Photofacial is a popular skin treatment that utilizes IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology, also known as BBL (Broad Band Light). BBL is an innovative technology that sets new standards for skin conditions associated with aging, active lifestyles, and sun damage. BBL energy allows us to precisely treat age, sun spots, small facial veins, and many other skin conditions. The laser is tunable which means we have the ability to tailor specific treatments for each individual patient.
How does BBL work?
The light energy delivered by the BBL will gently heat the upper layers of your skin. The heat absorbed by the targeted areas will stimulate your skin cells to regenerate new collagen. This process will restore your skin to its natural beauty, blending its natural colors and making smoother, vibrant, and younger looking. In addition, the photothermal energy will eliminate fine vessels that cause redness and reduce unwanted melanin that produces pigmented lesions.
The conditions that can be treated include:
- Pigmented lesions (freckles and age spots)
- Vascular lesions (small blood vessels)
- Acne
- Skin Firmness
- Uneven skin texture
- Unwanted hair
Recommendation- 3 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart
