  • Treatment typically lasts 30-45 minutes, depending on the area.

After Treatment

  • You may experience slight redness or warmth, similar to a mild sunburn, for a few hours.
  • Pigmented spots may darken temporarily, then flake off naturally over the following days.
  • Most patients resume normal activities immediately and may apply makeup to conceal any redness.

The Technology of Timeless Beauty

What concerns can BBL Laser address?

BBL Laser is a versatile, non-invasive treatment designed to target a wide range of skin concerns. It effectively treats sun damage, sunspots, freckles, and age spots, helping to restore a more even and radiant complexion. BBL also reduces redness and rosacea, along with broken capillaries and vascular lesions, to create a smoother, more balanced skin tone.

In addition to correcting pigmentation and redness, BBL addresses fine lines and wrinkles, improving overall skin texture and promoting collagen production for a firmer, more youthful appearance. It can refine enlarged pores, smooth uneven skin tone and texture, and improve mild skin laxity and dullness. BBL is an ideal solution for both men and women seeking to rejuvenate their skin and reduce visible imperfections, revealing a clearer, smoother, and more youthful complexion.
