At Austin Laser Solutions, we are constantly staying up-to-date with the ever-evolving world of skincare and cosmetic procedures. Our BBL Hero, or BroadBand Light therapy, now stands alongside IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) as a top contender in light-based treatments. However, what distinguishes BBL Hero is its innovative design, which has taken it to a new level. This next-generation technology, embodied by BBL Hero, has transformed the landscape of skin rejuvenation. Let’s explore the extensive capabilities of BBL and its impact on anti-aging, skin revitalization, and skincare as a whole.
BBL vs. IPL: A New Generation of Light Therapy
BBL employs high-intensity, pulsed light, similar to IPL, but with distinctive design innovations that set it apart. These innovations result in enhanced precision and customization for treatments, making BBL a faster, more effective, and more comfortable alternative to traditional IPL.
The Anti-Aging Solution:
One of BBL’s most remarkable attributes is its ability to delay the appearance of aging skin. In a study conducted by renowned dermatologists Dr. Patrick Bitter, Jr, MD, FAAD, and Dr. Jason Pozner, MD, FAAD, it was found that regular annual or biannual BBL treatments over 5 to 11 years can reduce and delay the long-term signs of skin aging naturally. This includes improvements in photodamage, telangiectasias, and skin laxity.
Introducing The BBL Hero:
In 2020, Sciton unveiled the next generation of BBL technology with BBL Hero, which stands for High Energy Rapid Output. This revolutionary advancement has been hailed as the “holy grail in skin revitalization treatments” by clinicians and has earned its reputation as a game-changer in the field of cosmetic procedures.
Dr. Patrick Bitter, a prominent dermatologist known as the “Godfather of Light,” and founder of Advanced Aesthetic Dermatology in Los Gatos, CA, expresses his admiration for BBL Hero, stating that it is “the greatest advancement in IPL in the last 20 years.” Clients who have experienced BBL Hero treatments report remarkable improvements in the smoothness, clarity, and youthfulness of their skin after just one session.
Conditions Addressed by BBL Hero:
BBL Hero, recognized by NewBeauty Magazine as one of the Best Innovations in modern skincare, can effectively address a wide range of skin conditions, including acne, rosacea, pigmented lesions, photoaging, photodamage, sunspots, vascular lesions, and skin laxity. All of this can be achieved through a comfortable procedure with minimal downtime.
Enhanced Pulse Delivery for Superior Results:
BBL Hero’s design innovations have tackled historical challenges associated with IPL treatments. It allows our laser professionals to have complete control over settings, including joules, pulse width, cooling, and pulse speed, resulting in smoother and more consistent treatments. This innovation significantly reduces the risk of superficial burns and noticeable distinctions between treated and untreated areas.
Rapid, Full-Body Treatments:
BBL Hero boasts four times the speed, three times the peak power, and two times the cooling capacity of the original BBL, making it unrivaled in the realm of IPL devices. Its advanced features, such as a large spot size, high repetition rate, magnetic spot-size adapters, and change-on-the-fly smart filters, enable our laser professionals to efficiently treat large areas like the back, arms, and legs in a short amount of time.
Unprecedented Flexibility with Cut-off Filters:
BBL Hero’s change-on-the-fly smart filters allow for the treatment of various skin conditions with a single handpiece, eliminating the need for multiple handpieces for different wavelengths, which saves our clients time and money.
Variable-Sized Spot Adapters:
The device offers snap-on finesse adapters for small spots and hard-to-reach areas, ensuring individual pigmented and vascular lesions are targeted without affecting the surrounding skin, all while maintaining our clients comfort.
Powerful Cooling & Single-Degree Adjustability:
BBL Hero’s advanced cooling system maintains a consistent sapphire chill plate temperature within one degree of variability, even at maximum output. This not only enhances our clients comfort but also ensures consistent results during in-motion treatments.
SkinTyte for All Skin Types:
An exceptional feature of the BBL system is its continuous pulsing mode of light known as SkinTyte. This mode enhances the appearance of skin laxity on the face, neck, and body, even for our clients with skin types V and VI, which allows us to treat a wide range of skin types.
Our BBL Hero represents a significant leap forward in the world of skin rejuvenation. With its unparalleled technology and innovative design, it offers a comfortable, efficient, and effective solution for a wide range of skin concerns. As the field of cosmetic procedures continues to evolve, BBL Hero has undoubtedly earned its place as a pioneer in the pursuit of youthful and radiant skin.
