PicoSure Tattoo Removal In Kailua Kona & Waimea

PicoSure is a revolutionary technology in the world of tattoo removal. As the world’s first picosecond laser and the only advanced tattoo removal laser with PressureWave technology, PicoSure works with your body to remove unwanted ink effectively and safely.

How Does PicoSure Work?

PicoSure delivers laser energy that specifically targets tattoo ink, resulting in the fragmentation of the ink particles without harming the surrounding tissue. It works effectively on multi-colored tattoos, including blues and greens, black ink, and even stubborn, previously treated tattoos. PressureWave technology is used to deliver ultra-short pulses of specialized energy to targeted ink particles. These pulses are so rapid they cause a change in pressure that breaks ink apart into tiny dust-like particles. These tiny particles are then absorbed by the lymphatic system, a critical part of your body’s immune system, and eliminated naturally.

What Does the Procedure Feel Like?

Laser tattoo removal with PicoSure has been described as feeling similar to the actual tattooing process. We understand that some patients may feel some discomfort, which is why we offer topical numbing cream, lidocaine injections, and cool air with our Zimmer Chiller to make your experience more comfortable.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The number of treatments needed is dependent on variables such as ink characteristics, size of the tattoo, location on the body, and lifestyle habits. Treatments typically occur every 6-8 weeks, and our expert team will develop a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.

What is the Downtime?

After the procedure, you may expect a sunburn-like sensation once the numbing effect has worn off. It is recommended that you avoid direct sunlight or the ocean until the area treated is fully healed. Some patients may experience blistering as a side effect.

Dr. Monica Scheel’s office is by far the best in all of Hawaii. I want to share some of my experiences with her and her team: I work as an injector on Kauai so I have had the wonderful opportunity to train under Dr. Monica. She is so thorough, knowledgeable, and next level when it comes to aesthetic medicine. She is more than up-to-date on all the latest techniques and products and she is such a fabulous mentor. I feel so lucky to learn from her. I truly believe she is the best in Hawaii and if I’m getting any work done, I’m 100% going to her! Now, for the dermatology side of things, my fiancé and I are in need of our annual skin check and so with him being high risk for skin cancer, I wanted to make sure I was taking him to the best provider I could and that is absolutely at Dr. Monica’s office. He saw Natalie, PA and she was amazing. She was super thorough. She educated us on changes we can make for our skin health and took such great care of both of us! I highly recommend Natalie! And I must commend Dr. Monica‘s team, from check-in to check out, they make the process so smooth and make you feel very comfortable and right at home. They surely do deserve every bit of praise as they are just incredible all-around. At a recent training that Dr. Monica hosted and was the lead trainer at, I ended up being one of her models to showcase her skill set and the Merz portfolio products. Like I said, she is amongst one of the few people I would trust injecting my face as an injector myself. She so elegantly was able to enhance the contours of my cheeks, give me some amazing jawline definition with Radiesse, and greatly reduced the appearance of my acne scars as well. Her technique is second to none and I’m so ecstatic about my results! Her medical assistants made the process so easy and pain-free. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Monica Scheel!

Tatiana is one of my #esthibesties at Dr Monica’s office. I did a beauty day with her and got: dermplane, diamond glow, teeth whitening and peel on my arms and legs! I felt so cared for and loved my glow-up!

Tina Schor

I had my second microneedling session with Tatiana. I already see results from my first treatment, and I'm excited to see what happens with the second. Tatiana is very nice, professional, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend her and Stephanie from Dr. Scheel's office.

Tatiana Krause did my facial peel today and this was THE most relaxing experience I have ever had, Tatiana is incredibly knowledgeable and honest. She gives you a thorough assessment of your skin, offers recommendations on products, and gives you tangible goals to work towards in. I felt like everything she did and recommended was in the best interest of my appearance. Big Mahalo to Tatiana was so nice to talk about mainland life since we both were living in the mainland before we moved to/back to Hawaii. I look forward to coming back again such a very pleasant and invigorating experience! Aloha Renee Wong

Shania is AMAZING !!! She was so supporting and attentive during my teeth whitening appointment. Her calm demeanor kept me calm since I wasn’t really sure what to expect. I had taken some ibuprofen before the appointment as suggested on the handout. Wasn’t sure how painful the process was going to be. I felt no pain during the experience. There were four 12 minute periods when the blue lights were doing their thing. Shania continued to ask me if I was doing OK throughout. She would keep me posted on the timing. The procedure was so relaxing I almost fell asleep. haha… I am impressed with the results. I purchased the “home kit” to continue the whitening process. MAHALO SHANIA for a GREAT EXPERIENCE !!! ALSO - Would like to give a shout out of THANKS to Sandra and Dr Monica during my recent annual skin check. I appreciated their empathetic support when I told them my Mom had recently passed. Mom had been a patient of Dr Monica’s for almost 30 years. Thank you Sandra and Dr Monica for your kind and comforting words. I asked Sandra if she would be my “two for one partner” for the September Special since Mom had passed. Dr Monica was so kind and supportive of me wanting to do something good for me she said I could have the “2 for 1” special with just me. MAHALO DR MONICA !!!

This week was a terrible week for me as I had faced a very unpleasant experience from a supposedly experienced injector from an advanced medical training certification class. I was very anxious, miserable, frustrated and in so much pain. Thankfully, Dr Monica Scheel and her team came to my rescue. They took me in right away and made me comfortable in my time of distress. They were knowlegeable, professional and most of all--kind hearted. Dr Scheel is truly an angel sent by God. As a provider myself, I know the amount of special time she spent ensuring of my well-being and in reaching out to other colleagues to help me with my case. She indeed has the heart to help others. Words cannot express my gratitude to the service I received from Dr Scheel and her team. I highly recommend her clinic.

Shania did my teeth whitening! She was very detail oriented and lightened my teeth 10 shades! I didn’t have any sensitivity! I had a great experience and immediately got compliments on my white teeth! As always I felt the genuine caring! Shania you are going to be a great esthetician!

The staff’s dedication to providing top-notch service was evident in every interaction. Love them all but my girl is Tricia and her team is rockstars. This team is unmatched in the industry of dermatology and aesthetics . If you’re looking for a place where exceptional service is not just a promise but a guarantee, look no further. I can’t recommend this establishment highly enough—it’s a model of what excellent service should be. --- Let me know if you'd like any changes or additional details!

Marianne Rieux

I was impressed with the thorough examination by the assistant, and it’s documentation on an official record. This is the second time I visited this doctor and was surprised to find they had kept the record of my prior visit of last year and compared it during my current examination. I really appreciate that, and it made me confident that their diagnosis of no problems was accurate, given the fact they had examined me about a year ago. Thanks so much.

I had the pleasure of receiving the Skin Vive treatment from PA Tricia, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The treatment is a fantastic complement to a Botox treatment, and it left my skin looking and feeling rejuvenated. Tricia's expertise and gentle approach made the experience even better. Additionally, her MA Shania was incredibly helpful and attentive throughout the process. I highly recommend Tricia and Skin Vive for anyone seeking a refresh for tired looking skin. Five stars all the way!

Aloha, I rarely leave reviews for anything, but this is an exception. I recently had an appointment with Dr. Monica's Kona office for Lazer Hair Removal. I have had a problem with my facial hair most all my life and just dreaded waking up every morning having to shave since I was 12yo. Now this really wasnt a problem, more of a daily inconvenience. Several years ago, I started my new life and have been in transition MtF. My daily ritual of waking up and staring into the mirror and seeing the return of my former self poking through on my face was as if the mirror was laughing at me. I finally had enough and found Dr. Monica Scheel's office in Kona and booked an appointment. When I arrived, completely with my "nakid" face and some fear, I opened the office door to be greeted by a wonderful staff that made me feel very welcome and addressed my concerns and set me to ease immediately. The staff was thorough and very professional which I appreciated very much. In a short time, a wonderful technician greeted me and escorted me into the treatment room. The room was very clean and had a nice comfortable feeling, again which I appreciated. My technician Brittany explained everything and answered my questions in a matterafact and knowledgeable way. She had a wonderful empathy when I flinched a couple times and really made me feel at ease. My procedure was quick and relatively painless. My check out was wonderful as the staff went through my options for pay and future bookings, I felt no pressure and a true sense of caring from them all. I was given instructions of what to expect the next few days and how to deal with any problems I had. The next day, I woke up and rubbed my face to feel nothing, ONLY the smooth skin of the areas worked on. No stubble, nothing... I couldn't believe it. it was just gone, like magic. I cried it was such an overwhelming experience not to feel/see anything on my face. I just cant describe this feeling in words... Anyway, as a TransFemale, its a true miracle to see the outside reflect what I feel inside, its just unreal. Thank you to everyone at Dr. Monica's office and epically Brittany for my experience and outcome. I am really looking forwards to completing my series of appointment here at this office and HIGHLY recommend to anyone out there thats thinking of having this kind of work done to do so at this office. Truly grateful. Linda

Today I had the pleasure of experiencing a Diamond Glow Facial with Tahila, and I couldn't wait to share my fantastic experience! From start to finish, it was an absolute delight. Tahila's expertise and professionalism were immediately evident as she guided me through the process. She took the time to explain every step of the Diamond Glow Facial, making me feel at ease and well-informed about the treatment. Her sweet and caring demeanor created a relaxing atmosphere, which greatly enhanced the overall experience. As soon as the facial began, I could sense that I was in the hands of a true skincare expert. Tahila's technique was gentle yet effective, leaving my skin feeling incredibly soft, clean, and rejuvenated. The Diamond Glow Facial exceeded my expectations, and I could visibly see and feel the difference in my skin immediately. What sets Tahila apart is not only her skill but also her passion for what she does. Her knowledge of skincare and willingness to share tips and advice personalized to my skin type were invaluable. It's rare to find someone who is both highly skilled and genuinely caring in their approach, and Tahila embodies both of these qualities. In summary, my Diamond Glow Facial with Tahila was a truly enjoyable experience that left my face feeling revitalized and glowing. I can't thank Tahila enough for her exceptional service and warm hospitality. I wholeheartedly recommend Tahila's services to anyone seeking top-notch skincare treatments and a genuinely pleasant experience. Thank you, Tahila, for making my day and my skin shine brighter! I'll definitely be returning for more of your wonderful treatments in the future.

During cosmetic filler procedures, I get dizzy (and have even fainted in the past). I let them know at my first visit that despite my best efforts and desires, these things were somehow just very hard for me. Patsy and her team were the most skilled and caring I have ever encountered and for the first time, I truly had a positive experience!! They took the time necessary and truly know their stuff. Patsy has so much experience and training that it was easy to relax knowing I was in good hands. She prescribed the perfect treatment and was thoroughly engaged in my concerns and wishes. It was awesome to feel like I wasn’t just being rushed or upsold ! I was treated with respect and care and each question was clearly answered . The medical assistant with me was so assuring and tender, while clearly being impeccably trained and able to read everything that was needed to help the procedure move as quickly and smoothly as possible. Top notch professionals- the absolute best ever! ….and I am thrilled with my results! My new favorite place ❤️

I had my first dermaplane and I was little nervous about it, but she answered any questions and concerns I had. My skin and I are very happy with the results and would definitely go back and do more treatments with Tahila

If I could, I would post 10 stars. These folks have diagnosed atypical melanoma, and several other types of skin cancer for me. My skin issues manifest differently from most fair skin types. And they've gotten them all through due diligence. It takes a staff that gives 100%. I am so grateful! Beth. 🙂

It felt weightless and clean. Tahila was amazing and professional we had great conversation throughout the whole process. She had great communication skills each step of the way. I recommend it to everyone 10/10. Shout out to the DJ of the day the music was on point it had me relaxed!

Lisa Kemp

Been going here for close to 10 years now and it’s my most favorite doctors to see. Most amazing staff, addressing all your derm concerns, go above and beyond in thoroughly explaining conditions, procedures and your available options of various treatment. They take pride in their patients and keeping them informed in maintaining your skin for your health as well as keeping you confident in its appearance. Cosmetic treatments your are blessed with the best of the best, these are all a group of perfectionist, amazingly skilled woman in everything they do…Ive had Beverly Hills celebrity plastic surgeons comment on how good my sculptra and botox was done, by how natural it looked and how long it lasted, so thank you “Patsy”, for taking such good care of me, that later in life if u ever decide to take time away, i will never know how to answer a doctor when they say what do u want done? I will say, “face time patsy right now”, to ask what I want, lol However, it’s not just myself that’s been so fortunate in being treated by them, my 3 boys and husband have been there as well. My husband had a mole removed and botox for migraines, my middle son throughout puberty had hydrafacials that kept his skin clear, as well as botox for TMJ during his track seasons, then my 14 yr old just started for his hydrafacials and microdermabrasion to keep his skin cleared from those hormonal breakouts that he suffered from so very much until his treatments. Thank you all for loving my family as I do and always the one doctors I look forward in seeing! Lisa Kemp

It was my first time doing professional teeth whitening and Brittany Heu was amazing. I was worried about pain since I have sensitive teeth and have only been able to use crest white strips for sensitive teeth in the past. Brittany was very helpful in talking me through everything and offered to only do a half session and see how my teeth feel. I was very surprised the next day when my teeth didn’t hurt at all. I finished up my teeth whitening procedure 3 months later and I’m very happy with the results. I took 1 advil before treatment and my teeth feel fine so far. I also like the toothpaste and at home whitening kit. I have very sensitive teeth and I’m so relieved this treatment went great!

Dr. Monica has assembled an amazing team. Stephanie is wonderful! Appointments are always on schedule, never feel rushed and she always provides ample time for consultation and numbing (if requested) prior to treatment in order to ensure a stress & pain free experience. Online booking makes it easy to schedule - I've always been able to get appointments with very short notice. Mahalo!

Dr. Monica and her staff are so warm and welcoming, and they take such great care of you the second you walk in the door. They are a busy practice but Dr. Monica and her staff take the time to get to know you and understand your needs and goals. After years of struggling with skin issues including acne, I am finally under the care of a compassionate dermatologist and my skin has never looked better.

Terrific, as always. Every time I leave their office, I feel confident and well cared for. I’ve always found the worst part of any visit to a doctor is the fact that some practitioners often don’t listen to their patients or take the time to explain and discuss the treatment plan. This has never been the case at Dr. Scheel’s office. They spend time talking with you and they actually listen to your concerns, paying close consideration to a variety of different factors to work with you and decide a treatment plan that best suits the individual! They are caring and compassionate while maintaining a reassuring professionalism. These women know their stuff and I will continue to trust them with my care. From the front desk to the medical assistant to the PAs and RNs, you’re always in good hands at Dr. Monica Scheel’s!

I had the best experience with Nala and Brittany. They both made me feel very comfortable throughout my whole appointment and answered all my questions about my skin concerns. They made great recommendations for at home skin care and different treatments available. I will definitely be booking again!

I HATE going to the dermatologist, but it's been a fact of my life for so many years. I've been to many dermatologists over the years...some good, some not so good. I'm new to the island and everyone recommended Monica Scheel. I had to wait a year for my initial appointment, but it was well worth it. Dr. Scheel's office is the best...caring, gentle staff; a beautiful atmosphere; and great care. If I have to have it done, I wouldn't go anywhere but here!

2023-05-25

Katy Grainger

I have always had great outcomes at Dr. Scheel’s offices with Patsy and several other technicians. I’ve had skin scans for cancer, fillers, laser treatments, facials and relaxers. All have been subtle changes that make me feel refreshed. They always listen to my needs. My skin glows and looks much younger than my actual age. So grateful they are here on-island!

Stephanie and support staff were all incredibly welcoming, educational and comforting throughout the entire process. From consultation to the execution of the procedure to the aftercare instructions, they were professional and accommodating of all my questions and concerns.

Wonderful experience from when I first walked in the door until I exited. Receptionist staff was very pleasant and quick to acknowledge me. The assistant to PA patsy was very thorough in explaining the procedure (Botox). PA patsy also gave really sound suggestions and advice as to what procedures would be most advantageous to my wants. She listened to what I had to say. I felt very calm and relaxed and I’m looking forward to my future visits. Even the final step of paying and scheduling was very pleasant. Some businesses could really learn from the staff here. Dr Scheel should be really proud of her employees. Recommend them highly.

She assessed my skin needs and my concerns, and gave me some very exciting options. Sold! I love that she gave me a detailed description of laser modalities, and helped me understand what would help my skin get the best results. I opted for PICO, as suggested. Very, very happy that Stephanie made time for me, with education, risks/benefits, questions, and some clinical and professional chit chat! The treatment itself was a breeze. Thank you to the front desk and the back desk ladies too!! You are all lovely and awesome 🙂

I have pretty sensitive teeth, so I was a bit nervous to get the whitening. Britney was great, she put me at ease, asked lots of questions and went over everything thoroughly. The room was spacious, clean, and bright and I was comfortable during the procedure, which lasted about an hour and a half. The best part, of course, is I feel so much better with whiter teeth!

Veronica Fruehauf

I met with Stephanie for a consultation about the best procedure to lighten some beginning facial dark spots and decrease some wrinkles.

Joyce is awesome! She scheduled my appt after talking with me about what I wanted and what I didn’t want. I was a bit nervous not really understanding what all the different services are. She said, “You will Love this,” and set up my appt. Nala performed a dermaplane with a diamond glow facial on me. She was amazing! Explained what she was doing and why it was good for my skin and pores. I really appreciate the education/knowledge behind the service. My face felt so good! So clean and hydrated! Would TOTALLY recommend this place, and look forward to other services in the future!! Thanks ladies for my wonderful experience!!

The length of each session depends on the size and location of the tattoo, but generally, treatments can take anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour.

How painful is PicoSure tattoo removal?

PicoSure tattoo removal has been compared to the feeling of getting a tattoo, but everyone’s pain tolerance is different. We offer several options for pain management during the procedure, including a topical numbing cream and lidocaine injections.

What are the risks or side effects of PicoSure tattoo removal?

Common side effects include a sunburn-like sensation, redness, and swelling in the treated area. These are temporary and typically subside within a week. More serious but less common side effects include infection and scarring. We’ll provide a comprehensive list of potential side effects and how to prevent them during your consultation.

Can PicoSure completely remove my tattoo?

While PicoSure is one of the most effective tattoo removal systems available, the results can vary from person to person. Factors like the type and color of the ink, depth of the ink in your skin, and your body’s ability to eliminate the ink particles can all affect how completely the tattoo can be removed.

Will I see results after one session?

You’ll likely see some lightening after one session, but multiple sessions are typically needed to achieve optimal results. This is because each session targets a layer of the tattoo’s ink, and tattoos usually have multiple layers of ink.

How long should I wait between PicoSure treatments?

Treatments are typically spaced 6-8 weeks apart. This gives your body enough time to eliminate the broken-down ink particles and heal before the next treatment.

How should I care for the treated area after a PicoSure session?

After your PicoSure treatment, it’s important to keep the area clean and moisturized with an approved ointment. Avoid picking at any scabs or blisters that form, as this can lead to scarring. Also, protect the area from sun exposure to prevent pigment changes in your skin.

Are there any specific activities or substances I should avoid after a PicoSure session?

You should avoid swimming in the ocean or a pool until the treated area is fully healed to prevent infection. Avoid direct sun exposure, and if you do go out in the sun, use a strong sunscreen on the treated area. Also, avoid applying makeup or other cosmetic products to the treated area until it is fully healed.

Is PicoSure tattoo removal safe for all skin types?

PicoSure is safe for most skin types, but during your consultation, we will assess your skin type and medical history to ensure PicoSure is the right treatment for you.

What happens if I miss a treatment session?

If you miss a treatment session, it’s best to reschedule as soon as possible. Delaying treatments can slow the overall progress of the tattoo removal.

Does PicoSure tattoo removal leave scars?

While PicoSure tattoo removal is designed to minimize the risk of scarring, some people may still experience scarring, especially if they have a history of keloid or hypertrophic scarring. Following our post-treatment care instructions can help reduce the risk of scarring.

PicoSure vs Other Tattoo Removal Methods

When it comes to tattoo removal, it’s important to understand that not all methods are created equal. While traditional tattoo removal techniques have been around for some time, PicoSure represents a significant advancement in the field.

PicoSure

PicoSure is the world’s first picosecond laser for tattoo removal. Using PressureWave technology, PicoSure delivers ultra-short pulses of energy to the skin, effectively shattering tattoo ink into minuscule particles that are then eliminated by the body.

Advantages of PicoSure:

  • Efficiency: PicoSure can often remove tattoos in fewer sessions than other methods due to its unique technology.
  • Range of Colors: PicoSure effectively removes a broad range of tattoo ink colors, including blues and greens which are typically harder to remove.
  • Less Discomfort: PicoSure relies on pressure changes rather than heat, potentially causing less discomfort during treatment.
  • Reduced Risk of Scarring: PicoSure’s non-thermal technology lowers the risk of scarring and skin damage compared to traditional laser tattoo removal methods.

Traditional Laser Tattoo Removal

Traditional laser tattoo removal uses Q-switched lasers that emit heat into the skin to break down tattoo ink.

Disadvantages of Traditional Laser Tattoo Removal:

  • More Treatments Required: Traditional laser removal generally requires more sessions compared to PicoSure.
  • Difficulty Removing Certain Colors: Traditional lasers may have difficulty removing certain tattoo colors, such as blues and greens.
  • Potential for More Discomfort: Traditional lasers rely on heat, which can cause more discomfort during treatment.
  • Higher Risk of Scarring: The heat generated by traditional lasers can increase the risk of scarring and skin damage.

Alternative Methods

Alternative methods such as dermabrasion, salabrasion, and tattoo removal creams are also available but are generally less effective and can carry more risk. Dermabrasion involves sanding down the skin, which can be painful and carries a high risk of scarring. Salabrasion, which uses salt to rub away layers of skin, also carries a high risk of scarring and infection. Tattoo removal creams claim to fade tattoos over time, but the results are often minimal and the chemicals used can cause skin irritation. In comparison, PicoSure is a safer and more effective solution for tattoo removal. Its innovative technology targets the tattoo ink directly, resulting in efficient and comprehensive removal with reduced risk of side effects.

We look forward to helping you achieve your tattoo removal goals with PicoSure.
