What Is BroadBand Light Therapy?

BroadBand Light therapy is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses advanced intense pulsed light technology to address various skin concerns and improve overall skin tone and texture. This innovative therapy targets and treats sun damage, age spots, redness, rosacea, and uneven pigmentation by delivering precise light energy to the upper layers of the skin. The light energy gently heats the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting the regeneration of healthy skin cells. Suitable for all skin types, BBL therapy provides noticeable improvements with minimal discomfort and downtime, making it an effective solution for achieving a clearer, more youthful complexion.

What to Expect During Your BroadBand Light Treatment

Your BroadBand Light therapy treatment experience at Aesthetx is designed to be comfortable and effective. When you arrive, your practitioner will start by cleansing the treatment area and applying a cool gel to enhance the light's effectiveness and ensure your comfort. You'll be given protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the intense pulsed light. During the procedure, the BBL device will be gently passed over your skin, delivering precise pulses of light energy to target specific skin concerns. You may feel a mild warming sensation or slight snapping as the light is absorbed by the skin, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated. As soon as the procedure is finished, you'll be able to head home or return to work immediately.
