Two of Montréal’s most respected leaders in aesthetic mecicine now practice under the Dermapure banner, leading the Outremont and Westmount clinics respectively. Both built strong reputations as founders of their own successful clinics before joining the network.
Dr. Jean-François Tremblay established one of Montréal’s premier esthetic clinics and now serves as President, Medical Operations for Dermapure, helping shape clinical standards across the country.
Dr. Roni Munk founded his clinic more than a decade ago and is recognized internationally as an MD Codes” trainer for Allergan.
As this edition celebrates all things Glamada, their combined expertise and dedication to artistry elevate beauty to an experience as much about confidence as it is about results. Between them: decades of expertise and a shared philosophy that defines Dermapure’s approach — the best compliment a patient can receive is simply, “You look amazing. What’s your secret?”
THERE’S A LOT OF NOISE AROUND INJECTABLES — THE FROZEN FACE, THE OVERDONE LOOK. WHAT DO YOU SAY TO SOMEONE WHO’S HESITANT?
Dr. Tremblay: What people fear is not the treatment, but poor treatment. The overdone look comes from outdated techniques and lack of individualized planning. Today, our philosophy is conservative and personalized. The best compliment isn’t “did you have something done?” It’s “you look well rested.”
Dr. Munk: Social media has created unrealistic expectations. My role is to redirect that conversation, away from looking like someone else and toward becoming the best version of yourself. Sometimes that means saying no. Trust is built through honesty.
WHAT’S ACTUALLY NEW IN AESTHETIC MEDICINE RIGHT NOW?
Dr. Tremblay: The shift toward regenerative and multimodal approaches. We’re combining technologies like energy-based devices, biostimulators, and advanced skincare to work with the skin’s biology rather than just correcting surface concerns.
Dr. Munk: Regenerative medicine is moving fast. Biostimulators and advanced laser combinations are delivering results that feel incredibly natural, often with minimal downtime. The tools we have today are genuinely exciting.
EVERYONE’S TALKING ABOUT LONGEVITY SKINCARE. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN CLINICALLY?
Dr. Tremblay: Shifting from reactive to proactive. Prevention, regeneration, maintenance. The goal is no longer transformation, it’s optimization. The best outcomes come from combining treatments over time, not from a single intervention.
Dr. Munk: It’s about maintaining skin quality rather than correcting damage after the fact. The conversation has shifted from anti-aging to healthy aging. Patients want to look refreshed and strong, not different.
WHAT’S THE ONE THING MOST PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND ABOUT SKIN AGING?
Dr. Tremblay: That it’s not just about wrinkles. It’s about changes in skin quality, bone structure. tat distribution. and collagen loss. Small well-timed treatments done consistently almost always age better than trying to correct everything later.
Dr. Munk: That prevention is medicine too. Starting early with the right skincare and treat-ments protects what you have, and that’s far more powerful than correction.
FIRST VISIT AT DERMAPURE – WHAT SHOULD SOMEONE EXPECT?
Dr. Tremblay: A conversation, not a commitment. Good esthetic medicine should help you look and feel like yourself, at your best.
Dr. Munk: They don’t need to come in with answers. Just curiosity. They’ll be met with honesty, professionalism, and a plan built at their own pace.
