Skin rejuvenation at a cellular level.
BBL is the patented name of an advanced light energy-based technology. The BBL HERO is the latest version of this system that allows faster treatments with less downtime and has now made treatments for the entire body possible. BBL and BBL HERO deliver light therapy in specific bands which allows numerous wavelengths of light to simultaneously treat multiple areas within the skin. By adjusting the treatment parameters, the BBL and BBL HERO, can be tailored to treat each individual skin’s condition to achieve the desired result. BBL and BBL HERO treatments can target and remove the visible signs of ageing and sun damaged skin, as well as treat skin conditions, such as Rosacea and Acne. Regular treatments can also stimulate the skin to rejuvenate itself and maintain skin health.
From our range of skin rejuvenation options, for many the BBL is the best choice for first getting your skin looking great and then secondly maintaining those results in the long term. At Collins Cosmetic Clinic we only have qualified, experienced and meticulously trained staff. We value our reputation built over 20 years of safe and effective long term results.
The BBL module uses Dual flash lamp technology, interchangeable Smart Filters and precision thermoelectric cooling. The broad range of wavelengths in the BBL allows targeted treatment for many skin conditions. A USA study out of Stanford University found BBL treatments can result in increased skin elasticity, more ordered and uniform collagen deposition and improvements in fine wrinkles, pigmentation and vascular lesions. At the cellular level improvements in the gene expression profile have also been demonstrated after BBL treatment.
Any area of your body can be treated. The most common areas are those most exposed to the damaging effects of sunlight. The most popular treatments are for the face, neck, back of the hands and chest. BBL has the benefits of:
No changes to your normal routine are necessary, except to limit sun exposure both before and immediately after treatment. Any sunscreen or makeup will need to be removed before treatment.
There is no downtime after this treatment. Patients may experience some redness that should resolve within a few hours to a day. For some pigmented lesions, you will see a darkening of the treated area followed by fading and flaking off over several days. After the initial healing phase, you should begin to appreciate an improvement in skin tone and quality. In most cases you can apply mineral based makeup immediately after treatment if required.
Before and after images are presented purely as a reference point of the results that can be achieved. Everyone is unique and outcomes will vary and realistic expectations need to be discussed on a case by case basis.
