Super Hair Removal (SHR) The Permanent Solution to Unwanted Body Hair
What is Super Hair Removal (SHR)?
Super Hair Removal, or SHR, is the latest hair removal technology available. It uses pulsed light to target and destroy hair follicles. The light energy produced by the machine is then absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft, which heats up and damages the follicle, preventing future hair growth.
The Super Hair Removal treatment is often referred to as “permanent hair removal” because it can significantly reduce hair growth and is often permanent after a series of treatments.
How Does Super Hair Removal Work?
During the Super Hair Removal treatment, light is pulsed onto the skin. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft, which heats up and damages the follicle. This damage prevents future hair growth.
Super Hair Removal treatments are often done over several sessions (depending on each individual’s needs), spaced 6-8 weeks apart. After a series of the Super Hair Removal treatments, most people experience significant hair reduction.
What Are the Benefits of Super Hair Removal?
The Super Hair Removal treatment is a popular hair removal treatment because it is an effective treatment that offers long-lasting results in body hair reduction. Additionally, Super Hair Removal treatments are pain-free and are often quicker than other laser hair removal treatments.
The Super Hair Removal treatment is also safe for all skin types and can be used to remove hair from large areas of the body, such as the back, chest, and legs.
If you are looking for a non-invasive and pain-free hair removal treatment that is effective for permanent hair reduction, Super Hair Removal is just the thing for you.
Which Parts of the Body Is the Super Hair Removal Treatment Suitable For?
The Super Hair Removal treatment can be used on any area of the body where unwanted hair growth occurs. This includes the face, arms, legs, bikini area, and more. The Super Hair Removal treatment is especially effective in removing unwanted hair from large areas of the body, such as the back, chest, and legs.
Is Everyone Suited for the Super Hair Removal Treatment?
The Super Hair Removal treatment is suitable for all men and women of all skin types. However, If you have any pre-existing skin conditions, it is best to consult our professional staff prior to treatment.
How Does Your Body Hair Grow?
To understand how SHR hair removal work, it is important to understand how body hair grows. The hair on your body grows from the hair follicles. Follicles are tiny holes in your skin that each hair shaft grows out of. The base of the hair shaft is called the root.
Your hair follicles are programmed to grow hair for a certain length of time and then rest for a certain length of time. This growing and resting cycle is what determines how long your hair is and how often it needs to be removed.
The hair growth cycle has three phases: the anagen phase, the catagen phase, and the telogen phase.
The anagen phase is the active growth phase of the hair follicle. This phase can last for several years. During this phase, the hair follicle grows new hair.
The catagen phase is a transitional phase. This phase lasts for about 2-3 weeks. During this phase, the hair follicle shrinks and the hair shaft starts to detach from the follicle.
The telogen phase is the resting phase of the hair follicle. This phase lasts for about 2-3 months. During this phase, the hair follicle does not grow new hair. After the telogen phase, the cycle starts over again with the anagen phase.
Treatment Process: Super Hair Removal
Step 1:
Pre-treatment consultation
During the pre-treatment consultation, a trained professional will assess your suitability for the Super Hair Removal treatment. This will include a discussion of your medical history and any medications you are taking. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the treatment.
If you are deemed suitable for the Super Hair Removal treatment, a treatment plan will be designed specifically for you. This will take into account the areas you wish to target, your skin type, and your hair type.
Step 2:
Skin Check
Prior to each treatment session, we will determine the energy & pulses of light suited for your use, based on your skin condition/hair quality/volume of hair around the treatment area.
Step 3:
Applying Specially Formulated Cooling Gel and Other Precautionary Measures
The SHR hair removal process begins with the application of a cooling gel to the treatment area. This gel helps protect your skin from the light and also helps the laser light penetrate into the hair follicles.
You will be given protective eyewear to wear during your treatment though the risk of eye injuries is greatly minimized with SHR technology. It specifically targets hair follicles, ensuring that the light energy does not affect unintended areas, such as your eyes. This provides an additional level of safety, protecting your eyes from any potential harm.
Step 4:
Treatment
The Super Hair Removal treatment process is relatively simple. The machine emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair shaft. This light energy is then converted into heat, which destroys the hair follicle.
During your treatment session, the laser will be passed over the treatment area multiple times. This ensures that all of the hair follicles are exposed to the light and destroyed.
You may experience zero to little tingling or prickling sensation during the treatment, but this is generally well tolerated.
Step 5:
Post-Treatment Aftercare
After the SHR hair removal treatment is complete, the gel will be removed from your skin. Your skin may feel warm and irritated after the treatment. This is normal and should subside within a few hours.
It is important to avoid sun exposure after laser hair removal treatments. This is because your skin will be more sensitive to the sun and you may be more likely to experience side effects such as burns, blisters, and pigmentation changes.
It is important to follow all aftercare instructions given to you by our clinic professionals. These instructions will help you heal quickly and reduce the risk of complications.
