If you are in the Greater Toronto Area or surrounding neighborhoods or cities and are looking for the best in laser tattoo removal—look no further than Unthink Inc.

Founded in 2017 by Jim Trenholm, Unthink Inc. strives to be the easiest, straight forward, and logical answer to your tattoo removal needs. If you are an avid reader of our blogs or follow us on social media, you may know about the revolutionary technology that we use here at Unthink Inc.

It is called the PicoWay laser, by laser technology leaders, Syneron Candela. In addition to this technology, the man behind the laser, Jim Trenholm, is highly educated and experienced both in the medical field and the use of lasers for tattoo removal. Now, if you don’t know or haven’t heard…we are here to share why Unthink Inc, is quickly becoming the leading clinic in the Greater Toronto area for laser tattoo removal, and why you should see Jim when considering removing an unwanted tattoo.

But first, what exactly is the PicoWay Laser?

Unlike traditional laser tattoo removal lasers, PicoWay removes your unwanted ink in fewer treatments with less discomfort. This, in turn, provides better results with minimized risk to the patient. The PicoWay laser delivers energy to the targeted area in very short, fast pulses, about 300-500 picoseconds at a time.

Let’s put that into perspective…

One picosecond is one-trillionth of a second. These pulses shatter the targeted ink into pieces so tiny, the body can then eliminate them through its natural processes – specifically through the lymphatic system which is connected to our immune system.

With both fractional and non-fractional capabilities, the PicoWay laser now has three wavelengths for optimal results: 532nm, 785nm and 1064nm. In the past, lasers were only able to deliver pulses measured in nanoseconds or one billionth of a second but because of PicoWay’s advanced picosecond technology and varied wavelengths, our clients get better results, faster and with less downtime.

PicoWay does not use any heat, which is great for those with various skin tones, types, and even skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis.

So What Makes Unthink Inc. So Unique?

When choosing Unthink Inc. you are choosing a highly professional and fully certified laser operator and Registered Nurse of over 29 years. The PicoWay laser and tattoo removal is Unthink’s main priority.

At our clinic, we ensure that we provide our customers with straight forward pricing, which in turn do not confuse or discourage our clients.

Jim Trenholm: The Man Behind The Laser & Why Clients Want to Work With Him

Jim Trenholm, Owner, and operator of Unthink Inc. has been a registered nurse for 29 years and has experience working with patients of all ages and backgrounds.

That in itself is a unique feature and makes clients extremely comfortable to have someone working on their skin and has an astute medical and patient background.

He brings 29 years of emergency and clinical nursing experience. He has specialized in Emergency Nursing in Southern Ontario, practicing in such renown hospitals as Toronto East General, Wellesley Hospital and St. Joseph’s Health Center. Jim has also worked as a Hospital Intake Coordinator for Metro CCAC and most recently, Toronto’s Hospital for Sick Children.

Jim has also specialized in returning pediatric patients to their own homes. He then returned to Emergency Nursing, finishing his hospital practice at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center in the ER and Trauma Unit. It was then, Jim was recruited to private practice and worked as an anesthesia tech for a decade. This then led to an interest in laser technology and working to help people remove things they no longer want in their life.

Enter laser tattoo removal.

How did Jim find an interest in laser tattoo removal?

While working as an anesthetic nurse, Jim was convinced by his superiors to find something for himself. Jim contemplated many different avenues including opening a nursing agency and selling medical equipment, but none of them seemed to click for him.

Although Jim has no tattoos himself, he has always been fascinated with tattoos. One day while watching a television show about tattoo disasters, one of the tattoo artists was telling the customer that they should consider fading their tattoo with laser tattoo removal before going through with a cover-up job. At that point, a light bulb went off for Jim, and he finally found his calling.

Jim did his due diligence and researched thoroughly before purchasing a laser, and after months and months of weighing out his options, he decided to go with PicoWay, which is undoubtedly the best and most effective laser tattoo removal device on the market.

Eyebrow Tattoos: When to Consider Laser Removal

June 18, 2025

Eyebrow tattoos have become an increasingly popular beauty trend, offering a semi-permanent solution for those seeking perfectly shaped and defined brows. However, not everyone ends up satisfied with their results. Whether it's due to a change in aesthetic preferences, an allergic reaction, or less-than-desirable outcomes, you might find yourself considering removal. At Unthink Inc. , we specialize in helping clients achieve the look they want through effective removal methods. Here’s a comprehensive guide on when to consider eyebrow tattoo removal with a combination of saline injections and laser treatment. Understanding Eyebrow Tattoos and Their Risks Before diving into when to consider removal, it's crucial to understand what eyebrow tattoos entail. Typically, these tattoos are a form of cosmetic tattooing, where pigment is implanted into the skin to create the appearance of fuller, darker eyebrows. While many are thrilled with the results, there are potential risks involved. The process can cause skin damage, infections, or allergic reactions, which in turn may lead you to reconsider your decision. Symptoms Indicating Removal Might Be Necessary 1. Faded or Uneven Pigment: Over time, the pigment used in eyebrow tattoos can fade or turn into an undesirable color, especially with exposure to sunlight. If your eyebrow tattoos have started to look uneven or have changed color, it might be an indication that removal is your best option for a fresh start. 2. Allergic Reactions: Unfortunately, not everyone’s skin reacts well to tattoo pigments. Allergic reactions can result in redness, itching, or swelling. If you experience these symptoms, removal could alleviate discomfort and help restore your skin to its natural state. 3. Discomfort or Scarring: The tattooing process can sometimes damage your skin, causing discomfort or scarring. If your eyebrow tattoos have left visible scars or if you have ongoing discomfort, removal can potentially improve the appearance of your skin, reducing both visible and physical distress. 4. Change in Aesthetic Preferences: Your style and preferences can evolve over time. What seemed like a perfect choice five years ago might no longer align with your current taste or beauty goals. If your eyebrow tattoos don't fit your desired look anymore, removal offers a safe and effective way to reclaim your natural brows. The Dual Approach: Saline Injections and Laser Tattoo Removal For those considering removal, Unthink Inc. offers a unique approach combining saline injections and the PicoWay laser treatment. This dual method is designed to deliver optimal results tailored to individual client needs. 1. Saline Injections for Lighter Pigments: In some cases, saline injections may be recommended to lift lighter pigments before proceeding with laser treatment. This helps to create a more uniform appearance and prepares the brows for effective laser removal. Our specialists, will work closely with you to coordinate the saline process, ensuring a smoother transition to laser treatments. 2. PicoWay Laser for Final Touches: Once the lighter pigments are addressed, the PicoWay laser is employed to remove the remaining darker elements of the unwanted brows. Known for its precision and safety, this state-of-the-art technology targets the tattoo pigment with minimal impact on the surrounding skin. Preparing for Your Removal Session Before undergoing treatment, a consultation with a qualified specialist at Unthink Inc. is vital. We’ll assess your tattoos and discuss your goals and expectations. Here are some tips to prepare for your session: - Avoid sun exposure at least two weeks before your appointment to reduce skin sensitivity. - Refrain from using topical creams or medications that can make your skin more sensitive. - Communicate any skin conditions or concerns with your technician. Recovery and Aftercare Post-treatment care is essential for optimal results. After your session, you may experience some redness or swelling around the treated area. To ensure a smooth recovery, follow these aftercare tips: - Avoid sun exposure and apply sunscreen as advised. - Keep the treated area clean and moisturized. - Refrain from picking at any scabs or flaky skin. Removing Eyebrow Tattoos: A Step Toward Confidence Deciding to remove your eyebrow tattoos is a personal choice often motivated by the desire for self-confidence and comfort. At Unthink Inc., we're committed to supporting our clients through the removal process, providing professional care and guidance every step of the way.
