

What Is the PicoWay® Used For?

PicoWay® is designed to treat:

  • Unwanted tattoos (black, multicolored, or resistant ink)

  • All skin types, including darker tones

  • Stubborn or previously treated tattoos

  • Professional or amateur tattoos

It can also treat certain skin irregularities like:

  • Pigmented lesions (e.g., age spots, sun spots)

  • Melasma

  • Acne scars and skin texture concerns

How Does the PicoWay® Work?

The PicoWay® delivers energy in trillionths of a second, targeting tattoo ink beneath the skin with precision. The laser energy shatters the ink into tiny particles without significantly heating the surrounding tissue. This means:

  • Faster clearance of ink

  • Less risk of scarring or skin damage

  • Fewer treatments needed for visible results

The number of sessions depends on factors like ink color, depth, age of the tattoo, and individual skin response.

Downtime and Recovery

Most patients experience minimal downtime. After treatment, the area may feel like a mild sunburn and appear red or swollen for a few hours to a couple of days. Some scabbing or light blistering is normal and part of the healing process.

You can typically return to your usual routine immediately, though it’s essential to protect the area and follow aftercare instructions for best results.

Potential Side Effects

While the PicoWay® is known for its safety and precision, side effects can include:

  • Redness, swelling, or tenderness

  • Blistering or crusting

  • Temporary skin lightening or darkening (hypo/hyperpigmentation)

  • Rarely, scarring or textural changes

Most side effects are mild and temporary, especially when aftercare instructions are followed carefully.

Aftercare Recommendations

To support healing and maximize results:

  • Keep the treated area clean and dry

  • Avoid picking or scratching any scabs or blisters

  • Apply a recommended ointment or moisturizer as directed

  • Avoid sun exposure—use SPF 30+ if the area is exposed

  • Avoid hot tubs, saunas, or intense workouts for 24–48 hours

  • Wear loose, breathable clothing over the treated area

Why Choose Candela PicoWay®?

  • Fewer treatments needed compared to traditional lasers

  • More comfortable with less heat and lower risk of scarring

  • Safe for all skin tones

  • Targets even stubborn ink colors like blues and greens

  • Clinically proven results with fast, effective clearance
