Quite often, people come in complaining about dark spots on the skin. One way we recommend that they treat them is to use the broadband light. It has a filter that targets dark spots with light to remove them. What happens is we do the treatment and then in about five to seven days, those dark spots slough off. Another treatment that can be used is called Obagi. What we do is it’s a five-step process that people use every day on their skin to lighten those brown spots. It’s very effective.
BBL light energy absorbs targets such as fine, broken vessels, rosacea and brown spots that are caused by an overproduction of melanin.
An active tan from the sun or tanning beds is not appropriate with a BBL treatment.
It is recommended that a person does not have sun exposure in the area being treated for three weeks prior to the treatment with BBL. Self tanners must be faded from the skin for at least a week to 10 days before treatment.
The number of treatments vary from each individual. We often combine other procedures to to further enhance the outcome.
Your eyes will be covered by safety shields or glasses. You may briefly feel a “rubber band snap” sensation as the light is absorbed by the targeted area.
This is a noninvasive and gentle procedure with virtually no downtime. In most cases, you are able to return to work, apply makeup and resume activities immediately.
