BBL™ Phototherapy:
Our new Sciton Broadband Light (BBL) laser offers a different approach to phototherapy used to treat:
· Age Spots
· Freckles
· Hyperpigmentation
· Rosacea
· Port Wine Stains
· Red Spots/Hemangiomas
· Small Facial Veins
The most common areas of treatment with this laser are the face, neck, chest, shoulders, and hands. Areas of the body that are most exposed to sunlight and have damaging effects are successfully treated.
BBL™ Phototherapy uses the power of pulsed light treat a broad range of skin conditions caused by skin aging and sun exposure. Treatments with this laser result in smoother, more vibrant, youthful skin.
The Sciton® BBL™ system gently heats the upper layers of the skin. The targeted skin areas will absorb the heat which stimulates the skins cells to generate new collagen. The Photothermal energy targets and eliminates many fine blood vessels and unwanted melanin that causes pigmented lesions. Your skin is restored to natural beauty with a more uniform skin color looking smooth, vibrant, and young.
During the use of the BBL™ laser, your eyes will be protected with safety glasses and you may feel your skin warm up or a tingling sensation as the light is absorbed into the targeted area. Procedure times last about 30 minutes depending on the area of treatment.
Every patient is different, but most commonly, it will take up to five treatments at 2 to 4 week intervals to reach the desired result. The best part … this is a non-invasive procedure with little to no downtime. As a patient, you will be able to return to work and resume most activities immediately; however, you will be sensitive to ultra-violet light and should avoid direct sun exposure until the area is healed.
