Broad Band Light (BBL) therapy is an advanced and effective way to take years off your complexion. Using light therapy, BBL is able to target sun, age and brown spots in just minutes. If you’re looking to dramatically improve your skin’s complexion, color and texture, then BBL might be perfect for you.
What Can BBL Treat?
BBL can be used on most skin types to treat a number of different skin conditions:
- Age spots
- Freckles
- Red blemishes (spider veins and rosacea)
- Acne
- Uneven skin texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
BBL can also help with hair removal and skin firmness.
Where Can I Use BBL?
BBL can be used anywhere on the body, but the most common spots treated are:
- Face
- Chest
- Neck
- Hands
How Does BBL Work?
The light energy delivered by BBL gently heats the upper layers of your skin. Targeted areas of your skin will then absorb the heat and stimulate your skin cells to generate new collagen. This will help restore your skin to its natural beauty – making it smoother, more vibrant and younger looking.
What Can I Expect During Treatment?
Done within just minutes, BBL is quick and noninvasive. There is usually no need for a topical anesthetic. However, your treatment provider would be happy to provide one for more sensitive areas as needed.
Will I Have Any Downtime?
Most people experience little to no downtime. You should be able to go back to work, put on makeup and resume your normal activities.
Immediately after the treatment, you may experience some redness that should resolve within a few hours. For pigmented lesions, you may notice a darkening of the treated area, which will fade and flake off after a few days. You may experience slight swelling, especially if the treatment was done around the eyes, which will fade within a few days.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
We will tailor your BBL treatment plan to your desired results. We will consider all possible factors when making our recommendations, such as severity of the skin issues, the area(s) being treated and your skin type. In addition, we will recommend any other treatments that can be used in tandem to help you achieve your complexion goals.
Regular treatments – given at least once a year – have been proven to keep skin looking up to 10 years younger.
