Before starting treatment, patients typically take the following precautions:

• Refrain from sun exposure for at least two weeks prior to your session.
• Use a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to shield your skin from UV rays, which can interfere with laser technology.
• Avoid potent acne products containing retinoids.
• Refrain from exfoliating the treated area.

Because the treatment is gentle, there is no need to disrupt your regular activities. Initially, you may notice some redness, akin to a mild sunburn, but this can be concealed with makeup and typically fades within a few hours. Pigments may temporarily surface and look and feel like coffee grounds. Avoid interfering the process and let it exfoliate naturally, which generally takes around a week. Patience is key, and the results are well worth it.

Your BBL treatment result typically last between three to four months. Opting for three or four sessions annually can help to extend the longevity of these results.The frequency of treatments required each year varies based on your skin type and aesthetic goals, which we are happy to discuss comprehensively during your initial consultation. With each session, your skin continues to improve, building upon previous enhancements. Therefore, additional BBL treatments contribute to smoother, brighter, and clearer skin over time.

While many patients are delighted by visible improvements in their skin within a week after their initial BBL treatment, optimal results typically require 4-6 sessions. Initially, treated spots may darken, but over the next few weeks, you should observe healthier, rejuvenated, and more even skin tone. Benefits often include reduced brown spots, improved skin texture, and visible reduction of sun damage. These results are long-lasting, often lasting several months. Some individuals opt for touch-up treatments 3 to 4 times annually to maintain and extend their results.

BBL treatment should not be used for pregnant women and individuals with a history of abnormal reactions to sunlight.

BBL therapy represents an evolution of IPL photofacial treatments, supported by research showing it can restore gene expression patterns closer to those of youthful skin. While the uses and recovery processes are comparable, BBL offers several distinct advantages over traditional IPL, including:

• Customizable filtering and energy levels that enable providers to precisely target specific concerns.
• Enhanced comfort due to integrated cooling technology during treatments.
• Greater effectiveness, resulting in fewer sessions required to achieve desired results.
