What Is SHR Hair Removal?

SHR – Super Hair Removal is light pulsed hair removal, a new and advanced, long-term hair removal method. A client sits or lies in a comfortable position, and then a technician glides a wand-like tool, or handpiece, over his or her skin. The handpiece emits a beam of specially filtered light, which is absorbed by the hair and converted to heat. This heat disintegrates the hair and disables the hair follicle.

SHR Technology

The new system combines laser technology and the benefits of pulsating light to remove hair at a faster more effective rate and less pain to the client. Even difficult hairs can be treated through In Motion technology for operator speed, patient comfort and better protection.In motion technology is a new type of systems with a mu

ch faster speed in procedure, patient comfort and repeatable clinical results. Why? It provides a slow gradual thermal rise to the target therapeutic temperature without risk of injury. It eliminates the common problem of missed or skipped areas with comprehensive coverage to legs, arms and backs. Normal IPL with Multipulse modes focuses energy on one pulse, so it is easy to burn the client, however SHR emits a single pulse mode for safer treatments and emits energy more evenly.

Is the Treatment Safe?

Yes, it is very safe. Some people may experience mild reddening of the treatment area for a day or so after treatment, but other complications are rare. The SHR system delivers energy to the skin very gently. Plus the hand piece emits cold onto the skin during each pulse of light for maximum protection.

How long does it take?

Treatments are extremely fast, over twice as fast as waxing. A pair of legs or a man’s back can be treated in less than ten to twenty minutes. Smaller areas, such as the face or back of the neck, can be done in less than five minutes.

Does it hurt?

No. The light is selectively absorbed by the hair and hair follicles. The skin itself is exposed to little heat. Plus, no irritating chemicals are used, and the hairs aren’t pulled on in any way.

Does it remove Hair Permanently

Hair may never return at all. The hair needs to be treated monthly for maxiumum benifit and try not to miss a session as you have hairs that will be dormant and then begin to grow. They are not hairs that have previously been treated. They are new hairs. The settings are selected by the technician depending on individual hair and skin factors. Depending on the settings used by the technician in accordance with the clients background, hair removal can be permanent if treatments are followed correctly. Hair may grow in the future if the person is on medication or hormones that stimulate new hair growth.

What body areas can be treated?

Almost any area of the body can be treated: the legs, back, upper lip, chin, underarms, back of the neck, bikini line, etc.

Do I have to let my hair grow out to a certain length before I can get treated?

Not at all! With SHR treatments there’s no need to let hair grow out before you remove it. Light penetrates beneath the skin to reach the hair follicles. If you wish, you can get treated at regular intervals so that you skin remains virtually hair free all the time.
