Pigmentation and Tattoo Ink
The PicoWay laser device utilizes ultra-short pulses of laser energy to target and break down pigment particles in the skin.
The PicoWay laser generates pulses in significantly shorter intervals compared to traditional lasers, to deliver precise and targeted treatments.
Tattoo pigment particles embedded within the skin readily absorb the picosecond pulses, creating a photoacoustic effect that shatters them into smaller fragments. The body then absorbs and eliminates these ink or pigmentation fragments.

PicoWay® Laser Tattoo Removal – Frequently Asked Questions
What is PicoWay Laser Tattoo Removal?
PicoWay® is an advanced laser tattoo removal system that uses ultra-short picosecond pulses to shatter ink particles. It offers faster, more comfortable results with minimal downtime and is available at our medical spa in Corona, CA.
How does the Candela PicoWay laser work?
PicoWay uses powerful picosecond laser energy to break tattoo ink into microscopic particles. These are naturally flushed out by your body’s immune system, making it safe and effective for multicolor and deep tattoos.
Is PicoWay tattoo removal available in Corona, California?
Yes! Our Corona-based medical spa proudly offers Candela PicoWay tattoo removal treatments. We’re a top choice for patients in Riverside, Norco, Eastvale, and surrounding Inland Empire communities.
How many treatments will I need?
Most tattoos require 4 to 10 sessions depending on size, color, age, and ink depth. During your consultation at our Corona location, we’ll evaluate your tattoo and create a custom treatment plan.
Does PicoWay tattoo removal hurt?
Patients often describe the sensation as a quick snap, like a rubber band. At our Corona med spa, we do offer the use of numbing creams to minimize discomfort during PicoWay treatments.
How long is a PicoWay session?
Treatment time ranges from 10 to 30 minutes. Larger or more complex tattoos may take slightly longer, but our Corona team ensures sessions are quick and efficient.
Can PicoWay remove colored tattoos?
Yes. PicoWay uses multiple wavelengths, making it highly effective on colors like red, green, and blue—colors that are often resistant to traditional lasers.
Is there downtime after laser tattoo removal?
There’s little to no downtime. You may notice temporary redness, swelling, or slight blistering, but most clients return to normal activities the same day.
Is PicoWay safe for all skin types?
Yes, PicoWay is FDA-cleared and proven safe on all skin types, including darker complexions. Our certified laser technicians tailor every treatment for safety and optimal results.
How much does tattoo removal cost in Corona, CA?
Pricing varies based on tattoo size and complexity. Sessions generally range from $100 to $500 each, with limited package deals and financing options available at our Corona office.
Will my tattoo be fully removed?
Most tattoos can be completely removed or faded significantly. Factors like ink color, age, and location impact results, but PicoWay delivers faster fading compared to traditional lasers.
What side effects should I expect?
Mild redness, swelling, or scabbing are common. Our Corona specialists provide aftercare instructions to reduce the risk of irritation or hyperpigmentation.
Can I get a new tattoo over the same spot?
Yes! Once your skin has fully healed, you can apply a new tattoo or cover-up. Many clients use PicoWay to prep for clean, fresh tattoo artwork.
How soon after a tattoo can I get my first tattoo removal treatment?
We recommend waiting at least 6–8 weeks until your tattoo is fully healed before starting removal. This ensures your skin is ready and reduces the risk of scarring.
Why choose PicoWay over other lasers?
PicoWay uses faster energy bursts that target ink with more precision, requiring fewer sessions and causing less skin damage. It’s ideal for stubborn or colorful tattoos and safe for all skin tones.
Do you offer free consultations in Corona?
Yes! Schedule a complimentary PicoWay tattoo removal consultation with our experienced team in Corona, CA. We’ll assess your tattoo and answer all your questions.
How should I prepare for my laser tattoo removal session?
Avoid tanning, retinol, or exfoliants for at least 3 days before treatment. Arrive with clean, lotion-free skin. We’ll provide detailed pre-treatment guidance during your consultation.
Can PicoWay remove cosmetic tattoos (microblading)?
In some cases, yes. Cosmetic ink varies in pigment and depth, so we offer patch testing to determine whether PicoWay is appropriate for removing permanent makeup.
Is financing available for tattoo removal?
In some cases, we do offer monthly payment plans at our Corona med spa to help you achieve clear skin on your schedule.
