Advantages ofSHR Laser Treatments
At Wellaholic, we offer advanced SHR(Super Hair Removal) treatments thatprovide a long-term solution tounwanted hair. Unlike creams, SHR targets thehair follicles directly, leading toup to 90% permanent reduction after 8–12 sessions. Thismethod is safefor all skintypes and isvirtually painless due to itscooling technology.
By comparing these methods, it’s clear that while creams serve as ashort-term fix, SHR offers amore effective andsustainable solution for men seeking smooth, hair-free skin inSingapore.

Why Choose SHR Over Creams?
Long-Term Cost Savings
While hair removal creams may seem affordable initially, their recurring costs add up over time. For example, using a cream costing $15–$30 per application can amount to over $300 annually for regular use. In contrast, Wellaholic’s SHR treatments start at just $28 per session, with permanent results achieved in 8–12 sessions. This makes SHR a more cost-effective solution in the long run.
Method | Cost Per Use | Annual Cost (Estimate) | Long-Term Results |
---|---|---|---|
Hair Removal Creams | $15–$30 | $300–$600 | Temporary (3–7 days) |
SHR Treatments | From $28 | $224–$336 (8–12 sessions) | Permanent reduction |
Skin Health and Comfort
Hair removal creams often contain harsh chemicals that can cause irritation, redness, or even burns on sensitive skin. SHR treatments, on the other hand, are gentle on the skin and improve its texture over time. The cooling technology used in SHR ensures a comfortable experience with minimal risk of side effects. Customers at Wellaholic frequently report smoother and healthier skin after completing their treatment plans.
By choosing SHR over creams, men can enjoy a safer, more effective hair removal method that not only saves money but also enhances skin health and confidence.

How Does SHR Work?
Pre-Treatment Preparation
At Wellaholic, we guide all customers through essential pre-treatment steps to ensure optimal results. Before your SHR session, it’s important to:
- Shave the treatment area 24 hours in advance to allow the laser to target hair follicles effectively.
- Avoid sun exposure or tanning for at least 48 hours before the session to reduce skin sensitivity.
- Keep the skin clean and free from lotions, oils, or deodorants on the day of treatment.
These steps help maximise the effectiveness of SHR while minimising any potential discomfort.
During the Session
SHR treatments are designed to be quick, effective, and virtually painless. Each session typically lasts 15–30 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. The SHR device emits low-energy pulses at a high frequency, gradually heating the hair follicles while keeping the skin cool with advanced cooling technology. This ensures a comfortable experience with minimal downtime. After each session, we provide detailed post-care instructions to help customers maintain smooth and healthy skin between treatments.
