What Is Laser Tattoo Removal?
Laser tattoo removal is a non-invasive process that uses focused pulses of light to break down tattoo ink particles beneath the skin. Once broken into smaller fragments, these particles are gradually cleared from the body through natural processes. At our Syracuse clinic, we use advanced, medical-grade laser systems including Candela PicoWay®, a picosecond laser designed for precision treatment and minimized skin impact
These technologies allow us to treat a wide range of tattoo colors and skin types with accuracy and safety.

How It Works: The Tattoo Removal Process
Each tattoo and each body responds differently to laser removal, which is why we tailor every treatment plan from the start. Here’s what to expect:
- Consultation & Assessment: We evaluate your tattoo’s size, age, ink density, and your skin type to develop your personalized treatment approach.
- Treatment Sessions: During each session, the laser delivers short bursts of energy that target the ink while preserving surrounding skin. Sessions are typically quick, depending on tattoo size.
- Healing & Fading: Your body gradually flushes out the broken-down ink between treatments. We space sessions to allow for proper skin recovery and optimal fading over time.
