Are you ready to move on from a tattoo that no longer fits your story? Whether it’s a name, a symbol, or a design that doesn’t represent you anymore, New Skin Medical Spa in Martinez, GA offers a modern, highly effective solution: laser tattoo removal using the Discovery Pico laser. Led by Dr. James Sherman, our clinic combines advanced technology with personalized care to give you the best possible results-safely and comfortably.
Why Discovery Pico Is a Game-Changer in Tattoo Removal
Advanced Picosecond Technology for Faster Results
Unlike older lasers that rely on nanosecond pulses, Discovery Pico delivers ultra-short bursts of energy in trillionths of a second. These powerful pulses break tattoo ink into tiny particles that your body can naturally flush away. The benefits?
● Faster fading: Noticeable results often begin in just a few sessions.
● Fewer treatments: Thanks to greater energy precision, fewer sessions are typically needed.
● Minimal discomfort: Most patients describe the sensation as a light snap or warm tingling.
● No downtime: Resume normal activities immediately after treatment.
Effective on All Tattoo Colors
While older lasers struggle with vibrant or light pigments, Discovery Pico is equipped to treat a full spectrum of ink colors, including:
● Traditional black and gray
● Bright colors like blue, green, purple, and yellow
● Pastels and neons that are notoriously hard to fade
Safe for All Skin Tones
Discovery Pico is ideal for Fitzpatrick skin types I through VI. It precisely targets ink without damaging surrounding skin, significantly lowering the risk of hyperpigmentation or scarring—making it a safe option for darker skin tones.
More Than Tattoo Removal: Skin Rejuvenation Benefits
As an added bonus, Discovery Pico stimulates collagen production during treatment. This can help improve skin texture, tone, and firmness over time. Patients often notice their skin looking smoother and healthier as their tattoo fades—an unexpected but welcome benefit.
What to Expect from Your Tattoo Removal Journey
Step 1: One-on-One Consultation
Your experience starts with a personalized consultation with Dr. Sherman. He’ll assess your tattoo, review your health history, and explain your treatment plan—including the expected number of sessions.
Step 2: Your Treatment Sessions
Each treatment is quick and tailored to your tattoo’s size and complexity:
● Preparation: The area is cleaned, and numbing cream is applied if needed.
● Treatment: Discovery Pico laser delivers rapid pulses to break down ink particles.
● Aftercare: A soothing ointment is applied, and you’ll receive simple aftercare instructions.
Most sessions take between 10–30 minutes.
Step 3: Healing and Aftercare Support
After treatment, the area may feel like a mild sunburn with temporary redness or swelling. You’ll want to:
● Avoid sun exposure and use SPF 30+
● Gently clean the area with mild soap
● Avoid heavy exercise for 24–48 hours
Our team is always available if you have any questions during the healing process.
Frequently Asked Questions
