Review of Wellaholic's SHR Super Hair Removal - Why is SHR better than IPL for Hair Removal?

Introduction to SHR as a new form of laser hair removal Now, when it comes to the topic of hair removal, you might be familar with the various forms of hair removal, be it shaving, epilating, tweezing, waxing and IPL (intense pulsed light) hair removal. While IPL is the most permanent form of hair removal, many people are starting to pay attention to SHR (Super Hair Removal) as the better alternative to IPL. In this review, I am going to share more about Wellaholic's SHR treatment and explain why SHR is a better form of hair removal as compared to IPL in Singapore.

A Quick Introduction to IPL for Hair Removal First and foremost, IPL uses a single pulse of energy, at high intensity, which targets the customer's hair follicles and melanin. Melanin is produced in specialised cells called melanocytes.  This makes IPL more suitable for people with darker and coarser hair. ​A person with fairer skin will likely require more sessions as the IPL technology is less effective on them. On the other hand, while IPL is effective for darker-skinned people, they may have more uncomfortable session (i.e. PAIN!) since their skin will be absorbing more heat energy which would then be translated into pain when the heat affects the nerves.

What about SHR?

SHR is a relatively newer technology which uses gentler pulses of energy but at a higher frequency. This allows the skin to be heated gently, but with the rapid pulses, the energy is then accumulated by the skin. While 50% of the energy is targeted at the melanin (similar to IPL), the other 50% targets the stem cells responsible for hair production. ​This is a very important point to note as SHR thereby targets both fine and coarse hairs. Ultimately, this leads to less discomfort and pain, yet an improved efficacy. Because of the gradual accumulation of the energy into the skin, there is less trauma and irritation on the skin - making it ideal and suitable for everyone, regardless of skin tone and even for customers with sensitive skin.

How Many SHR Treatments is Necessary for Effective Hair Removal? ​If the hair is in the anagen phase of growth during treatment, which refers to the active (hair) growth phase, it can be easily destroyed as in the case with IPL technology. The advantage of SHR in this case is that it can work with customers during both their anagen phase and non-anagen phase, as SHR can target the 50% of the stem cells. Nevertheless, a three-to-four week recovery or "down" time is required to meet this anagen phase as well as to give the skin a recovery time before the next treatment.

Review of ExamFight - Your CFMAS Exam Question Bank

The CMFAS Exam Format After clicking on the "Begin Quiz" button, I was brought to a selection of 100 questions. Here, I can choose to attempt the CMFAS questions sequentially, (e.g. from 1, 2, 3... so on and so forth), but I can also choose to skip a question and then come back to try it again. Only after I am sure that I am ready to "submit" the question I can then submit the question for marking. The screenshot above shows my wrong answer and the green highlight is the correct answer. Okay I am not so good with CMFAS

Introduction to CMFAS To adequately review ExamFight, I will first need to give a simple introduction to what CMFAS means. The CMFAS Examinations are the licensing examinations for the capital markets and financial advisory services in Singapore. After successfully completing the relevant examination modules, candidates must lodge a notification with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) before they can carry out regulated activities. 

ExamFight Portal ​The reason why exam portals such as ExamFight exist is simply because students who are attempting these professional exams, need to find a source of knowledge, namely, CMFAS exam-related questions and answers to practice in order to get ready for the exam. There are various portals in Singapore which offers mock exam papers for students to attempt. Infact, if you check out Carousell, you will also find some vendors who are selling printouts for others to attempt questions. What I like about exam portals is the fact that the questions are all kept in a knowledge database, and can be easily updated and adjusted. Also, online exam portals allow students to easily access the question bank from any convenient location, be it via desktop or mobile. This will help them with their CMFAS certification.

The Ability to Review Questions Another nifty feature was the ability to mark questions for review. This is useful when you are stumped with a question, and you would like to answer it later on. By clicking on the "review question" button, you can highlight that specific CMFAS question in yellow so that you can come back to review this later. This simulates a real exam environment, and is useful if you would like to pace yourself so that you try to attempt exam within a certain time frame.

Payment and Conclusion Paying is very easy done via Paypal. Each module costs $21 and grants you an unlimited three-month access to all the questions in the specific module. For example, for CMFAS M5 exam module, there are about 4 volumes of 100 questions each - which works out to be 400 questions to attempt! I understand that ExamFight is constantly reviewing and adding more questions into the database, which is good! ​To try out ExamFight visit them at www.examfight.com
