The Tech That Delivers Beautiful Skin

What is Sciton BBL®?

The Sciton BBL® (Broadband Light) laser is a powerful technology that stimulates the body’s natural healing process and resurfaces the skin for incredible anti-aging results. Since the BBL® laser uses multiple wavelengths of light energy, it can treat a wide variety of common skin concerns.

This FDA-approved intense pulsed light treatment targets pigmented skin, redness, uneven skin texture, sagging skin, age spots, and vascular lesions (visible blood vessels), then breaks down the pigmentation to create an even tone. Sciton BBL® laser skin resurfacing can be used on the face, neck, chest, arms, and back of the hands for full-body skin rejuvenation.

What to Expect

What is a BBL Treatment Like?

During a typical session:

  1. Your medical aesthetician will first clean your face to remove any makeup or face creams you might have applied, and you will be given a protective eye shield to wear during treatment. A clear gel will be applied to the skin to protect it and keep you comfortable while the BBL® applicator distributes light energy across the problematic areas of the skin.
  2. A handheld device delivers precise pulses of light energy to the treatment area.
  3. The heat absorbed by pigmentation or blood vessels helps clear discoloration while gently encouraging new collagen growth.

Most patients describe the sensation as a quick snap or mild warmth. Treatment takes anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.

Afterward, pigmentation may darken slightly before naturally flaking away, revealing vibrant skin beneath.

Sciton BBL Recovery

There is no downtime or recovery required after a BBL® Photofacial, but you should avoid sun exposure since this can worsen your hyperpigmentation. Over the next week, the pigmented lesions will darken and flake off. Do not pick at the flaking pigmentation since this can damage your skin. Avoid direct sun exposure during the healing process, and use SPF to protect your results.

Long-Term Renewal

Sciton BBL Results

Once your treated skin is healed, you will see a brighter complexion and more even texture. For optimal results, 3 BBL® treatments scheduled one month apart are recommended, but the number of treatments you may need varies for each patient.

The typical treatment plan varies by patient and concern. Your provider will recommend the exact number of treatments during your consultation. With proper skincare and regular maintenance treatments, results can last for months or even years.

Patient Review

I want to start by saying I am an aesthetician myself and I was so impressed with the level of professionalism the staff at Blume Skin demonstrated. I received the BBL laser treatment and I am very happy with my results. I will be going back to complete the three recommended treatments.
