Laser Tattoo Removal at Prejuve MedSpa

Laser tattoo removal is currently the most effective and widely used method for eliminating unwanted ink, utilizing advanced light-based technology to target pigment without damaging the surrounding skin. The process relies on a principle called selective photothermolysis, where specific wavelengths of light are absorbed by the tattoo ink. This energy causes the ink particles to heat up and shatter into microscopic fragments. Once broken down, the body’s immune system—specifically white blood cells—identifies these fragments as waste and gradually flushes them out through the lymphatic system over several weeks.

The Technology: Nanoseconds vs. Picoseconds

Picosecond lasers (like our Karma PicoSure) are the newer standard, delivering energy in trillionths of a second. These ultra-short bursts create a “photomechanical” effect, essentially “shattering” the ink into much smaller, dust-like particles that are easier for the body to clear.

What to Expect During Treatment

Removing a tattoo is rarely a “one-and-done” procedure. Most people require anywhere from 6 to 12 sessions, spaced at least 6 to 8 weeks apart to allow the skin to heal and the body to process the ink. The sensation is often described as a rubber band snapping against the skin. To manage this, our estheticians apply a topical numbing cream. Because our bodies can only purge and heal so much at one time, the size of the treatment area depends on how packed the ink is into the skin. For example, a blackout tattoo can only be removed one-palm-size at a time, but much larger areas can be worked at one time for faded, older tattoos, or illustrations with lighter shading or only linework.

I Had Lip Filler done by Dr Neelu Agarwal, it was the best experience I’ve had with facial injections! I’ve had lip filler 3 times before going here and my pain tolerance is very low but I was very comfortable the whole time and very numb! I barely felt a thing! I have M shaped lips which I’ve heard are hard to work with but she completely understood my vision for my lips and did beautiful.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five stars are simply not enough for the care I have received at Prejuve MedSpa! About six months ago, I underwent the Pico Laser Fractional Karma treatment for acne scars, skin resurfacing, and collagen building, followed by the Rejuran Tone-Up PDRN booster. The downtime was minimal—only about 24 hours—and the results have been incredible. My skin looks smoother, healthier, and more youthful than ever. Every patient who walks into our medical office comments on how glowing and refreshed my skin looks. I have also been using Alastin Restorative Skin Complex and Alastin Hydratint Sunscreen daily, which have helped maintain and enhance my results. In the past, I also had Morpheus8 and CoolPeel treatments, all recommended by Dr. Agarwal as part of a customized plan for my acne scarring. The combination of these treatments has truly transformed my skin. What sets Prejuve apart is the personalized approach and genuine care from the entire team. They take the time to educate, guide, and support their clients every step of the way. I could not be happier with my results and would highly recommend Prejuve to anyone looking to improve their skin or hair health.

Dr. Neelu Agarwal has completely transformed my skin, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand my concerns and created a personalized skincare regimen along with a series of microneedling treatments tailored specifically for me. I followed her recommendations, and the results have exceeded my expectations. My skin is smoother, brighter, firmer, and more even-toned, with a noticeable improvement in texture, pores, and overall radiance. What truly sets Dr. Agarwal apart is her expertise, thoughtful approach, and genuine commitment to helping her patients achieve healthy, beautiful skin through treatments that actually work. She doesn’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions—she develops a plan that is right for you. I highly recommend Prejuve Medspa to anyone looking for exceptional skincare guidance and outstanding results.

Amazing team of doctors! I visited in December 2025 for a consultation regarding my dark under-eye circles, and Dr. Neelu carefully assessed my skin before recommending the most suitable treatment for my skin type — PRP. So far, I’ve completed two sessions, and the results have been incredible. My kids even said, “Mama, your eyes used to be black, now they’re brown!” 🙂 I’m truly grateful to Dr. Neelu and her wonderful team for guiding me toward the right treatment. I never imagined I could be free from my stubborn dark circles, but here I am — finally confident and happy with my skin 🙂
