Super Hair Reduction
SHR stands for Super Hair Reduction and is the latest breakthrough innovation in IPL permanent reduction. When compared to traditional IPL reduction treatments, SHR is faster, easier and best of all – pain free.
With SHR, you can experience comfortable hair removal treatments in less than half the time of a traditional IPL session. The gradual heating method of the IPL SHR light delivery to the targeted hair follicle also means that treatments are comfortable and pain free.
The rapid treatment times and superior comfort factor both make SHR a leading choice when seeking permanent and hassle –free hair reduction solutions. In addition, SHR offers a great way to save on the ongoing cost and time spent on waxing, shaving and depilatory creams.
SHR excels in rapid and painless hair reduction from larger areas. Our LUX series SHR device also come with standard IPL to remove hair from more difficult to access treatment areas (such as the upper lip, chin or toes).
