Say Goodbye to Unwanted Tattoos with Discovery Pico

Pre-Treatment Preparation

• Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning two weeks before your session
   
• Stop using self-tanners or harsh exfoliating products on the area
   
• Let us know if you’re taking any new medications or antibiotics
   
• Shave the area if it’s hairy, but don’t wax or pluck
   
• Stay hydrated — healthy skin responds better to laser treatments
   

👉 We’ll give you detailed, personalized instructions during your consultation to make sure your skin is ready.

During the Treatment

• Sessions usually last 15–30 minutes, depending on tattoo size and complexity
   
• You may feel a snapping sensation, similar to a rubber band against the skin
   
• We can use cooling methods to make you more comfortable
   
• Discovery Pico’s advanced technology targets ink with precision, minimizing impact on surrounding skin
   

👉 Most clients describe it as much more tolerable than they expected.

Immediately After the Treatment

• The area may look red, slightly swollen, or feel warm (like a mild sunburn)
   
• A small white “frosting” effect may appear — this is normal and temporary
   
• Apply a soothing ointment and keep the area clean and covered if needed
   
• Avoid swimming pools, saunas, or excessive sweating for 24–48 hours
   
• Protect the treated area from the sun with SPF 30+
   

👉 Mild side effects usually fade within a few days, and you’ll be ready for your next session in 6–8 weeks.
