What Is a BBL Photofacial Treatment?

Nurse Jacklyn, recognized as a leading Canadian key opinion leader and national educator for Sciton Lasers, is a seasoned expert in her field with over 15 years of experience with BBL. 

BBL (broad band light), otherwise known as IPL (Intense pulsed light), delivers controlled light into the skin, specifically targeting signs of aging and sun damage, resulting in a more youthful and clear complexion. According to a Stanford University study, patients reported high satisfaction with BBL for improving skin appearance.

The Benefits You Can Expect

BBL has been clinically proven to reduce brown spots, age spots, and freckles caused by sun exposure. It helps calm redness, rosacea, and broken capillaries, while refining skin tone and texture for a clearer, brighter complexion. Many patients notice a more even, luminous appearance within days, while ongoing treatments help maintain firmness and resilience as the skin continues to renew itself from within.

According to a study published in PubMed Central, just three BBL sessions produced visible improvements in wrinkles and pigmentation, with tissue samples showing stronger collagen and evidence of true skin repair.

Which Skin Conditions Can Be Treated with BBL?

Nurse Jacklyn treats a variety of skin conditions, including

  • Sun Damage, Age spots, brown spots
  • Freckles
  • Redness, Rosacea
  • Small facial or nasal vessels, broken capillaries
  • Active Acne or PIH caused by Acne
  • Pore size

When combined with ClearV Vascular Laser, a high-energy, broad-spectrum light therapy, BBL becomes the complete vascular solution for complex conditions such as rosacea, broken capillaries, spider veins, vascular lesions, skin discoloration, and more.

Frequently asked questions

1What Takes Place During the Procedure?
Initially, a cooling gel is applied to the treatment area. Following this, a chilled applicator is placed on the skin to administer the light therapy. A sunscreen is applied to the skin after the procedure.
2Are BBL Treatments Uncomfortable?
Not typically, though you may experience some discomfort in more sensitive areas. Nurse Jacklyn may apply a topical anesthetic cream to the skin for 30 minutes prior to the treatment if necessary.
3Is there Downtime with a BBL treatment?
No, in most cases. Makeup can usually be applied immediately, allowing you to resume your regular routine. Your skin may appear slightly red and blotchy after the treatment.
4How many BBL’s do I need?
Most patients begin with a series of three to four treatments, spaced about one month apart, to achieve optimal results. Once skin health is restored, a maintenance treatment, once or twice a year, helps protect and preserve those results.
5What areas can you treat with BBL?
Nurse Jacklyn commonly treats the face, neck, chest, back, arms and hands with BBL or IPL. The neck and chest often show signs of sun damage that can benefit from a BBL treatment.
