How BBL™ BroadBand Light Can Turn Back the Clock on Your Skin

Although you may feel as though you’re still in your twenties, time eventually takes a visible toll on your skin. As you age, your skin naturally begins to show the effects of getting older. These effects can include wrinkles, fine lines, and loss of elasticity. Aging can also worsen the appearance of skin damage like sun spots and scars. Treatment that utilizes BroadBand Light (BBL) can reverse the effects of aging and rejuvenate your skin, allowing you to look as young as you feel.

What Is BroadBand Light?

BroadBand Light is a cosmetic procedure that is non-invasive and non-ablative. It uses pulsed broadband light and photo-thermal energy on the skin to minimize the look of wrinkles and fine lines. BBL therapy also refreshes the skin while addressing common concerns such as sun spots, uneven skin tone, and texture issues. The treatment aims to rejuvenate the skin, delay the effects of aging, and correct damage.

Studies performed by the Stanford University School of Medicine found that BBL™ treatments, also known as BroadBand Light treatments, can have a short-term and long-term effect on the aging process. The study goes on to say that according to their research, this form of therapy actually changes the way that your DNA works. It makes your skin cells act as if they were younger.

DNA is the building block of life. DNA tells all your cells what type of cell it is going to be, how it will function and how frequently it will be replaced. Unfortunately, with time, your DNA starts to break down. Things like the environment and the natural aging process can damage your DNA. As a result, your cells act in a less efficient manner. They go from acting like young, vibrant cells to behaving like older cells.

BBL™ treatments have been shown to stimulate your cells back to a younger state. They do this by rejuvenating your genes and the genetic code in your DNA. As a result, the genetic code of your skin cells is reset, and you are left with younger-looking skin.

What Does BBL Treat?

BroadBand Light can address a variety of skin problems. If you are concerned with fine lines or wrinkles, BBL treatment can combat the effects of aging and actually reverse them. It targets the tissue under the superficial layer of skin, stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin cells. BBL treatment offers a more youthful appearance without the typical side effects or downtime of other cosmetic procedures.

Acne is another common problem that most people experience. Even if you no longer suffer from it, you might be left with unsightly scars or larger pores that often suffer from blackheads. BBL can directly target your pores to attack the bacteria causing acne while also easing redness and inflammation on your skin.

Other skin concerns BBL can treat include rosacea, birthmarks, freckles, age spots, vascular lesions, and uneven skin tone.

How Does BBL Work?

The BBL treatment uses specific wavelengths of light to target pigments and colors in your skin that may be contributing to each specific skin concern. It does this by gently heating up the surface and underlying layers of your skin. The heat helps eliminate unwanted pigmentation while at the same time stimulating collagen production to aid in skin regeneration.

After a full series of treatments, you can achieve clearer, smoother, and younger-looking skin.

BBL can be used with other light treatments, allowing you to address a number of skin issues all at one time.
