SHR technology is a breakthrough innovation in IPL treatments. It scans the treatment area with up to 10 flashes per second, gradually heating the targeted area for more comfortable hair reduction than traditional high-intensity IPL.

SHR is the latest evolution of IPL technology. Unlike traditional IPL that delivers single high-energy pulses, SHR uses rapid, low-energy pulses in a gentle scanning motion.
More comfortable treatment with reduced skin irritation.
Ideal for larger areas such as legs, arms, back, and other broad treatment zones.
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a clinically proven hair reduction treatment. Light at specific wavelengths is absorbed by melanin in the hair follicle, converting to heat and reducing future hair growth.
Standard IPL is ideal for underarms, bikini line, facial areas, and smaller treatment areas not suitable for SHR.
Many clients notice visible reduction after 2–3 sessions, with regrowth becoming finer, lighter, and slower over time.
Some clients may require maintenance treatments once or twice per year depending on hormonal factors.
Hair grows in different cycles, and treatments are most effective during the active growth phase. Multiple sessions are required for optimal results.
Face: 6–8 sessions · Underarms & Bikini: 6–8 sessions · Legs, Arms & Back: 6–10 sessions · Men’s coarse hair areas: 8–10 sessions.
Treatment intervals: Facial areas every 4 weeks · Body areas every 4–6 weeks.
Transparent treatment pricing for facial, body, and men’s areas, with consultation support to recommend the most suitable plan.

Yes — shaving is recommended. Shave 24 hours before your appointment and avoid waxing, plucking, or threading during your treatment course, as these remove the follicle being targeted.
SHR & IPL provide long-term hair reduction, not instant permanent removal. After a full course of treatments, most clients experience significant and lasting reduction.
Most clients describe the sensation as a mild warm flick or gentle heat. SHR is designed to be more comfortable than traditional IPL because it gradually heats the follicle instead of delivering one strong pulse.
April Beauty — Hair Reduction
Fast, comfortable and long-lasting results for smooth, hair-free skin all year round. Feel confident in your skin — anytime.
SHR technology is a breakthrough innovation in IPL treatments. The difference between IPL SHR and other IPL machines is that SHR scans the treatment area with up to 10 flashes per second. This gradually heats the targeted area for painless hair reduction, instead of high intensity shots that can cause discomfort experienced with traditional IPL.
Treatments are suitable for a wide range of skin types and hair colours. Your clinician will discuss your expected results during your consultation.
The Technology
SHR is the latest evolution of IPL technology. Unlike traditional IPL that delivers single high-energy pulses, SHR uses rapid, low-energy pulses in a gentle scanning motion. This gradually heats the hair follicle, making the treatment more comfortable, faster, and ideal for larger areas.
Reducing treatment time by up to 50%.
IPL is a clinically proven hair reduction treatment. The device emits light at specific wavelengths that are absorbed by melanin in the hair follicle. The light energy converts to heat, safely disrupting the follicle and reducing future hair growth.
With a full course of treatments, IPL delivers long-lasting hair reduction and smoother skin.
How It Works
Hair grows in different cycles, and treatments are most effective during the active growth phase (anagen phase). Because not all hairs grow at the same time, multiple sessions are required for optimal results.
Many clients notice visible reduction after 2–3 sessions. Hair becomes finer, lighter and slower growing over time.
Some clients may require maintenance treatments once or twice per year depending on hormonal factors. Your free consultation includes a personalised treatment plan tailored to your skin and hair type.
