Laser Hair Removal
Safe, effective and comfortable hair reduction for smoother skin.
Why choose SHR and E-light permanent hair reduction?
Say goodbye to traditional methods that can irritate the skin. SHR (Super Hair Removal) and E-Light laser technology offer a more comfortable experience with gradual heating and faster sessions.
Unlike older IPL methods, SHR and E-Light are designed to safely reduce hair growth across a broad range of skin tones, including fair and deeper complexions, with minimal discomfort and downtime. These technologies work by gently targeting the hair follicle while protecting surrounding skin.
Your treatment plan is based on your skin type and hair density. While individual results vary, most clients experience a visible reduction in unwanted hair over time.

FAQs.
How does SHR work?
SHR uses low energy pulses to gradually heat the dermis, weakening the follicle while avoiding damage to surrounding skin. This makes it more comfortable than traditional laser or single-pulse IPL systems.
Is laser hair removal painful?
Most clients describe the sensation as mild warmth or a rubber band snap. SHR is generally more comfortable than older IPL systems.
Can I treat darker skin tones?
Yes, SHR is suitable for many skin tones, including deeper ones, but settings will be customised to minimise risk of pigmentation changes.
Does it work on blonde or grey hair?
Lighter hairs contain less pigment and may not respond as well. A consultation will help determine if laser is appropriate.
How many sessions will I need?
Typically 6-10, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Results vary by hair and skin type.
Can I have treatments in summer?
Yes, but you’ll need to avoid sun exposure and use SPF. This will be explained during consultation.
