BBL stands for BroadBand Light, which is a more advanced form of IPL. BBL has shown to actually change the gene expression of skin to resemble that of younger genes. BBL transforms skin cells at a molecular level, creating the appearance of more youthful skin!
Before your IPL photofacial at LIV Wellness Lounge in LaSalle, you'll have a complimentary consultation. We'll assess your skin with VISIA Skin Analysis and discuss your concerns. If BBL Hero is right for you, we'll create a personalized treatment plan.
We recommend 2 to 4 treatments for optimal results. We’ll prep your skin, provide protective eyewear, and use the BBL Hero handpiece set to a specific wavelength for your skin. Treatment time varies by area, which can include the face, neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, and back.
One of the major benefits of BBL Hero is there is virtually no downtime! You can get right back to your day after your provider gives you aftercare instructions. We space out IPL photofacial treatments 2 to 4 weeks apart.
BBL Hero is a culmination of years of advancements, research, and improvements on the original BBL technology. BBL Hero works at 4x the speed, 3x the power, and 2x cooling capacity (for better comfort). Faster treatment time makes this treatment easier to work into your schedule. Multiple wavelength settings allow us to treat a wider variety of conditions, from acne to unwanted body hair!
We can determine how many BBL treatments you need to achieve your goals with a complimentary skin consultation with a LIV Wellness Lounge specialist. We’ll learn about your concerns, desired results, and skin condition to recommend the amount of treatments necessary.
Most clients find this treatment very tolerable. The system uses CoolComfort™ technology to maintain comfort and optimal temperatures.
