When using the classical permanent hair removal procedure, energy is released through single pulses with as high an energy density as possible transient signals with an energy density as high as possible. The papilla absorbs the entire energy, and is supposed to be heated up to 70 degrees within a short time and destroyed in the process. Since the skin also contains melanin, however, it also absorbs that energy something which is not actually desired. That is why this method of treatment is often regarded as being painful and unpleasant. Besides, there is always a danger of unwanted side effects.
Fast and cheap hair removal with SHR:
Start of the pulse emission. The hand piece moves over the hairy skin and emits three pulses per second.
The temperature in the dermis rises. The epidermis is not strained, since the single pulses only have low energy and the contact area (sapphire) is intensely cooled.
Through the large number of pulses per area a high amount of energy is accumulated in the dermis. The hair-growth cells are thus heated to a clinically acceptable temperature in order to kill them off. All types of hair thickness and all pigmented hair can be successfully removed through that method.
