Photo Rejuvenation with the BBL broadband light allows for the treatment of skin conditions such as age and sun spots, small veins, and rosacea. BBL technology uses the power of pulsed light by selecting the appropriate wavelength or filter. The light energy heats up the upper layers of the skin and stimulates new cell growth.
Photo rejuvenation improves skin tone and texture, and helps with visible signs of aging. Any area of the body can be treated with photo rejuvenation, but the most popular areas treated are the face, neck, chest, and hands. Photo rejuvenation is usually done in a series of 3 to 5 treatments about 2 to 4 weeks apart.
This is a non-invasive treatment with no down-time. During the treatment you may feel a rubber band snap as the light is absorbed into the skin. The procedure takes about 15 to 45 min. depending on the size of the area being treated. Usually a patient can leave the treatment, apply makeup, and return to work. One may experience some mild redness after the treatment that usually resolves quickly and temporary darkening of sun spots. Within 7 to 10 days the darkening will flake and fade leaving skin tone more even. Pores will also appear smaller and skin smoother.
