How laser hair removal works

The laser’s light targets the colour (melanin) in the hair and turns into heat. This heat damages the hair follicle, which slows down hair growth.

Hair grows in three phases: growing (anagen), resting and shedding. The laser works best on hairs in the growing phase, so several sessions are needed to treat every hair at the right time, followed by occasional maintenance.

Our laser: Alma Soprano ICE

Alma Soprano laser hair removal system at DermaZone in Oakville

We use the Alma Soprano ICE by Alma Lasers, a diode laser with SHR technology.

Instead of a few strong pulses, SHR delivers many low-energy pulses at a high repetition rate while the applicator glides over the skin (the In-Motion technique). Heat builds up gradually in the hair follicle, so the treatment is more comfortable for most clients. Its ICE cooling keeps the surface of the skin cool during the session.

According to Alma Lasers, the Soprano ICE is FDA cleared for all skin types (I–VI), including tanned skin.

Who it’s for

Laser hair removal can treat hair anywhere on the body and works on all skin types. Many clients choose it to stop regular shaving or waxing.

It can also help with excessive hair growth, such as hirsutism (hair on the upper lip, chin, jawline or lower stomach) or hypertrichosis (more hair than usual).

Results are best on light skin with dark hair. Darker skin or lighter hair may need more sessions.

What to expect

Step 1

Free consultation

We look at your skin and hair, answer your questions and plan your sessions.

Step 2

Your session

Quick and convenient: about 10–15 seconds for the upper lip, around 5 minutes for the underarms and about 30 minutes for full arms.

Step 3

Results

You may see the first signs in 1–2 weeks. Treated hairs fall out within about two weeks. The full effect shows after your last session.

Preparation and aftercare

Before your session

  • Avoid direct sunlight for at least two weeks.
  • Do not tweeze, wax or have electrolysis for one month.
  • Shave the treatment area the day before or on the day.

After your session

  • Some redness or small bumps are normal and usually settle within a day.
  • You may notice a few ingrown hairs over the next days.
  • Avoid tanning for two weeks and always wear sunscreen in direct sun.

Risks and safety

Laser hair removal is widely used and trusted, but like any cosmetic laser treatment it has possible side effects. We reduce them by choosing the right settings for your skin and hair.

  • Skin sensitivity: redness or irritation that usually fades within a few hours.
  • Burns: a small risk, reduced with the right laser settings and technique.
  • Pigment changes: more likely on darker skin, usually temporary.
  • Scarring: a minimal risk, as with any cosmetic laser procedure.

Results vary from person to person. Your treatment plan is confirmed at your consultation.

Today was my second Hydra Dermabrasion Facial by Dominika. My complexion still looks luminous and feels incredibly soft several hours after my facial. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for real results. Thank you.

I’ve been seeing Dominika for acne facials for about 5 sessions now, and the difference in my skin is honestly amazing. My acne has cleared up so much, my breakouts are more under control, and my skin looks so much better than when I first came in. She really understands acne, acne healing, and acne recovery, and every facial feels personalized to exactly what my skin needs at the time. Dominika is not only incredibly skilled, but also so kind, patient, and honest. She genuinely works from the heart and truly cares about her clients. She never pushes treatments or products just to make money — if something isn’t right for your skin, she’ll tell you straight up. That honesty is so refreshing and makes such a big difference, especially when you’re already stressed about your skin. Because of her, I feel so much more confident in my natural skin, and I finally feel like I’m on the right path with my skin healing journey. I would definitely recommend Dominika to anyone struggling with acne, scars, breakouts, or acne recovery. She does an absolutely amazing job, and I’ll definitely continue going to her as I keep working on my skin.

Have you ever paid for a facial treatment and left feeling like you received nothing? Then Dermazone should be your next visit. My experience with many clinics doing facials, microneedling, IPL, and other facial treatments over the past 30 years has given me a good understanding of what works. Finding Dermazone has been such a positive experience. Dominica is amazing, extremely knowledgeable, her methods and machines are highly effective. The results speak for themselves. Her pricing is well below average, especially considering the level of expertise and care you receive. It is refreshing to have a place that truly delivers real results. I highly recommend Dominica at Dermazone to anyone looking for honest, effective treatments and someone who genuinely knows skin.

Highly recommend Dominika and DermaZone. She is incredibly honest about the results she can deliver (never over promises) and is never pushy - always lets the client decide. I’ve been thrilled with my results so far. Also really love the atmosphere of the spa - really clean and beautifully done. Tons of parking. Love it there.

I’ve been visiting DermaZone Medical Spa for almost 3 months now, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! My skin has transformed significantly, thanks to Dominika’s expert care and the personalized treatment plan she created for me. The combination of dermabrasion, microneedling, and hydra therapy treatments has worked wonders. You can see a clear difference in the photo I’ve shared—just after a couple of sessions! Dominika uses medical-grade equipment and products, and you can really tell the difference in quality. The products she recommends are well worth the investment. She’s incredibly knowledgeable and always takes the time to explain each step of the process, making me feel comfortable and informed throughout. What I appreciate most is that she’s never pushy—she focuses on realistic goals and genuinely wants what’s best for your skin. She’s also flexible with appointments, which is a big plus for someone with a busy schedule like mine. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for real, lasting skin improvements! 🌟

Frequently asked questions

How many sessions will I need?

Most clients see lasting results after 6–12 sessions. Many see an 80–95% reduction in hair. Results vary from person to person. The exact number depends on your hair type, with maintenance sessions about once a year.

Is laser hair removal permanent?

It gives a large, long-lasting reduction in hair. When the follicle is destroyed, the hair does not grow back; when it is only damaged, some hair can regrow, which is why maintenance sessions may be needed.

Does skin or hair colour make a difference?

Our Alma Soprano ICE is cleared for all skin types (I–VI), including tanned skin. It works best on dark hair; lighter hair may need more sessions.

How long does a session take?

It depends on the area: about 10–15 seconds for the upper lip, around 5 minutes for the underarms and about 30 minutes for full arms.

Is there any downtime?

No. You can leave right after your session. Some redness or bumps may appear and usually settle within a day.
