BBL Forever Young: What Is it and What Does it Treat?
BBL Forever Young, also known as Broadband Light Forever Young, is a unique skin treatment that harnesses the power of broadband light technology to enhance the skin’s appearance. This innovative approach targets a variety of skin issues, and when combined, it can significantly improve the look and feel of your skin.
BBL Forever Young is widely used because it delivers significant improvements without recovery time. It is a non-invasive procedure that can address multiple skin conditions associated with aging.
The process commonly treats age spots, sunspots, facial veins, and redness. It can also target acne-causing bacteria on the skin and treat broken capillaries, rosacea, and other vascular lesions that can occur in adults of all ages.
Broadband light technology smooths and uniformizes skin tone and texture, reducing the signs of aging. The treatment is not a wrinkle treatment; the light stimulates the body’s collagen production. As the body produces more collagen, it increases skin firmness and reduces the number of fine lines and wrinkles.
How Does it Feel to Have the Treatment?
Most people say that the treatment is mild in terms of discomfort. You might experience something that feels like light snaps of a rubber band against the skin. Some people describe this as a mild stinging or tingling sensation.
The handheld device used in the BBL Forever Young procedure features a cooling function that keeps your skin comfortable during light pulses. Sessions typically last less than 30 minutes, and the procedure is often called a “lunchtime treatment. “BBL Forever Young offers a convenient and comfortable way to improve your skin.
Are There Side Effects?
While the BBL Forever Young treatment is generally safe, like all procedures, there are potential risks and side effects to consider. However, the most common side effects are transient and require little to no downtime. After the treatment, the area may feel tender or red, similar to a mild sunburn. Swelling may occur, particularly around sensitive areas like the eyes, but this typically resolves within hours to a few days.
In rare cases, slight bruising may also occur when the treatment is done on vascular areas. After the treatment, your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight, increasing your risk of sunburn. To protect your skin, you must avoid direct sun exposure and use a high-SPF sunscreen.
How Long Do the Results of BBL Forever Young Last?
The length of time your results will last depends on several factors, including the following:
- The type and severity of the skin condition
- The number of treatments you have had
- Lifestyle factors
- General skincare
Generally, BBL treatments are long-lasting, especially when closely following your recommended maintenance schedule.
Your skin condition may require an initial treatment of two to four sessions spaced about a month apart. After this, you will see significant improvements in tone and texture as your body produces more collagen. We usually suggest a follow-up treatment once or twice a year to maintain the results.
Some people notice improvements in the days following the treatment, but optimal results typically develop over several weeks as the skin has the chance to heal and rejuvenate. Our skilled skin care specialists and medical professionals can best estimate what you can expect from the treatment based on the mentioned factors.
Can I Prolong the Results?
You can take several steps to prolong the results and extend the time between your maintenance follow-up visits. For example, while your skin is more sensitive immediately after treatment, sun exposure at any time can cause skin damage. It slows the body’s natural collagen production and increases the rate at which it removes collagen. Using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and protective clothes can help protect your skin from the sun’s rays.
A high-quality skincare routine can also improve results. Consider using products that contain antioxidants, retinoids, and peptides. We can recommend products tailored to your skin type and the results you want to maintain. Your internal environment also affects your skin. A healthy diet rich in antioxidants and adequate hydration can support skin health.
Avoiding smoking and reducing alcohol consumption will help maintain skin quality. Finally, we recommend avoiding other harsh skin treatments or chemical peels during the healing process, including at-home products, as they can affect your overall results.
