Struggling with redness, sun damage, or uneven skin tone? BBL HERO (Broadband Light High Energy Rapid Output) is an advanced light therapy treatment designed to address these common skin concerns. It works faster, more effectively, and with less discomfort than traditional IPL treatments, making it a top choice for improving skin tone and texture.
Here’s how BBL HERO works and why it’s a reliable option for achieving clearer, healthier skin.
What is BBL HERO?
BBL HERO, or Broadband Light High Energy Rapid Output, is a type of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to target various skin issues. Unlike traditional IPL treatments, BBL HERO offers a faster, more comfortable experience due to its high-energy rapid output.
How BBL HERO Works
BBL HERO uses different filters to focus on either oxyhemoglobin (redness) or melanin (pigmentation) in the skin. This flexibility allows it to treat a variety of skin concerns effectively. The BBL HERO device emits pulses of light that penetrate the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes and leading to clearer, more even-toned skin.
Why Should You Consider BBL HERO?
If you’re considering light therapy for skin improvement, BBL HERO has several standout features that set it apart from older IPL devices:
1. Speed and Efficiency
One of the most significant advantages of BBL HERO is its speed. While older IPL devices may take up to 20 minutes to treat larger areas like the back, BBL HERO can complete the same treatment in just 2 to 3 minutes. This rapid output allows us to treat larger body areas much quicker, saving you time during each session.
2. Comfortable Experience
BBL HERO is known for being a comfortable treatment option. Many of our patients find the procedure so relaxing that they even fall asleep during the session! The high-speed light pulses mean the treatment is quick, and most people don’t require numbing beforehand, making it a great choice for those who are concerned about discomfort.
How BBL HERO Can Benefit Your Skin
BBL HERO is versatile and can address multiple skin issues effectively. Here’s how it works for common concerns:
Treating Redness and Broken Capillaries
- BBL HERO is effective in targeting redness caused by broken capillaries or other skin conditions.
- Typically, redness and oxyhemoglobin concerns require 5 treatments, spaced one month apart.
- Maintenance treatments are recommended 2-3 times a year, depending on your skin’s needs.
Tackling Hyperpigmentation and Sun Damage
- BBL HERO is excellent for addressing hyperpigmentation from sun exposure, freckles, and age spots.
- We recommend starting with 3 treatments, one month apart, to achieve noticeable results.
- For maintenance, plan on 2-3 treatments annually or consider quarterly sessions for optimal skin clarity.
