How Sciton BBL works:
BBL HERO uses the latest IPL technology to target pigment (brown or red) within the skin. It is a non-invasive treatment that delivers BBL to the epidermis and dermis, stimulating changes in skin tone, texture, elasticity and pigmentation.
Your therapist will use BBL’s CoolComfort handpiece (which provides contact cooling to protect the epidermis) and will work quickly while BBL is emitted in flashes across the treatment area.
Initially, pigment in your skin is darkened, which is the preferred result clinically, and helps you know that you have had an optimal treatment.
BBL HERO treatments are no-downtime, comfortable procedures that can provide both targeted treatments and ongoing skin maintenance.
What areas can Sciton BBL treat:
With its broad range of wavelengths, BBL HERO can treat all of the following, non-invasively.
Acne (destroys acne-causing bacteria and reduces inflammation and redness, using a combination of blue, yellow and infrared light that can address acne on almost any part of the body – face, neck and back being the most common treatment areas. Effective for adults and teenagers)
Rosacea and Erythema (redness of skin caused by injury or another inflammation, often presenting as a rash. Caused by injured or inflamed blood capillaries)
Pigmentation and Pigmented skin lesions (lesions that are either brown, black or blue-grey in colour, and mostly caused by sun damage): some birthmarks, age spots/liver spots, moles and ephelides (freckles), dyschromia
Solar lentigines (a solar lentigo is more commonly known as an age spot or liver spot. Unlike freckles, solar lentigines tend to form after the age of 30 and are sun-induced lesions, typically appearing on areas exposed to natural light.)
Vascular skin lesions (caused by ruptured blood vessels): telangiectasia, some birthmarks, port-wine stains, rosacea, cherry angiomas, spider veins, broken capillaries, dilated or broken blood vessels.
Sciton BBL Laser
BBL reduce pigmentation and redness, it has also been clinically shown to alter the expression of genes associated with ageing. This means that BBL-treated skin not only looks clearer it actually functions more like younger skin. Over time, this results in:
Increased collagen and elastin production
Firmer, more even-toned skin
Reduction in fine lines and laxity
Noticeably smoother texture
BBL HERO is suitable for Fitzpatrick skin types I-V. Please note that BBL HERO cannot be used on Fitzpatrick skin type VI, nor on suntanned type V.
Your skin type will be assessed before any BBL HERO to determine the wavelength settings necessary for your treatment.
