SHR epilation is a revolutionary technology for removing unwanted hair

Unwanted hair removal – one of the most requested procedures in any beauty salon, which is used by both women and men. Photoepilation takes pride of place in the list of the most effective hair removal methods, but this concept includes various technologies, which are characterized by their own advantages and disadvantages. Today estet-portal.com will talk about the revolutionary technology of SHR hair removal, how it differs from IPL, E-Light, as well as the benefits of this hair removal method for both patients and cosmetologists.

IPL and E-Light photoepilation technologies: main disadvantages

Photoepilation – not such a simple procedure as it seems at first glance. The result of applying this method of hair removal largely depends on the qualifications of the specialist and the right choice of equipment.

The well-known IPL photoepilation technology works as follows: short pulses of light (about 2-300 ms) of high energy (12-120 J per cm²) affect the skin. Energy through the pigment melanin is transferred to the hair root, which is heated up to 65-72^о Celsius. Energy when using IPL is transferred to the hair follicle solely with the help of melanin. However, skin and red blood cells have an absorption coefficient close to that of melanin. As a result, they also absorb high levels of energy – and patients often complain of redness and swelling of the skin, which do not go away for several days, and sometimes – and burns.

SHR hair removal technology – revolutionary development to remove unwanted hair.

Furthermore, using the melanin-only energy pathway makes it effective to remove only dark hairs, while lighter hairs often remain unaffected and burns can occur on darker skin.

E-light technology combines the effects of visible light and radio waves, resulting in lower light energy levels and a safer, more effective procedure.

But even the high efficiency of IPL and E-light technologies does not justify the risk of burns or pigmentation problems that patients are exposed to. And a cosmetologist, in order to perform such procedures, must not only undergo training, but also gain relevant experience.

Taking into account the urgency of the above problems, experts have developed a new hair removal technology – SHR:

• principle of action;
• benefits;
• results.

The revolutionary SHR hair removal technology: how it works

The main difference between SHR and IPL hair removal is only partial use of the melanin pathway (50%) for energy transfer. The remaining 50% of the energy is absorbed by the stem cells responsible for hair growth through the skin.

This technology is not based on the principle of selective photothermolysis and exposure to single pulses, but on the progressive heating of the skin to a temperature necessary to destroy the hair follicle and block hair growth without violating the integrity of nearby tissues. The SHR epilation procedure uses the so-called in-Motion ("in motion") method, since the nozzle is passed over the treated area in sliding movements.

With SHR (Super Hair Removal) technology, the skin is gently heated with 808nm light using low energy (48 degrees) but high frequency (10Hz). Thanks to this, even lighter and thinner hairs are removed much more efficiently.

The main benefits of SHR hair removal for the patient and the beautician

Features of the SHR hair removal method determine the main advantages of this technology for patients:

• no overheating of the skin;
• pain minimization;
• no risk of burns;
• Effective removal of even light and fine hair;
• high speed of the procedure (10x15 cm zone is processed in just 80 seconds);
• It takes about 6 treatments (4-8) to completely remove unwanted hair;
• the ability to remove hair on any part of the body;
• slight redness of the skin after the procedure disappears within a few hours.

The versatility of SHR technology lies in the fact that it can be used not only for hair removal, but also for solving other aesthetic problems.

Benefits of SHR technology for cosmetologists:

• possibility of precise control of light exposure;
• ease of use;
• possibility of processing areas on the face and body;
• minimum consumables;
• quick payback;
• versatility.

The versatility of SHR technology lies in the fact that it can be used not only for hair removal, but also for solving other aesthetic problems:

• signs of skin aging;
• acne;
• pigment disorders;
• spider veins.
