What You Need to Know

Procedure Time

Depending on the specific areas you wish to target, BBL treatments typically take between 15 to 20 minutes to complete. For a comprehensive full-face treatment, multiple sessions are necessary.

Side Effects & Recovery Times

After your procedure, you might notice mild to moderate redness lasting from 1 to 3 days. The pigment in the targeted areas may also darken over the next 48 hours, but the skin will naturally exfoliate within a week.

Results

Most clients see immediate results, which continue to improve over the following two weeks. Although these results are temporary, they can last for months or even years after achieving their desired complexion. For optimal results, we recommend undergoing at least two to three treatments spaced a month apart.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

  • Consultation: Like other medical procedures, your provider will take time before your session to discuss your concerns and review your medical history, ensuring that BBL Photo Facial treatments are suitable for you. They will also assess how many treatments you may need for optimal results. Additionally, your provider might take photos of the treatment area(s) to document your before and after transformation!
  • Treatment: Your provider will begin by cleaning and preparing the treatment area(s). They will apply a topical numbing cream to enhance your comfort during the procedure. Once everything is ready, your provider will use the laser in a grid-like pattern, flashing the light approximately every centimeter. Depending on your individual needs, they may go over the treatment area multiple times.
  • Post-Treatment: After your BBL treatment, your provider will cleanse your skin. While photo facials typically involve little to no downtime, you may notice mild to moderate redness. You can apply makeup immediately afterward if you wish. We recommend avoiding sun exposure for at least a week post-session and regularly applying sunscreen.

How do BBL Photo Facials Work?

BBL photo facials operate by directing a beam of light at specific treatment areas, such as enlarged brown spots or prominent blood vessels. Utilizing a range of light wavelengths, BBL photo facials effectively eliminate these imperfections on your face without causing damage or scarring. Furthermore, BBL treatments stimulate natural collagen production, helping tighten the tissue around the targeted areas. BBL laser treatments gently penetrate the upper layers of your skin to remove the underlying pigment and vessels contributing to skin damage. Unlike other methods, such as chemical peels that strip away an outer layer of skin and require extensive healing time, BBL treatments do not harm the outer skin, resulting in a significantly shorter recovery period.

What are the benefits of BBL treatments?

BBL facials utilize a broad spectrum of light wavelengths to help individuals of all ages achieve a fresh, smooth, and vibrant skin tone and texture. A BBL session:

  • Reduces hyperpigmentation
  • Eliminates visible veins and capillaries
  • Diminishes fine lines and wrinkles
  • Reduces age spots and sun spots
  • Alleviates redness and inflammation
  • Treats superficial acne scars
  • Reduces deeper acne scars
  • Provides deep rejuvenation with minimal downtime
  • Delivers long-lasting results

Are BBL photo facials painful?

You may experience minimal discomfort during your session, which will last between 24 and 48 hours. However, cold air or a cooling system can ease this discomfort.

What is the recovery process for BBL photo facials?

After your procedure, mild to moderate redness may be present for 1 to 3 days. The pigment in the treated areas may darken over the next 24 to 48 hours, but this skin will naturally exfoliate within a week.

What's the downtime for BBL photo facials?

Each session lasts between 15 to 20 minutes, and with minimal downtime, you can resume your daily activities immediately after the BBL procedure.

How long will my BBL photo facial results last?

Most clients notice immediate results following their BBL photo facial, with further improvements occurring over the next week. With a series of treatments spaced one month apart, many clients report lasting results for several months and even years after their sessions!

How many treatments are required?

While results can be seen immediately, multiple sessions are necessary for a full-facial treatment. Depending on the severity of your concerns, we recommend a minimum of 3 to 5 treatments spaced one month apart.
