Frequently Asked Questions

What is SHR IPL, and how does it work?

SHR (Super Hair Reduction) IPL uses intense pulsed light to target hair follicles during their growth phase, effectively reducing hair growth over time. Multiple treatments are required to catch all hairs in this phase.

Is SHR IPL suitable for all skin types?

Yes, SHR IPL is designed to be safe and effective for a wide range of skin tones and hair types, but a consultation is necessary to determine the best approach for you.

Does SHR IPL hurt?

The sensation is often described as a mild flick or the feeling of a rubber band snap. As treatments progress, discomfort tends to decrease as hair growth diminishes.

What should I do to prepare for my SHR IPL treatment?

Shave the treatment area 24-48 hours before your appointment, and avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and certain skincare products like retinoids before your session.

What are the aftercare steps following SHR IPL?

After treatment, apply cool compresses to soothe the skin, avoid sun exposure, and refrain from using hot showers, saunas, or vigorous exercise for 24-48 hours. Moisturise the treated area with a gentle lotion.

Throw away that shaver and say goodbye to ingrown and unwanted hairs and jump off the waxing band wagon – IPL Hair Reduction is a fast and affordable safe and effective treatment that will allow you to keep that smooth skin feeling long term. Our qualified therapists can safely treat your unwanted hair, this treatment is the answer for long term hair reduction.

How it works…

An intense pulse light is passed down the shaft of the hair to kill it at the follicle. This explains why you need multiple treatments, the hair will only die while it is its growing phase. Initially we treat your area monthly to catch all of the hair in the growing phase and then we will advise on a maintenance plan to keep your skin silky smooth.

Does it hurt…

We advise that you shave the area at least two to three days before your treatment (this part should not hurt – but remember to use a sharp blade). Then as the hair is being treated it initially feels like a mosquito bite or being flicked by a small rubber band – as hair starts to die off and not grow back there is less and less of this. If this is really a discomfort we can power down our IPL machine to a lower setting.

What are the after effects…

Well no hair, silky smoothness – but you may get some slight redness and heat within the skin for the next day or two – apply cool compresses to the area and please do not go out and tan in the sun if this is the case.
