That is because SHR heats the hair root gradually and ICE Plus keeps the epidermis cool. Feeling nothing at all is rare, and in areas with thick hair you feel a little more.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Do I need a numbing cream?<\/summary>\n<p>With the Soprano Titanium this is usually not necessary. Please do not use a cream on your own initiative, but discuss it with Aleksandra first.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Where do you feel laser hair removal the most?<\/summary>\n<p>In areas with thick, dark hair and thin skin, such as the bikini area, underarms and upper lip. There is more pigment there, so more heat is created. We adjust the power per area.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>What is SHR?<\/summary>\n<p>SHR is the Alma Lasers technology in which the laser heats the hair root gradually with many short pulses, instead of one powerful pulse. Together with the cooling, this makes the treatment comfortable.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why do I need to shave the area beforehand?<\/summary>\n<p>Hair above the skin would absorb the laser energy at the surface. After shaving, the energy travels through the hair in the skin straight to the hair root, where it is needed.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why are three wavelengths better than one?<\/summary>\n<p>Hair roots sit at different depths and hair varies in thickness. With 755, 810 and 1064 nm at once, we reach both shallow and deep hair roots in one treatment.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is laser the same as IPL?<\/summary>\n<p>No. A laser emits focused light with fixed wavelengths, while IPL is a flash lamp with a broad spectrum of light. That makes laser energy easier to direct at the hair root.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Is the Soprano Titanium safe?<\/summary>\n<p>The Soprano Titanium is CE certified and used in clinics worldwide. In addition, every course of treatments at First Wax starts with an intake and a skin test.<\/p>\n<\/details><\/div>\n<p class=\"under\">Would you like to know what a treatment costs or how a course works?

There is more pigment there, so more heat is created. We adjust the power per area.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is SHR?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"SHR is the Alma Lasers technology in which the laser heats the hair root gradually with many short pulses, instead of one powerful pulse. Together with the cooling, this makes the treatment comfortable.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Why do I need to shave the area beforehand?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Hair above the skin would absorb the laser energy at the surface. After shaving, the energy travels through the hair in the skin straight to the hair root, where it is needed.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Why are three wavelengths better than one?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Hair roots sit at different depths and hair varies in thickness. With 755, 810 and 1064 nm at once, we reach both shallow and deep hair roots in one treatment.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is laser the same as IPL?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"No. A laser emits focused light with fixed wavelengths, while IPL is a flash lamp with a broad spectrum of light. That makes laser energy easier to direct at the hair root.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"Is the Soprano Titanium safe?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The Soprano Titanium is CE certified and used in clinics worldwide. In addition, every course of treatments at First Wax starts with an intake and a skin test.\"}}]}<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Home\/Laser hair removal\/Soprano Titanium The technology behind our laser Soprano Titanium: how laser hair removal works At First Wax we use the Soprano Titanium Special Edition by Alma Lasers.
