Difference Between IPL And SHR Technology

IPL Hair Removal Technology:

Using IPL technology the light emitted is absorbed and changed into heat by the hair pigment, melanin. This process only 

works when the hair is dark. Hair removal of fairer hair is not very successful with the IPL method.

Advantages of the SHR Technology:

With SHR technology the hair removal methodology that involves the hair pigment uses only 50 per cent of the energy for 

permanent hair removal. The remaining 50 per cent is absorbed into the stem cells responsible for hair production through 

the skin during treatment with SHR technology.

With SHR technology one does not need single pulses with high energy. The skin is massaged six to ten times using low 

energy but with high frequency. This procedure is referred to as the so-called “in-Motion” methodology, because the hand 

piece is moved over the treated area in sliding movements. (Unlike this, the IPL technology is called “stamp technology”.)

Using the SHR technology the skin is heated gently through the melanin and the stem cells with low energy (48 degrees) but 

with high frequency. In that way even lighter and finer hair can be treated and removed permanently in a better way. With 

IPL technology the skin is heated up to 70 degrees.
