BBL fotofacial
At Infinity Skin Clinic, we address
various skin concerns individually.
Information
Our state-of-the-art BBL™ BroadBand Light device is one of the most effective ways to address pigmentation-related concerns.
BBL™ is the most powerful IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) system available in clinics today. It’s setting new standards for treating skin concerns related to general ageing, sun damage and an active lifestyle.
As the BBL™ system delivers light into the skin, it gently heats the upper layers. Once this heat is absorbed by the targeted skin cells, the regeneration process begins. The process restores a natural, healthy glow and a smoother, more youthful appearance over the long term.
The treatments are administered by our highly trained staff to produce great, long-term results safely and effectively.
BBL™ Treatment Capabilities
The BBL™ system is used to treat several common conditions that affect the skin, including:
- Age spots, freckles and pigmentation caused by sun exposure
- Excessive redness, broken veins and capillaries
- Enlarged pores, fine lines and poor skin texture
- Diffuse redness associated with conditions such as excessive redness
With Australia having such a harsh climate, it’s common for men and women to experience the negative effects that intense weather can have on the skin.
Thanks to systems such as this, there’s no need to live with sun-damaged skin any longer. Many patients wish they could’ve discovered this treatment sooner once they see the results it’s capable of producing. There is nothing like beautiful skin to make you look more youthful and give you that extra confidence.
BBL™ Treatment Sessions
BBL™ uses broad-spectrum laser energy to treat different areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, arms and hands. These are the areas where age spots, broken capillaries, lines and wrinkles most often appear, issues that can all be addressed with BBL™.
BBL™ treatments are quick and don’t require a topical anaesthetic due to the minimal discomfort. Sessions can easily slot into your lunch break and you are free to return to work immediately after the treatment.
You may notice the improvement in pigmentation and skin tone and texture after just one session however two to three treatments*, performed at two-to-three-week intervals will produce best results. After your first bbl fotofacial session, you can expect to see a youthful glow.
As the treatment takes effect in the weeks that follow, you will also see an even skin tone, reduced pore size and a decrease in spots and discolouration.
To further enhance your long-term results, we will also provide you with a personalised medical grade skincare regime.
In order to obtain further textural improvement, patients should also consider the HALO laser treatment or Dualmode Fractional Laser. The choice of treatment modality is determined depending on the outcomes you seek.
BBL FOTOFACIAL – Q & A:
The most important step is to stay out of direct sunlight and avoid tanning in the weeks leading up to your session – tanned skin cannot be treated. During your first consultation at Infinity Skin, we will also explain which medications and supplements you should refrain from using.
After each session, mild redness can be expected, almost as if your skin is slightly sunburned. This redness disappears within a few hours and can be covered with mineral makeup if need be. After a few days, you will see a noticeable improvement in your skin’s appearance, as well as a reduction in any spots, blemishes and broken capillaries. It’s important to keep your skin protected by wearing sunscreen on a daily basis in between your sessions.
In some very rare cases, treatment can cause hypopigmentation (skin lightening) or hyperpigmentation (skin darkening). Your skin therapist will take you through all the potential risks and side effects during your consultation. However, there is very little to worry about.
This is different for everyone and is dependent on particular skin concerns, as well as skin quality. A treatment plan will be discussed during your consultation at Infinity Skin.
