Check out this ghost of tattoo past disappear!

Pumped to help this client say goodbye to this backpiece effectively AND efficiently so far in only two sessions.

Erin always said that tattoo removal isn't about regret, it's about choice. It is about the freedom to evolve and the respect that every transition deserves.

As we open the doors to the studio again, we are carrying that philosophy in everything we do. We understand that for many of you, your journey removing your pigment is deeply personal. We arenโ€™t just here to operate a laser; weโ€™re here to hold space for your next chapter, just as Erin intended.

Taking care of your pigment is a responsibility we don't take lightly. Weโ€™re ready when you are.

The feeling has been described itโ€™s like a series of quick rubber band snaps to the skin. Sharp, but over in just a few seconds.

The great news is, we have the Zimmer at TCP which delivers a steady stream of cryogen chilled air that kills the heat while the Picoway works its magic keeping you comfy during your session.

Quick, precise and done before you have a chance to overthink it โšกโ„๏ธ

Itโ€™s often said that our hands tell the story of our lives - where weโ€™ve been and where we are going. Because the skin on our hands is particularly delicate, pigmentation (such as naturally occurring sun/age spots) and tattoos can evolve significantly over time, often shifting or changing colour.

Where most lasers rely on high-heat treatments that can compromise skin integrity, increase risk of scarring and a LOT of sessions (๐Ÿ‘€ $$$), TCPโ€™s PicoWay works different. By using ultra-short pulses and low heat, its magic when it comes to targeting pigmentation with extreme precision and a delicate touch.

Whether we are evening out your skin tone, removing stubborn spots, or helping you move into a new era of your life, PicoWay achieves incredible results in minimal sessions truly making your past, history.

Using the 730nm handpiece, Kate was able to lift significant colour in just one session for this client with no "angry" redness or swelling. The best part? Improved skin texture and boosted collagen are included as an added bonus!

How much will my treatment cost?

Pricing is determined by size, starting from $100. The great thing is, we remove the negative space when calculating your quote.

There are a few factors unique to you and your pigment which will determine how many treatments you will require, but at TCP we are determined to get you there in the shortest time safely possible.

The Picoway laser uses the highest peak power of any other laser on the market, this results in the most effective removal in fewer sessions, meaning the best value!

That First Session Magic โœจ

One session. One massive colour shift.

We see it all the time at TCP - a client walks in feeling stuck with their brows and walks out with a massive weight lifted.

Watching the PicoWay shatter pigment in real-time for our clients is easily one of the most satisfying parts of what we do. Whether your brows have shifted colour over the years or youโ€™re just ready to start your journey to total removal, the PicoWay has got you covered.

While treatment plan and results may vary dependent on a your own unique tattoo and skin type, using the PicoWay we can get you results you can see before you leave the shop.

Through some dedicated friends of Erin's and with a lot of support from her clients we have got the doors back open at TCP. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce the team.

First up is Kate. Most of you have will know her, have chatted to her via email or met her in the studio already for your treatment. She was trained by Erin, and honestly, sheโ€™s a magician. With her extensive background in the beauty industry, so sheโ€™s not just operating a laserโ€”she actually gets the science behind the skin. Whether itโ€™s a tattoo youโ€™re ready to lose or some pigmentation you want sorted, sheโ€™s the one you want in your corner.

Then thereโ€™s me, Al. Iโ€™ve spent the last few months deep in the technical side lately, making sure our Delorean is dialed in and performing. Iโ€™m mostly behind the scenes to ensure that our standards stay right where Erin set themโ€”at the very top.

And finally, the real boss: Spike. Same dog, same attitude. Still running the show.

Get in touch for your no obligation consult. We'd love to see you.
