When you hear the acronym BBL, what phrase comes to mind?
For most, it's the "Brazilian Butt Lift" - the cosmetic surgical procedure that involves liposuction to remove excess fat from specific areas of the body, which is then purified and injected into the buttocks to enhance their size and shape! Well, we aren't talking about that type of BBL! We are talking about the original BBL - Broad Band Laser!
What Does a Broad Band Laser Treatment Do?
Broadband Laser (BBL) treatments represent a groundbreaking approach in cosmetic skincare. Utilising advanced light technology, BBL effectively targets skin imperfections, such as age spots, sun damage, and visible signs of aging. This non-invasive method rejuvenates the skin, enhancing its overall texture and appearance.
What Results Can I Expect from a BBL?
Patients undergoing BBL treatments can anticipate noticeable skin tone and consistency improvement. The outcome is a more youthful and vibrant complexion with reductions in skin issues like pigmentation, rosacea, and signs of aging.
How Does BBL Work?
BBL utilises a spectrum of light wavelengths that penetrate the skin at various depths. This light energy gently heats the upper layers of the skin, stimulating skin cells to regenerate. This process aids in restoring the skin to its natural beauty, making it clearer, smoother, and more vibrant.
What Areas of the Body Can Be Treated with BBL?
BBL is versatile, treating several areas of the body. Commonly treated areas include the face, neck, hands, and chest. This adaptability makes BBL an excellent choice for comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
What Can I Expect During My Broad Band Laser Treatment? Is It Painful?
During a BBL session, patients might experience a mild warming sensation akin to a light snap of a rubber band against the skin. However, discomfort is minimal. At Beauty by Doctor (BBD), located in Bondi Junction, patient comfort is our priority, and we ensure a pleasant experience throughout the treatment.
How Long Does a Broad Band Laser Take?
A typical BBL session lasts about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. This makes it an ideal "lunchtime procedure" for many of our clients in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs.
What Is the Downtime After a Broad Band Laser Session, and What Kind of Aftercare Is Required?
Post-treatment, there is minimal downtime. Patients may return to their normal activities almost immediately. Mild redness or swelling may occur, subsiding within a few hours to a day. Following aftercare instructions, including using sunscreen and gentle skincare products, is crucial for optimal results.
How Many BBL Treatments Will I Need?
The number of treatments varies per individual, depending on skin condition and desired outcomes. Typically, 2-5 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, are recommended for best results. A maintenance session is then recommended every six weeks.
How Long After a BBL Treatment Will I See Results?
Some improvements may be noticeable immediately post-treatment, with more significant results appearing gradually over the following weeks, as the skin rejuvenates.
How Long Do the Results Last?
Results from BBL treatments can be long-lasting, especially with proper skincare and occasional maintenance sessions.
What Is the Typical Cost of a BBL Treatment?
The cost of BBL treatments varies based on the area treated and the number of sessions required. At BBD, we provide personalised consultations to discuss treatment plans and pricing.
