Conclusion
The SHR is a good technique for laser/IPL hair removal - but ONLY if it is applied correctly!! The treatment area must be limited in size to allow the heat energy to build up, and allow the germ cells to reach the desired temperature.
If a long, sweeping motion is used, the germ cells will have cooled too far before the next energy pulse is delivered. They will simply never become hot enough. The final results will be poor.
Alternatively, the stamping technique can be applied very successfully, with either lasers or IPLs, as long as good skin surface cooling is also employed.
I hope this helps, but, no doubt, I'll probably come back to this subject at some point...
