Benefits
BBL HERO is revolutionary technology that upgrades traditional BBL delivering more power to create a more effective laser skin resurfacing treatment. It has a number of benefits including being more comfortable without the need for anesthesia, little or no downtime and a much faster treatment time. It is highly versatile allowing the ability to customize the procedure according to skin tone and the condition being addressed.
How Does It Work
The technology allows adjustment of the broadband waveform to deliver a more powerful treatment over larger surface areas in a shorter amount of time. The constant motion technique allows treatments of areas such as the legs, arms and back to be achieved safely and comfortably. The indications are the same as for BBL which is to reverse signs of premature aging and treating sun damage on chest, arms, legs and back.
Preparation and Aftercare
There is no need for significant pre-procedure preparation and aftercare remains the same as traditional BBL, primarily sun protection and skin moisturization.
Downtime
Since BBL HERO puts out more energy than BBL, there is minimal to no downtime after treatments. After the procedure, you can expect to have some redness and darkening of pigment in treated area immediately after the treatment. The redness should subside within an hour or two but the pigmented areas, however, will continue to darken and disappear in the following 7 to 14 days.
Frequency
Patients report that in three to four weeks after treatment, an overall improvement in skin clarity, tone and texture is noticed. It is recommended a minimum of two to three BBL HERO treatments every one to two months initially to reverse sun damage and boost collagen and elastin production and then maintenance two to three times per year.
