A Consultation-First Approach
Assess
Review your skin, treatment area, pigment or ink characteristics, previous treatments, and goals.
Plan
Discuss the approach, settings, session expectations, cost, alternatives, and reasons treatment may need to be delayed.
Treat
Follow the practice’s preparation and eye-protection instructions before treatment begins.
Protect
Follow your aftercare, skin-care, healing, and sun-protection instructions after treatment. Report unexpected reactions promptly.
Two Ways to Explore PicoFY
Tattoo Removal
Tattoo fading depends on more than the size of the tattoo. Ink color, density, depth, layering, location, skin type, previous treatments, and scarring can all influence the process.
Published size-based pricing is available below so you can review the starting cost before your consultation.
Skin Rejuvenation
PicoFY can also be used for selected skin and revitalization treatments.
Your consultation can address your skin type, goals, previous treatments, sun exposure, expected response, and aftercare before treatment is planned.
How PicoFY Treatment Works
01
Target
The laser directs very short pulses toward selected tattoo ink or pigment using parameters chosen for the specific concern.
02
Fragment
The rapid energy helps break targeted pigment into smaller particles while limiting heat exposure to surrounding tissue.
03
Clear
Your body gradually clears the fragmented pigment, so visible changes can continue to develop in the weeks following treatment.
04
Reassess
Some concerns may require a series of treatments. Tattoo removal commonly involves multiple treatments spaced over time, with response varying from person to person.
Real Examples From PicoFY Treatments
The before-and-after images provide examples of visible changes following treatment. Individual results can differ based on treatment timing, number of sessions, skin type, lighting, treatment settings, and personal response.
Acne-Scar Appearance
One supplied comparison shows a change in the appearance of acne scarring following treatment.
This example does not establish the number of sessions, treatment timeline, or expected outcome for another person.
Selected Pigment
One supplied comparison shows a reduction in visible skin pigment.
Pigment type, skin type, triggers, and treatment response all play a role in treatment planning.
Tattoo Over Scar Tissue
One supplied comparison shows reduced tattoo pigment with some residual textural change.
Tattoo fading should not be presented as scar removal.
Individual results vary. No result, complete clearance, or scar reduction can be guaranteed.

PicoFY and Pricing Questions, Answered
PicoFY delivers very short laser pulses that target tattoo ink or selected pigment and fragment it into smaller particles while limiting heat spread to surrounding skin. The body gradually clears fragmented pigment, so visible change develops over time rather than instantly. Treatment settings, intervals, comfort, and the number of sessions depend on the concern, skin type, treatment area, and response.
InMode states that PicoFY is indicated for unwanted tattoos, benign pigmented lesions, wrinkles, and acne scars. The practice also lists tattoo removal, full-face and face-and-neck revitalization, hands, surgical and acne scars, knees, chest or décolleté, back, and consultation for pigment or melasma concerns. Suitability varies and requires assessment.
Candidacy requires an individualized review of the concern, skin type, treatment area, current skin condition, relevant medical and medication history, prior treatment, sun exposure, healing history, and goals. The clinician or appropriately qualified treatment team should also discuss alternatives, risks, expected course, and aftercare. A website description cannot clear someone for treatment or predict an outcome.
Complete removal cannot be guaranteed. Tattoo color, depth, density, location, layering, skin type, prior treatment, scarring, and healing response can influence the process, and multiple sessions are common. “Complete clearance” is a package name in the supplied price guide; it must not be represented as a promise of complete tattoo or scar removal.
Published per-session prices are $225 for extra-small tattoos under 2 inches, $275 for small tattoos from 2–5 inches, $375 for medium tattoos from 5–10 inches, and $450 for large tattoos of 10 or more inches. Five-session packages range from $1,148 to $2,295, and packages labeled complete clearance range from $1,440 to $2,880. Confirm size, candidacy, expected sessions, and current total during a personalized consultation.
There is no universal number of sessions or interval. The plan depends on the concern, treatment area, skin type, pigment or tattoo characteristics, previous treatment, healing response, and clinical assessment. The practice should provide an individualized recommendation only after consultation and should avoid promising a treatment count, timeline, or degree of improvement.
Comfort, skin response, and recovery vary by treatment area, settings, concern, and individual factors. The consultation should cover comfort measures, expected sensations, skin response, aftercare, activity and sun-exposure guidance, follow-up timing, and reasons to contact the office. We do not publish a universal pain-free or no-downtime claim.
The supplied price guide lists $225 per session for extra-small tattoos under 2 square inches, $300 for small tattoos from 2–5 square inches, $375 for medium tattoos from 5–10 square inches, and $450 for large tattoos of 10 or more square inches. Listed five-session packages range from $1,148 to $2,295, and packages named “clearance” range from $1,440 to $2,880. Confirm size, candidacy, expected sessions, package terms, and the current total during a personalized consultation; prices and terms may change.
The supplied guide lists a single session at $750 for full-face revitalization, $1,250 for face and neck, $400 for hands and surgical or acne scars, $500 for knees, $600 for chest or décolleté, and $1,250 for back. Listed three-session packages range from $1,080 to $3,500. Prices may change, and a consultation is required to discuss the treatment area, goals, candidacy, expected course, and current total.
“Clearance” is the supplied price guide’s package name. It is not a promise that a tattoo will be completely removed or that scarring will resolve. Review the package’s current terms, including sessions, price, and any other conditions with the office before deciding.
The supplied examples show changes in acne-scar appearance, selected pigment, and tattoo pigment with residual scar texture. They are examples, not promises of a particular result. Lighting, position, timing, treatment count, skin type, concern, and individual response can differ.
Melasma can respond unpredictably, and heat or inflammation may aggravate pigment in some people. Technology alone does not guarantee a safe or successful result. An individualized review of skin type, pigment pattern, triggers, prior treatment, sun exposure, and aftercare is important before any laser plan.
The clinician or treatment team should review the treatment-specific risks, possible skin response, alternatives, preparation, aftercare, follow-up plan, and reasons to contact the office before consent. Do not use the website as a substitute for individualized instructions or as a self-screening checklist. For symptoms that may require urgent or emergency care, do not wait for a public form, ordinary email, or text response.
You may pay directly or explore optional Cherry financing after you review the current price list, complete a personalized consultation, and know the final purchase amount. Approval, available amount, APR, term, down payment, payment schedule, promotional conditions, and total repayment depend on current lender disclosures and eligibility. Financing does not determine candidacy or guarantee a result.
