IPL BBL

What Is IPL/BBL?

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and BroadBand Light (BBL) are advanced light-based treatments that target pigment, redness, and sun damage. These non-invasive therapies use multiple wavelengths of light to correct discoloration and restore a brighter, more youthful complexion. These treatments are ideal for treating large body surface areas, such as the neck, chest, back, arms, and legs.

How IPL BBL can benefit you.

  • Preventative benefits when done regularly (“BBL Forever Young”)

  • Mild redness or darkening of spots for a few days, followed by possible roughness and peeling.
  • Most patients need 2–5 sessions for optimal results.
  • Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months keep skin radiant.

IPL/BBL can be combined with:

  • Fraxel or CO2 for deeper resurfacing
  • Ultrasound tissue tightening devices (e.g. Sofwave) to address skin laxity
  • Medical-grade skincare (vitamin C, retinoids) for ongoing pigment control

Is IPL/BBL safe for all skin types?

Best for lighter to medium skin tones; darker tones may require alternative treatments.

Are results permanent?

Treated spots fade, but new damage can occur with sun exposure.

Does it hurt?

Feels like quick “snaps” of light; well tolerated with external cooling.
