Has your skin accumulated pigmentation issues and signs of aging over time? Sun, stress, and even genetics can leave your skin looking dull, hyperpigmented, and uneven. A face BBL, also known as photorejuvenation, can treat red and brown pigments as well as many signs of aging for clear, even-toned skin. This effective anti-aging treatment remains a favorite for many reasons.
What is Photorejuvenation Using BBL (BroadBand Light)?
As a facial treatment, BBL refers to BroadBand Light. Unlike a laser, which uses a single wavelength, a photofacial uses a spectrum of wavelengths to target many different types of skin issues in one treatment. You may also hear this treatment referred to as IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), a name that indicates the treatment uses light pulses to achieve results. However, a BBL photofacial is a “next-level” photofacial and far superior to a standard IPL photofacial. Many cosmetic healthcare practices and med spas also refer to this as the “Forever Young BBL”.
This non-invasive facial treatment uses light to break up pigment particles and trigger your skin cells to enter a more youthful, active state. A series of treatments leads to skin that looks dramatically smoother, clearer, and more even. A BBL photofacial targets tough-to-treat redness, vascular lesions, and rosacea that are not targeted through a laser facial or skin resurfacing. Multiple passes are done over your treatment area (usually face or sometimes chest) using several wavelengths that address both rejuvenation and tightening.
