BBL (Broadband Light)

 

BBL (Broadband light) is a laser treatment that uses light energy to penetrate the skin and help it heal from within. The light energy delivered by BBL will gently heat the upper layers of your skin. The laser light is absorbed by the blood vessels and melanin in the skin that cause discoloration and visible veins. The blood vessels are destroyed and absorbed by the skin, and the laser energy triggers your body’s natural healing process, prompting the generation of new collagen and elastin, resulting in refreshed, renewed, smoother, and more vibrant skin.

Patients who suffer from sun damaged skin, pigmentation, redness, rosacea, broken capillaries and active acne will all benefit greatly from this device.

This treatment has little to no pain. Patients experience a warm and mild snapping sensation during treatment. Depending on what area you're getting done, the BBL can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour. 

The BBL requires virtually no downtime. Most patients are able to return to their daily life without a worry. We do require no physical activities for the first 48 hours. While you can expect some redness initially, this should fade within a few hours. Some pigmented lesions may initially darken then start to fade and flake after a few days.
