What is BroadBand Light (BBL)?
BroadBand Light (BBL) is an innovative form of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment that uses a broad spectrum of light to target diverse skin conditions. It is a versatile and powerful procedure designed to enhance the appearance of aging skin, sun damage, and other skin imperfections. BBL can treat a comprehensive range of skin issues, including pigmented spots, vascular lesions, acne, and age spots.
Your skin is continuously exposed to environmental and aging factors that can lead to age spots, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone and texture. These indicators of aging can make you look older than you feel. Fortunately, BroadBand Light (BBL) therapy offers an effective solution to address these concerns with minimal downtime.
How Does BBL Work?
The BBL treatment works by sending pulses of light energy to the skin. This light energy heats the upper layers of the skin, stimulating skin cells to produce new collagen. This process helps to replace old, damaged skin cells with fresh, healthy ones, resulting in a rejuvenated appearance.
