BBL Laser, or Broadband Light therapy, uses intense pulsed light to rejuvenate skin, making it look clearer, firmer, and more youthful. It’s effective for treating hyperpigmentation, redness, facial vessels, loss of elasticity, acne, and rosacea.
Before undergoing BBL treatment, it’s crucial to protect your skin from the sun, inform your clinician about any medication you’re taking that could affect the treatment’s outcome, and avoid any procedures that might sensitize you to light.
The BBL procedure is generally gentle and safe. While no topical anaesthetic is usually needed, it may be used at your clinician’s discretion. Safety shields or glasses will protect your eyes during the procedure.
Post-treatment care involves managing any redness and following your clinician’s aftercare plan until the skin completely heals, typically within a week.
