Broad Band Light (BBL) & Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

Increasingly more patients demand fast, effective treatments aimed at restoring their skins’ natural beauty, eliminate blemishes and give them a healthier, fresher look.

A light like no other, the innovative BBL- BroadBand Light module extends the versatility of the PROFILE Laser System with advanced flashlamp technology enables Renew Medspa to deliver outstanding results for our patients.

BBL technology harnesses the power of pulsed light to provide extraordinary results in photo rejuvenation therapy. The revolutionary Sciton Laser allows for interchangeable wavelength filters, providing precise and customized treatment for each patient.

During treatment, Broadband Light energy gently heats the upper layers of skin. The treated areas absorb the heat, which stimulates new collagen production and gives the skin a firmer, smoother appearance. Simultaneously, photo-thermal energy dramatically reduces redness, age spots, freckles and many other types of unwanted pigmentation.

Following treatment, the affected area may appear flushed for several hours. Pigmented areas will darken after treatment and then begin to fade and eventually flake off. The result… a smoother brighter complexion with smaller pores, fewer lines and more even skin tone.

Who Should  Consider BBL Photo Rejuvenation?
Photo Rejuvenation with Broadband Light can be performed on anyone wanting to improve the appearance of pigmented skin while simultaneously smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment can be performed on all areas of the body with significant improvement, however the most commonly treated areas are the face, neck, back of hands, chest and shoulders.

Most BBL patients experience slight to moderate redness the first day, and a temporary darkness in pigmentation and general flakiness for up to two weeks.

What Will Happen During The Treatment?
Your eyes will be protected with safety shields or glasses. You may briefly feel a worming of the skin, or a rubber band snap like sensation, as the light is absorbed by the targeted areas. Your procedure may take a few minutes to half an hour depending on the size of the area to be treated and the type and depth of the procedure performed. Your physician will discuss all the options with you.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Depending upon lesions treated anywhere from 2 to 5 treatments will produce the desired results.

How Long Will It take To Recover?
This minimally invasive and gentle procedure can be performed during lunch-time with virtually no down-time.

What Type Of Aftercare Does BBL Photo Rejuvenation Require?
There is minimal care following your BBL treatment. Certain skin care products may be recommended to help minimize redness and speed the healing process. The treated area will be sensitive to UV light and will need to be shaded from direct sun exposure until it has fully healed. A sunscreen (30 SPF or greater) should be applied daily to help prevent recurrence of undesired pigmentation and further photodamage.
