Laser Hair Removal in France: What the New Regulation Says (And Where to Go in Paris 16)
- Feb 19
- 2 min read
Since 2024, regulations surrounding laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) hair removal in France have significantly evolved. From now on, only properly trained and certified professionals are allowed to perform these aesthetic treatments.
This reform aims to strengthen client safety and ensure long-lasting, risk-free results.
⚖️ New Law: Mandatory Training
Decree No. 2024-470 of May 24, 2024 specifies that laser and IPL hair removal can be performed not only by medical doctors but also by qualified estheticians — provided they have completed officially recognized training in France.
This training includes modules covering:
laser technology and parameter settings
skin and eye safety
prevention of burns and pigmentation issues
hygiene and risk management
In other words, anyone offering laser hair removal must be able to present a French training certificate compliant with current legislation.
💡 Why This Regulation Matters
Although laser hair removal is non-invasive, it remains technically complex. Incorrect settings or poor technique can lead to:
burns
hyperpigmentation
paradoxical hair growth
The French government has therefore clarified the distinction between aesthetic procedures and medical acts, while also highlighting the importance of properly trained professionals who work transparently and responsibly.
