Enjoy the confidence of smooth, hair-free skin with our expert services designed for all skin types.
Dermapure’s expert professionals collaborate with you to understand your beauty goals and determine the most suitable treatment plan. Together, we assess whether laser or pulsed light is the ideal approach for your permanent hair removal treatment. Our physicians, nurses and skin experts recognize the uniqueness of each patient and are committed to prioritizing your comfort, safety, and confidence throughout the process.
Please note that individual results may vary from patient to patient, and specific results cannot be guaranteed.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
We invite you to consult our price list in the clinic, during your initial consultation.
Once the sessions are completed, in some cases, a minimal annual maintenance is required before the summer season for a very few stubborn hairs that may have remained. Electrolysis for lighter hairs may be something to consider, as well.
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should postpone this type of treatment, as well as anyone who has been exposed to the sun the month before and after each session. The use of tanning booths, self-tanning products or photosensitizing medication is prohibited as are waxing and tweezing. It should be noted that people with blonde, red or white hair cannot obtain satisfactory results.
All areas of the body and face that have hair can be treated with our permanent hair removal technologies. The most common areas include underarms, groin, legs (half or full), arms and upper lip. For our male clients, popular treatment areas include the chest, back and beard. One or more areas can be treated during the same session. Depending on the technology used, 6 to 10 consecutive treatments may be necessary to completely eliminate hair. Sessions should be scheduled 6 to 8 weeks apart, depending on the treatment area. It should be noted that shaving is permitted between sessions and the skin must be shaved before each appointment.

Visit The Online StoreDermapure employs laser and pulsed light technologies for permanent hair reduction. Both methods target hair follicles by delivering intense light that transforms into heat, destroying the follicle and preventing regrowth. Pulsed light reaches varying depths under the skin, offering versatility for different treatments, while laser beams specifically target darker hair. Dermapure’s experts and advanced equipment ensure accuracy and safety.
Pulsed light works by emitting intense light energy that targets the melanin in hair follicles. This energy is absorbed and converted into heat, which causes follicle disruption and prevents regrowth. One advantage of pulsed light is its ability to reach varying depths under the epidermis. By using different filters, wavelengths of light can be adjusted to penetrate different layers of skin, allowing for customized treatments.
Laser hair removal utilizes a concentrated beam of light from a diode laser, which targets the melanin pigment in hair follicles. The melanin absorbs the light energy, converting it into heat. This heat damages the follicle, inhibiting future hair growth. The process selectively targets dark, coarse hair while leaving surrounding skin undamaged. Multiple sessions may be needed to target hair in different growth stages.
Factors to consider before proceeding with laser hair removal include: Skin and hair color Treatment area Medical history and medications The overall treatment plan, including the time commitment
Permanent hair removal technologies can treat various areas of the body and face. Common treatment areas for women include the bikini, legs, underarms, upper lip, and arms. For men, popular treatment areas include the back, beard, and chest.
