Broadband Light - BBLâ„¢ (The most advanced IPL System available)

This light-based procedure reduces pigmented lesions and unwanted blood vessels in the skin through a process known as selective photothermolysis. Essentially, dark areas in the skin and blood vessels absorb light more intensely than uninvolved areas. The dark or vascular areas then are selectively removed. Through this form of natural selection, the dark regions of the skin and unwanted blood vessels are destroyed while the light ones are relatively unaffected. When specially selected filters are utilized, the BBL allows for highly effective treatment of:
• Freckles / Sun Spots (aka solar lentigines)
• Rosacea
• Age spots
• Brown spots, birth marks
• Hyperpigmentation / Melasma
• Poikiloderma (sun damaged neck skin)

In addition, BBL treatments can also reduce the incidence of spider or varicose veins. It can be used to treat:
• Spider veins
• Broken capillaries
• Facial veins
• Telanglectasia

Finally, BBL can also have a significant impact on scars, striae, laser hair reduction and skin tightening.

In general, patients do not feel any or minimal discomfort from, nor need any downtime after BBL treatments. They can return to work immediately after the treatment.
