What Is BBL?
A BBL laser uses broadband light to treat skin discoloration, imperfections, and pigmentation. The light energy penetrates the outer layers of the skin, working to break down pigmentation and stimulate the skin’s natural healing process. As the skin heals, new collagen is produced, resulting in improved skin tone, texture, and appearance.
Your procedure may take a few minutes to half an hour depending on the size of the area to be treated and the type of procedure performed.
How Does Forever Young BBL Work?
We use this light-based treatment to minimize redness, blood vessels, scars, and brown spots and to smooth uneven skin texture. The procedure works by targeting treatment areas with rapid pulses of broadband light, which gently warms the skin’s outer layers. Deeper layers of skin absorb the heat, triggering the production of new collagen.
Your Forever Young BBL Timeline
Before Treatment
Protect your skin from the sun for 4 weeks before your BBL procedure.
24 Hours After
Skin may appear red or swollen and feel like a mild sunburn. Apply ice packs to minimize swelling. Strictly avoid any sun exposure.
3 Days After
Avoid sun exposure and use a sun block with a protection factor of 30+, reapplying every 2 hours. Treated pigmented skin may become darker and begin flaking.
7 to 10 Days After
Avoid direct sun exposure and continue using and reapplying sun block. Expect dark, scaly areas to begin falling off.
What Happens During a Forever Young BBL Treatment?
Forever Young BBL treatments are a gentler alternative to intense pulsed light (IPL) procedures that can still turn back the clock on signs of aging with no downtime and minimal discomfort. The procedure can be customized to address specific skin concerns. The system uses infrared invisible light technology to target the lower layers of the skin and work at the molecular level.
Forever Young BBL can create a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance and is recommended for treating:
- Rosacea
- Vascular redness
- Sun damage to the face, chest, back, hands, and arms
- Small spider veins
- Broken capillaries
When the skin’s deeper layers absorb the heat generated during the treatment, it triggers the production of new collagen.
