At Dermapure, laser hair removal is performed with a latest‑generation diode laser. The device produces a concentrated beam of light that is absorbed by the melanin, the pigment that gives hair its colour. The light is then converted into heat that targets the follicle during its active growth phase, helping to reduce the hair's ability to grow back while sparing the surrounding skin. Because hair grows in cycles and only follicles in the active phase respond, several sessions are usually needed to achieve a meaningful reduction.
The hand piece includes an integrated cooling system that helps make the treatment more comfortable. Laser hair removal works best on darker hair, since the laser relies on melanin to reach the follicle. Hair that is blonde, red, grey or white contains little melanin and tends to respond poorly. Your specialist will assess your skin, your phototype and your hair during your consultation to determine whether laser hair removal is the most appropriate option for you.
IPL Hair Removal
Depending on the clinic, hair removal can also be performed with intense pulsed light (IPL), a light‑based technology that can be adapted to a range of treatment goals. Your specialist will help determine which approach is best suited to your skin and hair.

Treatment & Technology
At Dermapure Longueuil-sur-le-Parc, the Laser Hair Removal treatment is offered to support a progressive reduction in hair growth using safe, light-based technologies. This approach targets the hair at its root during the growth phase and gradually reduces regrowth over time, while preserving the surrounding skin.

Side Effects & Contraindications
As with any light‑based treatment, some temporary reactions are possible. The most common are redness, mild swelling and a warm sensation in the treated area, which usually settle within a few hours to a couple of days. Less frequently, temporary changes in skin pigmentation (lighter or darker areas) can occur, particularly on deeper skin tones, along with small blisters, crusting or, rarely, a superficial burn. Contact your specialist if you notice persistent pain, blistering, signs of infection or any reaction that concerns you.
A few precautions also help keep the treatment appropriate and effective. Laser hair removal should be postponed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and avoided in case of recent sun exposure in the month before or after each session. Tanning booths, self‑tanning products, photosensitizing medication, waxing and tweezing are not compatible with treatment. Because the laser relies on melanin to reach the follicle, blonde, red, grey or white hair tends not to respond well. Your specialist will review the full list of risks and the precautions and contraindications that apply to your situation during your consultation.
