Treatment and Technology
DioLaze is a hair removal treatment that provides permanent reduction by targeting unwanted body hair at the root. Using advanced diode laser technology, DioLaze emits highly concentrated wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and destroy hair follicles with precision and efficiency. This state-of-the-art laser hair removal system is designed to safely and effectively treat a wide range of skin types and hair types, including lighter skin tones, darker skin tones, coarse hair, and finer hair.
The technology behind DioLaze is based on selective photothermolysis, which allows for the selective absorption of light energy by the pigment in the hair shaft and hair roots, while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. With each session, the hair matrix is progressively damaged, leading to a significant reduction in hair growth over time.
DioLaze also incorporates chiller-tip contact cooling, an advanced cooling mechanism that ensures maximum comfort during the procedure by protecting the skin’s surface and minimizing potential side effects such as redness or irritation. With its quick treatment times and minimal side effects, DioLaze offers an efficient and comfortable treatment for those looking to achieve smooth skin without the hassle of traditional methods like shaving or waxing.
For optimal results, most patients require a series of laser hair removal treatments spaced according to the phase of hair growth, as only hair in the anagen phase (active growth) is effectively targeted during each session.
What Makes Diolaze Different?
Diolaze is a Health Canada and FDA-approved diode laser known for its precision and safety in hair removal. By using a powerful laser to target hair follicles directly, Diolaze effectively halts hair growth while leaving the surrounding skin unharmed. Its high-powered technology combines with an advanced cooling mechanism, ensuring that each pulse of light is gentle on your skin, so you can enjoy comfortable treatments with minimal discomfort. Additionally, its large spot size means that larger areas—like the legs, chest, and back—can be treated more efficiently, reducing the time needed for each session.
How Does Diolaze Work?
Diolaze directs concentrated laser energy into the hair follicles beneath the skin. This energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair, which heats up and disables the follicle, preventing future hair growth. It’s a highly targeted process, with the energy impacting only the hair follicles, making it safe for most skin types.
Most patients see significant hair reduction within a few sessions, but to achieve long-lasting smoothness, a series of 6 to 8 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is recommended. This timing allows the laser to target hairs at different growth stages, providing more complete and lasting results.
Benefits of Diolaze Hair Removal
The advantages of Diolaze go beyond effective hair reduction. Here’s what makes it a popular choice:
- Quick Sessions: With a larger spot size, Diolaze covers more surface area in each pulse, making treatment times shorter and more convenient.
- Minimal Discomfort: A cooling system is integrated into the device, keeping the skin comfortable during treatment by counteracting the heat generated by the laser.
- Safety and Efficacy: Diolaze is a safe, FDA-approved solution that targets hair effectively while protecting the surrounding skin.
Areas That Can Be Treated with Diolaze
Diolaze is versatile, suitable for most parts of the body where unwanted hair grows. The most commonly treated areas include:
- Face: Chin, neck, and sideburns
- Upper Body: Shoulders, stomach, chest, and back
- Arms and Legs: Full arms, legs, and bikini area
Preparing for Your Diolaze Session
To get the best results from your Diolaze treatments, it’s essential to follow a few simple guidelines. Shaving the area 24 hours before the appointment is recommended, as the laser works most effectively on freshly shaved skin. Avoid waxing, tanning, or plucking hair for at least two months prior to treatment, as these methods interfere with the hair follicle’s growth cycle, which Diolaze™ specifically targets.
Treatment Process
Personalized Assessment
Before starting your diode laser hair removal, we will evaluate your skin type, skin tone, and hair type to create a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. By considering factors such as hair growth patterns, skin pigmentation, and treatment goals, we can ensure an effective therapy suited to your individual requirements.
Proceed with Treatment
During your DioLaze treatment, the device emits precise laser pulses that target the hair bulb and hair roots within the follicle. Each session typically lasts between 10 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Thanks to its advanced cooling features, the procedure is both safe and comfortable, with many patients describing only a mild warming sensation. DioLaze’s combination of a single wavelength and diode laser technology ensures effective destruction of hair follicles while minimizing discomfort and protecting the surrounding skin.
Return to Normal Activities
Following your session, there is little to no downtime. You may experience mild redness or sensitivity in the treated area, but these adverse effects are temporary and usually resolve within a day. To optimize results and support healing, we recommend avoiding direct sunlight, maintaining a consistent skin care regime, and using recommended post-treatment products.
Follow-Up and Maintenance
Achieving permanent hair removal with DioLaze requires multiple sessions because hair grows in cycles. Since the anagen phase is the only stage during which hair can be effectively targeted, treatments are typically spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Most patients achieve long-term hair growth reduction after 6–8 sessions, with occasional maintenance treatments to address any remaining or newly emerging dead hairs or ingrown hairs.
Contraindications
While DioLaze is safe and effective for most people, there are some cases where treatment may need to be avoided or postponed:
- Active skin infections, open wounds, or irritation in the treatment area.
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- A history of severe scarring, such as keloids, in the treatment area.
- Conditions that affect skin sensitivity, such as photosensitivity or certain medical conditions.

Is diode laser better than IPL?
Yes, diode laser technology is generally more effective than IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) for laser hair removal treatments. Diode lasers use a focused single wavelength of light energy, which allows for deeper penetration into the skin to target hair follicles more precisely. IPL, on the other hand, uses broad-spectrum light, which is less targeted and often less effective for permanent hair reduction, especially on certain hair types or skin tones.
How many sessions for diode laser hair removal?
Most patients require 6–8 sessions of diode laser hair removal to achieve optimal results. This is because hair grows in cycles, and the treatment is most effective during the anagen phase (active growth). The exact number of sessions may vary depending on factors like the treatment area, hair type, and individual response to the therapy.
Is There Any Side Effect to Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a safe and well-tolerated procedure with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or a warm sensation in the treated area, but these typically subside within a few hours to a day.
Is Laser Hair Removal Safe on the Face?
Yes, laser hair removal is safe on the face when performed by a qualified professional using the appropriate laser devices and settings. DioLaze is especially effective for treating areas like the upper lip, chin, and jawline while ensuring that sensitive skin is protected through its advanced cooling mechanism. It’s important to avoid direct sun exposure after treatment and follow all post-procedure care instructions for optimal results.
