At Advanced Aesthetics M.D. Med Spa, we specialize in treating brown/sun spots, fine lines and wrinkles, acne and acne scars, and improving skin texture with BBL BroadBand Light photorejuvenation.
What are the differences and similarities between BBL and IPL?
Sciton BBL BroadBand Light phototherapy is the latest and very best non-invasive, non-ablative (no recovery needed) laser skin treatment. BBL is the advanced skin treatment that was previously known as IPL phototherapy.
BBL or BroadBand Light technology by Sciton is an enhanced and improved version of IPL, created to increase safety and improve results as well as reduce discomfort and pain experienced with the old version IPL photofacial. BBL excels in efficiency and power by using dual-lamp technology and specific filters for better targeting of problems in the skin, therefore improving skin health and delaying skin aging through collagen reactivation. BBL phototherapy is a safer and significantly more comfortable laser skin treatment because it uses long protective pulses along with dynamic skin cooling.
Both BBL phototherapy and IPL (Intense Puled Light Therapy) are forms of photorejuvenation that uses scattered light energy to treat targets within the skin such as brown spots, pigmentation, red and blue spots and spider veins, hair, texture, pores, and acne.
What should you expect from your treatment?
Before your BBL phototherapy treatment, avoid tanning your skin and consult with your doctor about any products you should avoid in your skincare routine. Before the treatment begins, a cooling gel will be applied to the treatment area. The procedure itself takes about 30 minutes and is easily tolerated. Depending on the condition being treated, it may require a series of treatments to see optimal results, that’s why it’s important to schedule a complimentary consultation with one of our skin care experts at Advanced Aesthetics M.D. Med Spa.
Do BBL treatments require downtime?
This technology corrects skin damage without the disruption of the skin’s surface, requiring no downtime! Sciton BBL is setting a new gold-standard technology for treating skin discoloration, brown/sunspots, spider veins, broken capillaries, redness, improving fine lines and texture. Although there may be slight swelling or redness, these will fade within a few hours and patients can immediately resume normal daily activities. Makeup can be applied immediately after treatment. No other technology provides the long-term improvement and texture of the complexion, while simultaneously treating a wide range of skin conditions, without disrupting your busy lifestyle.
