Difference between IPL and SHR/UHR Diode Laser
A question that is asked again and again. Many know the IPL method and are disappointed, have had pain or even suffered burns.

double effect
The SHR/UHR Diode Laser acts not only along the hair as in the IPL (via the dye melanin) but also directly on the stem cells of the hair roots and destroys them reliably. An IPL generates more than 75 degrees for about 10-20 milliseconds, the diode laser heats the hair roots successively to about 45 degrees for a long time, which destroys the hair root reliably and gently.
