SHR stands for “Super Hair Removal”, an advanced hair removal technology that is an evolution of the traditional one IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) methods. SHR combines laser technology with the benefits of pulsating light methods to provide painless treatments. Unlike traditional hair removal methods that rely primarily on the absorption of light energy through the Melanin Based in the hair, SHR also uses the heat conducted through the skin to Hair follicles to specifically deactivate it during the growth phase.
SHR uses low fluence (energy levels) at high repetition rates, gently scattering multiple light pulses across the treatment area. Instead of a single, high-energy pulse that can cause discomfort and pain, SHR heats hair follicles gradually and gently, minimizing the risk of side effects. The technology typically works with a wavelength of 650 to 950 nm.
Compared to traditional IPL and laser hair removal methods, SHR offers a less painful and often more comfortable experience. The technique does not focus solely on melanin as a target, but rather utilizes general warming of the dermis to achieve effective hair reduction, thereby reducing the risk of skin burns.
SHR is primarily used for hair removal, but can also be used to treat acne, pigment disorders and for skin rejuvenation, similar to other light-based treatments.
In summary, SHR offers a modern and effective hair removal solution that is particularly suitable for people looking for a low-pain alternative to traditional laser and IPL methods.
