The PicoWay system is a high power laser with ultra short pulses that shatters tattoo ink, but leaves the outer layer of the skin intact.
The PicoWay laser treats a wide range of tattoo colors across a broad range of skin types. Over a series of brief treatments, the PicoWay laser can eliminate most tattoos.
We lightened up a large, shoulder wrapped tattoo with heavily saturated black ink and bright colors that had already been a cover up attempt twice before. Shown here is four sessions with our Picoway technology. One more session to go and this client is on their way to a new tattoo!
“So happy I found The Change! Thank you for the results so far! Five sessions and my tattoo is almost gone! They are the best and use the top of the line laser, the Picoway.”
This client had a relatively new tattoo on his chest pectoral that was just not what he had envisioned. We were able to lighten up the tattoo in just two sessions.
“10/10 experience! Super professional, understanding, and honest!! Michele knows what she’s doing and is upfront with you about what to expect. I really appreciated that. I’ve had two sessions so far and my tattoo is almost gone! I am able to move forward with a new tattoo sooner than expected."
First time clients often feel anxious, nervous, or even scared. Here at The Change, our skilled professionals deliver safe and effective removal treatment to clients with outstanding results and care.
“Thank you, thank you. This was a process that was the least painful as it could be. I felt cared for in competent hands. Everyone go see Michele at The Change.”
After three successful sessions on a large, upper thigh, amateur tattoo, this client is on her way to a fresh new updated professional tattoo in a few months after her last session.
“As any young person, I made mistakes and got my first tattoo by an amateur artist. Please do your research before getting a tattoo. My tattoo was a large portrait on my upper thigh. I contacted The Change and was able to have a free consultation after emailing a photo. I arrived at the tattoo studio/removal clinic for my first session where I was greeted by friendly staff and my laser technician Michele. The shop is clean, modern, with a relaxing atmosphere. I was informed from start to finish including aftercare and helpful suggestions on what I can do post treatment to help remove my ink faster between treatments. I’ve just had my third session and am well on my way to a new and improved professional tattoo! Thank you Change so much!”
This client came to us wanting to remove all the shading on her tattoo. We were able to achieve that with the precision of the Picoway laser.
“Best decision ever! My tattoo didn't turn out as expected. I wanted it to look cleaner with more contrast and they were able to remove all the shading in just one session!”
From start to finish we have all your tattoo removal needs covered! This client after three sessions and a few more months for healing and lightening was able to consult with one of our talented artists and get a beautiful piece of art.
“Although this is the only place I’ve tried out for this sort of service, I would never go anywhere else now! Unreal results which way exceeded my expectations. I feel so much better after having just three sessions. I can now get a beautiful new tattoo. Also, they are on site within First Class Tattoos. Which is even more convenient when you get the go ahead to speak with an artist for your new future tattoo. Thank you Michele and The Change!!”
Names are the most common type of tattoo to be removed. Shown here is after four treatments.
“I came in with an ex-girlfriend's name on my neck. Brilliant right?!! My fiancé does not think so either. The Change is helping remove this huge mistake. They are professional, friendly, and very good at what they do. Now my ex is just a faded memory! One more to go, so pumped!”

Two cutting edge technologies are combined to clear more color in a faster treatment. This means better clearance, fewer sessions, and less ghosting than other system.
Picoway laser technology effectively removes all common colors tattoos, either amateur or professional. This new technology targets both large and small tattoo particles simultaneously, breaking them into tiny particles that are naturally removed by your body. The laser only targets the ink, and will not harm the surrounding skin.
The number of treatments needed depends on the tattoo itself, the area of body and the background skin color. Location matters: The closer the tattoo is to the heart the better circulation, therefore better results. More colorful tattoos and and greater surface area usually require more treatments. Amateur tattoos are typically not as deep as professional ones, and are easier to remove.
A treatment can range from 2-5 sessions to lighten up for a new tattoo or up to 8-12 for complete removal. Minimum of 6-8 weeks between sessions with more time as your treatment progresses to allow your body time to get rid of the ink particles.
Immediately after treatment, you will see a whitish “frosting” over the tattoo. The skin will often swell in the area of the tattoo, accompanied by mild redness. The frosting, swelling and redness will resolve in a matter of hours. The tattoo may crust or blister as the body repairs itself. This will resolve naturally. The tattoo will fade gradually in the following weeks as your body clears the ink.
During the session, you will hear the laser fire as loud, audible popping sounds, then feel heat over the general area of the skin. The treated area will feel as it it were sunburned.
Picoway laser tattoo removal treatments are not suitable for everyone and carry some risks. Persons known to form skin keloids may be more prone to scarring after any skin trauma, including laser administration to the skin. Persons with dark skin may be at increased risk of hypopigmentation. Hypo and hyper-pigmentation are a common risk of treatment.
We are open 7 days a week and working flexible hours.
