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.

What to expect during your session

Step 1
Shaving the treatment area
Ensuring that the skin is smooth before treatment begins takes just a few seconds. Your technician will use a razor to make sure that no hair interferes with the treatment area; this action also stimulates the pigment of the hair and helps avoid the risk of micro burns.
Step 2
Marking the treatment area
Outlining the treatment area with a white cosmetic pencil serves as a guide for your technician. It helps ensure the entire surface is treated without going over the same area twice.
Step 3
Applying a protective gel
At the start of each session, an aqueous protective gel is applied on the entire surface of the treatment area, helping the applicator slide smoothly and protecting the skin from burns. In addition, the gel increases comfort during the session by offering a refreshing contrast to the heat delivered by the applicator.
Step 4
Proper eye protection
Protective eyewear helps protect eyes from light rays. While it is perfectly normal to perceive several flashes of light during the session, your eye protection ensures complete safety at all times.
Step 5
Setting device parameters
Adjusting the parameters of the device is part of the treatment process. Since every person is unique, your technician will consider several factors when assessing your individual needs; including the treatment area, your phototype (skin colour) and the texture and colour of your hair. This is why a test is done a few days before your first complete session. The technician will ask for your hair to be visible then test a few pulses to ensure the best settings for your treatment.
Step 6
Starting the treatment
Treatment begins as soon as the applicator touches the skin and delivers its energy to the treatment area. This process is repeated by gently and gradually sliding the tip over the entire area until it has been completely covered. With pulsed light, the treatment is practically painless; a sensation of diffused heat is felt, that on occasion can cause some patients to flinch slightly. With laser, the same heating effect is felt and the sensation of pinching is intensified. In both cases, temporary swelling around the hair follicles may appear immediately after treatment; this indicates a good response to the treatment.
Step 7
Cleaning and post-treatment specialty products
When your session is over, the gel is removed and your skin is cleansed. To help calm the “warming” sensation felt after treatment and to help protect your skin, a hydrating cream is applied carefully to the entire treatment area, followed by a mineral sunscreen.

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.
