BBL® HERO by Sciton

BroadBand Light® (BBL®), now with high-energy rapid output HERO, can quickly deliver forever results anywhere on the body!

  • New BBL® HERO is four times faster, delivers times the peak power, and is two times cooler than any IPL on the market.
  • BBL® HERO delivers more power, better results, and faster treatment times, often with fewer treatments needed.
  • Comfortable, fast, effective, little-to-no downtime is involved.

BBL® Corrective

Worried your freckles, age spots, or rosacea make you look less radiant and older? With BBL®, they will be a thing of the past!

The light energy delivered by BBL® will stimulate cellular regeneration. Typically with the first treatment, you will start to see smoother, more even, and vibrant skin. The photothermal energy will eliminate fine vessels that cause redness and reduce unwanted melanin that produces age spots and sun spots. Your skin will feel smoother, fine lines and pores will be less noticeable, and sunspots or uneven pigmentation will fade.

With BBL® corrective, you can:

  • Correct age spots and redness for smoother, healthier, and more vibrant skin
  • Improve pigmented lesions, such as dyschromia and ephelides
  • Improve vascular lesions, such as rosacea, telangiectasias, and cherry angiomas
  • Correct deeper lesions on darker skin types

It can take as little as five minutes, depending on the area you are looking to treat, as well as the treatment you are receiving. Treatment time varies from patient to patient.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work?

The BBL® HERO Forever Body treatment, from Sciton, uses intense pulsed light to target the pigment within the skin. It flashes specialized light as it is quickly moved across the treatment area. The pigment is initially darkened, helping you know that you had an optimal treatment. Within the next several days, your body’s natural healing process will remove the pigmented cells and replace them with fresh, new, undamaged cells.

How comfortable is the treatment?

Each flash of the light produces a feeling of warmth. Most patients easily tolerate the feeling without needing any anesthetic numbing cream.

How long does it take to see results?

This can vary depending on the individual, the area being treated, and the settings used. However, most patients see results in two to four weeks.

What is post-care like?

It is important that you wear a physical-barrier sunscreen and clothing. It’s also important to limit your sun exposure after your treatment.

How many treatments will I need?

You will see results after a single treatment. However, the number of treatments needed will depend on the severity of your pigmentation concerns. A typical patient requires two treatments.
