What is BBL?
Between the sun, harsh cleansers, pollution, and aging, our skin can become dull and wrinkled (two of our least favorite words). Thankfully, with BroadBand Light™ Therapy, you don’t have to be stuck with skin issues. Think of BBL as a multitasker—from age spots to sun damage—it can pretty much tackle it all.
BBL is the next generation of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy. The treatment uses short blasts of high-intensity light to produce younger-looking skin that’s firmer and more even in tone and texture. With little recovery time and no surgery, you’re going to start wondering if this anti-aging, skin rejuvenating, sun damage-reversing treatment is magic.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Does BBL Work?
The light energy delivered by the BBL will gently heat the upper layers of your skin. The heat absorbed by the targeted areas will stimulate your skin cells to regenerate new collagen. This process will restore your skin to its natural beauty, blending its natural colors and making it smoother, vibrant and younger-looking. In addition, the photothermal energy eliminates the fine vessels that cause redness and reduces the unwanted melanin that produces pigmented lesions. The BBL machine is equipped with advanced cooling features, allowing the use of high-powered energy with minimal discomfort. BBL is a safe, effective approach to younger-looking skin. It is recommended that individuals undergo treatment two to four times per year for optimal results.
Why Should I Get BBL?
Your face is one of the main areas of your body that immediately gives away your age. Years of unprotected sun exposure, harsh cleansers, and the process of aging can do a number on your skin, making it look dull and wrinkled. BBL helps reverse the signs of aging by minimizing sun spots, sun damage, and more.
What Can I Expect After BBL?
Immediately following treatment, you can expect to see mild redness, and it may feel like a slight sunburn in the treated area. This should dissipate after a few hours, but in some cases, it could last a day or two. You can start to see healthier looking skin just several days after treatment. Sun spots, age spots, and or broken blood vessels usually begin to clear up in one to two weeks.
What can BBL treat?
BBL can treat Photofacials, Pigmented Lesions, Age Spots, Vascular Lesions (Small Blood Vessels), Freckles, Rosacea, and Acne.
What should I expect during Broadband light PhotoFacial treatments?
Before Treatment
You’ll be asked to stay out of sunlight before getting the treatment done.
If you’ve tanned recently, we’ll ask you to wait a while before coming in for treatments. We’ll ask you to avoid medications that make you more sensitive to light, but always consult your doctor before stopping prescribed medications.
During Treatment
Treatments are quick and usually take about 30–60 minutes.
During the treatment, your skin may appear slightly red and swollen. This is a normal reaction. You might feel a slight warming of the skin and mild discomfort during treatment.
After Treatment
You’ll be asked to avoid scented lotions, exfoliants, and aggressive scrubbing.
It’s normal for freckles and sunspots to initially get darker and they usually flake off within one to three weeks. You might feel something like a sunburn after the treatment, but an ice pack should help.
