What is a before and after ad?
A before and after ad shows the same subject in two states side by side, so the result of using the product is visible at a glance. It's common in skincare, cleaning, fitness and home improvement, but claims shown must be realistic and typical to stay within ad platform policies.

Full creative breakdown
Who this ad targets
This ad targets women aged around 45 to 60 going through perimenopause or menopause who have developed coarse chin and jawline hair due to hormonal changes. Many shave or pluck daily and feel self-conscious about stubble or bumps. They value honest, non-patronising communication and solutions that fit discreetly into a home routine. The humorous tone suits women who want to talk openly about menopause.
Copywriting analysis
The headline is written like a social caption, not an ad: lowercase, informal ('sucks') and finished with emojis. 'Zapping off' is playful and active, making the device sound quick and satisfying. Naming 'menopause hair' is the key move: specific, a little taboo and instantly qualifying. The sub-line shifts to benefits, listing three pains the product avoids and naming the product. The emoji choice is a little random, and the surfer may confuse some viewers, but it reinforces the carefree, liberated mood.
Visual design
A top text block and bottom split image create a clear hierarchy. The magnifier circles break the rectangular panels and draw the eye to the key detail. The warm pink-red tones of the skin dominate, giving the ad a natural, human feel. Simple 'before' and 'after' labels sit in the top corners. The white header keeps the headline and logo crisp and readable.
How to adapt this template for your brand
- Identify a specific life stage or situation that causes your customer's problem.
- Name it plainly in a casual, caption-style headline.
- Add a before/after with magnifier circles on the key detail.
- List three pains your product avoids in a sub-line.
- Use emojis sparingly to signal tone, and test without them too.
Tips for hair removal ads on Meta
On Meta, avoid targeting or wording that asserts personal attributes such as 'you are in menopause'; speaking in first person, as this ad does, is safer. Target women 45+ with broad interests. The square size fits Feed and Instagram; for Stories, stack before and after vertically with the circles larger. Ensure the before/after photos are genuine and from the same person.
About this creative
This square Nood ad starts with a white header area containing the Nood wordmark and a bold serif headline: 'zapping off the menopause hair because shaving sucks', followed by three emojis (exploding head, nail painting and a surfer). A smaller sans-serif line underneath promises reduced hair without ingrowns, bumps or irritation and names the Flasher Pro. The lower two-thirds are a side-by-side before/after of a chin and jawline. The 'before' panel shows reddish skin with a magnified circle revealing coarse dark stubble. The 'after' panel shows calmer, lighter skin and a magnified circle with barely visible hair. The zoom circles act like a dermatologist's loupe, adding a sense of evidence. The emojis and casual 'sucks' make an often embarrassing topic feel light and shared. Targeting a specific life stage, menopause, is a smart niche move that makes the right viewer feel seen immediately and differentiates from generic youth-focused hair-removal ads.
