BBL technology harnesses the power of intense pulsed light to deliver outstanding results in photo rejuvenation therapy. Broad Band Light therapy in Chevy Chase can treat a wide range of skin conditions, including signs of aging.
How it Works
During your appointment, we cleanse the skin, apply eye protection, and apply a clear gel to the treatment area. Then, we simply pass the BBL device over the treatment area to apply the flashes of light.
This intense light penetrates your skin to treat pigments, tissue, or blood vessels. Your body will produce more collagen and work to repair the damage, which reduces the appearance of discoloration and wrinkles.
The whole treatment only takes about 15 minutes and then you can go back to your normal lifestyle.
Is BBL Therapy a Laser Treatment?
It’s important to note that BBL is not a laser treatment. It delivers intense pulsed light, instead of the more focused light of a laser. While lasers are a single wavelength, BBL uses a broad spectrum of light that is filtered in different ways to treat different conditions. It’s also capable of treating a larger area of skin than lasers.
Key Uses of Broad Band Light Therapy
BBL treats a wide range of skin concerns, including redness, sun damage, age spots, wrinkles and fine lines, dull skin, broken blood vessels, the effects of rosacea, freckles, birth marks and more. The treatment is safe for all areas of the body like face, neck, chest, arms, and hands.
