Regular Sciton BBL treatment also keeps skin healthy and slows the visible sign of ageing.

    Sciton BBL is an advanced skin treatment with the following benefits:

    Clearing pigmentation

    Reducing facial redness

    Rejuvenation photofacials

    Treatment of rosacea

    Treatment of acne

  • Each session lasts from a haff hour to an hour. The length of time depends on the type of treatment and the size of the area.

    It is possible to see a difference after one treatment, but a series of treatments is usually required. Treatment plans depend on the type of skin problem and how much improvement the patient wants. The provider may combine the Sciton BBL treatments with other therapies to enhance any improvements given by the BBL.

    A course of 3 to 6 treatments is generally initially needed to correct the skin from pigmentation and redness. Each treatment is given once every 4 weeks.

  • During the procedure, the patient is fitted with safety glasses to protect their eyes. As the handpiece is passed over the skin, they may feel a sensation like a rubber band being snapped against the skin. There is no lingering discomfort afterwards.

    This is discussed during the consultation.

  • For most individuals, there is minimal downtime, and you can apply make-up and sunblock immediately and get on with day-to-day activities.

    However, the patient will be given instructions for their aftercare, and it’s important that the instructions be followed. For example, the patient should avoid the sun for a period of days and use a powerful sunscreen if they must go outdoors. A sunscreen with SPF of 30 or even higher is recommended.

  • BBL-treated skin appears healthier and more youthful than untreated skin. BBL-treated skin continues to appear healthier and more youthful in those people that are getting regular BBL treatments.
