Introduction
Are you wondering why your hair removal therapist keeps emphasizing the importance of monthly maintenance sessions?
We see this question often from our customers at Wellaholic. Through our combined experience at Wellaholic and Laser Clinics Australia, we’ve observed how consistent monthly treatments make a real difference in achieving permanent hair reduction. The science behind Super Hair Removal (SHR) shows that hair grows in cycles. Each follicle needs the right timing and energy level for effective treatment. We’ve helped thousands of customers achieve their smooth skin goals by following a proper maintenance schedule.
This article will explain the biology of hair growth and why monthly SHR sessions are key to getting the results you want.
Understanding Hair Growth Cycles
The effectiveness of SHR hair removal is deeply connected to your hair’s natural growth cycle. We’ve observed through treating thousands of customers that hair follicles go through three distinct phases: anagen (growth), catagen (transition), and telogen (resting). At any given time, different hair follicles are in various stages of this cycle, which is why multiple sessions are necessary for complete coverage.
In Singapore’s humid climate, we notice that hair tends to grow faster and thicker. Our customers often report accelerated hair growth due to the tropical weather, making it even more crucial to maintain regular treatment intervals. The 28-day spacing between sessions isn’t arbitrary – it’s scientifically calculated to target the maximum number of follicles in their active growth phase.
The Science Behind SHR Technology
At Wellaholic, we use advanced triple wavelength SHR technology that works differently from traditional laser treatments. While traditional lasers target only actively growing hair, our SHR system gradually heats the hair follicles through multiple passes. This gentle approach allows us to treat a broader range of hair types and skin tones effectively.
Monthly maintenance ensures that we can target new hair follicles as they enter the growth phase. We’ve found that customers who maintain consistent 28-day intervals achieve up to 95% permanent hair reduction, compared to those who have irregular treatment schedules.
Why the 28-Day Interval Matters
The timing between sessions is crucial for optimal results. Through our extensive experience at Wellaholic, we’ve observed that:
| Treatment Interval | Impact on Results |
|---|---|
| Every 28 Days | Optimal results, progressive reduction |
| Under 28 Days | Ineffective, waste of sessions |
| Over 35 Days | Reduced effectiveness, slower progress |
Making the Most of Lifetime Maintain Mode
At Wellaholic, we’ve designed our Lifetime Maintain Mode program to help customers maintain their smooth, hair-free results affordably. After completing 12 sessions of SHR treatments, our customers can enjoy permanent 50% savings on all future maintenance sessions. We see this as a long-term investment in our customers’ journey to permanent hair reduction.
The program offers remarkable flexibility with treatments available at all our outlets across Singapore. Small areas like underarms start from just $49, while larger areas like legs or back are priced at $69 per session. For Brazilian or Boyzilian treatments, customers enjoy special rates of $99 per session. These prices represent significant savings compared to regular treatment costs, making long-term maintenance both affordable and convenient.
Lifetime Maintain Mode Benefits
| Feature | Regular Price | Maintain Mode Price |
|---|---|---|
| Small Areas | $98 | $49 |
| Large Areas | $138 | $69 |
| Brazilian/Boyzilian | $198 | $99 |
What makes our Lifetime Maintain Mode truly special is its perpetual validity. Unlike traditional packages that expire, these special rates remain valid indefinitely as long as you maintain your membership with us. We’ve found that this approach helps our customers stay committed to their hair removal journey while enjoying significant cost savings in the long run.
