What You Need to Know

Procedure Time

BBL treatments generally take 15 to 20 minutes to complete, depending on the specific areas being treated. A full-face treatment will require several sessions.

Side Effects & Recovery Times

Post-procedure, you may experience mild to moderate redness lasting between 1 to 3 days. The pigment in the treated areas may darken within 48 hours, but the skin will naturally exfoliate within a week.

Results

Many clients notice immediate results that continue to enhance over the next two weeks. While these effects are temporary, they can last for months or even years after reaching your desired complexion. We suggest at least 2 to 3 treatments spaced one month apart for the best outcomes.

What to Look Forward to During Your Visit

  • Consultation: Before your session, your provider will discuss your specific concerns and review your medical history, ensuring that BBL Photo Facial treatments are the right choice for you. They will also determine the number of treatments required to achieve the best possible results. Your provider may take photographs of the treatment area(s) to illustrate your transformation from before to after!
  • Treatment: Your provider will clean and prepare the treatment area(s) before the procedure. To ensure your comfort, they will apply a topical numbing cream. Once the area is ready, your provider will move the laser over your skin in a grid pattern, flashing the light roughly every centimeter. Depending on your needs, they may need to treat the area multiple times.
  • Post-Treatment: Following your BBL treatment, your provider will cleanse your skin. Although photo facials generally require no downtime, you might experience mild to moderate redness. You can apply makeup right away if you choose. We advise avoiding sun exposure for at least a week after your treatment and consistently using sunscreen.

How do BBL Photo Facials Work?

BBL photo facials direct a focused beam of light to specific areas of concern, such as enlarged brown spots or visible blood vessels. By employing a combination of light wavelengths, BBL photo facials effectively target and eliminate imperfections on your face without causing any damage or scarring. Additionally, these treatments stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, which helps tighten the tissue surrounding the treated areas. BBL laser treatments work by gently penetrating the outer layers of skin to eliminate the underlying pigment and vessels that cause skin damage. Unlike chemical peels that remove an outer layer of skin and necessitate significant healing time, BBL treatments do not damage the outer skin, leading to a considerably reduced recovery time.
