At Femme Med and Spa, we use the advanced BBL HEROic device to treat skin concerns like sun damage, age spots, acne, and uneven skin tone. This non-invasive BroadBand Light (BBL) treatment is quick and effective and provides noticeable results while keeping you comfortable. We’re here to help you feel confident in your own skin.
Boost Collagen Production & Correct Skin Concerns
BroadBand Light (BBL) is a powerful, non-invasive treatment that uses pulses of light to target and correct skin imperfections. The BBL HEROic device can address issues like sun damage, age spots, acne, and uneven skin tone. By stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture, BBL promotes a more youthful, radiant complexion. With quick, comfortable sessions and minimal downtime, it’s an effective way to enhance your skin’s appearance.
BroadBand Light (BBL) Can Treat:
- Sun damage and age spots
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Acne and acne scars
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Vascular lesions, such as broken capillaries
- Redness and rosacea
- Enlarged pores
- Hyperpigmentation or dark spots
How Does BroadBand Light (BBL) Work?
BroadBand Light (BBL) uses intense pulses of light to target and penetrate the skin at different depths. The light energy is absorbed by specific pigments in the skin, such as melanin (for dark spots) and hemoglobin (for blood vessels), which helps reduce discoloration and redness.
BBL also stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture and elasticity. The treatment promotes a rejuvenated appearance by encouraging the body’s natural healing process, resulting in smoother, clearer, and more youthful-looking skin.
Advantages of BroadBand Light (BBL):
- Non-invasive with minimal downtime
- Quick treatment sessions with lasting results
- Targets multiple skin concerns in one treatment
- Safe for all skin types (I-V)
- Stimulates collagen production for smoother skin
- Improves skin tone, texture, and elasticity
- Requires little to no recovery time after treatment
Is BroadBand Light (BBL) Painful?
BBL treatments are generally not painful. Most patients experience only mild discomfort, similar to the feeling of a rubber band snapping against the skin. To enhance your comfort, the BBL HEROic device uses a cooling system that helps keep your skin cool during the treatment. If you’re particularly sensitive, a topical numbing cream can be applied before your session.
How Long Does a BBL Treatment Take?
The length of your treatment depends on the area being treated. For smaller areas, such as the face, sessions typically take 15-30 minutes. For larger areas, such as the back, treatments may take 30-45 minutes. Since BBL is quick and efficient, it’s easy to fit into your schedule.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The number of treatments required varies depending on the condition you’re treating and your skin type. For optimal results, many patients benefit from a series of 3-5 treatments spaced a few weeks apart. After the initial series, maintenance treatments are usually recommended every 3-6 months to preserve results and keep your skin looking youthful and refreshed.
What Should I Expect After a BBL Treatment?
After your treatment, you may experience mild redness or slight swelling in the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects usually subside within a few hours to a day. Pigmented spots may darken before they begin to fade, and some redness may appear to get worse before it improves. However, you can resume most normal activities right after your session.
