BBL® HERO™ treats age spots (liver spots), sun damage, redness, broken facial vessels, wrinkles and dull skin. these conditions, as well as the effects of rosacea. It can also reduce the appearance of freckles and birthmarks. The treatment can be performed on all body areas, such as the face, neck, chest, arms and hands.
What is the difference between BBL® and BBL® HERO™?
BroadBand Light (BBL), now with HERO, delivers 4x the speed, 3x the peak power, and 2x the cooling as the original BBL. It quickly treats large areas, such as the back, legs, and arms in minutes with visible, lasting results.
What should I expect with a BBL® Hero™ Treatment?
You should feel minimal to no discomfort during treatment as your physician gently glides the BBL® HERO™ handpiece across the skin. A sapphire on the end of the device will keep the skin cool and comfortable. After treatment, most patients will continue to feel warm for an additional 30 to 60 minutes. Patients receiving BBL® HERO™ treatments can expect visible results in just 1 to 2 treatments, while less effective IPL technology often requires 5 to 6 treatments to show similar results.
What is the recovery after a BBL®HERO™ treatment?
There is no downtime with BBL. The patient can reapply their makeup and go about their daily tasks shortly after the session. However, the patient will be given instructions for their aftercare, and it is important that the instructions be followed closely. For example, the patient should avoid the sun for a period of several days and use a powerful sunscreen if they must go outdoors. A sunscreen with SPF of 30 or higher is imperative.
