BBL® Hero™ (BroadBand Light)

Spending time outdoors is a favorite pastime in Texas, but the toll the sun takes on your skin’s complexion is often an unfortunate side effect. The resulting age spots and other skin conditions associated with aging can be effectively treated with BBL Hero’s powerful broadband light technology at our Austin, Texas, practice with minimal downtime.

BBL Hero Before and After Photos

What Is BroadBand Light?

BBL uses advanced intense pulsed light (IPL) technology, delivering light energy that harmlessly penetrates the skin’s surface and stimulates the body’s natural healing process in the deeper layers of skin. The treatment addresses various issues associated with aging and active lifestyles, including brown spots, redness, small facial veins, and rosacea. It can also minimize the appearance of acne scars.  

Often called a photofacial, the FDA-cleared BBL technology is often used to treat areas most likely to be affected by sun exposure, such as the face, neck, arms, and chest.  

How Does BBL Hero Work?  

Unlike laser skin treatments that target treatment areas with precision, broadband light treats a wider area of skin. When the tissue absorbs the heat generated by the pulses of light energy, the skin responds by generating new collagen. Collagen is a protein and a fundamental element of smooth, firm skin that looks youthful. The treatment also eliminates blood vessels responsible for the skin’s discolored appearance and reduces the melanin that causes pigmented lesions.  

When combined with HALO® laser skin resurfacing treatments, BBL Hero creates even more dramatic results.

Minimize Discomfort With Pro-Nox™ 

If you’re worried about pain during laser skin treatments, Pro-Nox is a self-administered, inhaled pain reliever similar to “laughing gas.” It relieves stress, anxiety, and overall discomfort by safely inducing a more relaxed and euphoric state during the treatment and then wears off quickly—within 10 to 15 minutes. You can even drive yourself home after the BBL Hero procedure.  

Take the Next Step 

An active lifestyle can accelerate the skin’s aging, but you can reverse those effects with laser skin treatments at our Austin, Round Rock, or West Lake Hills locations. Request a consultation using the online form to meet with one of our skincare specialists or call us at (512) 244-1439 to schedule an appointment.
