FOREVER CLEAR BBL
(FOR ACNE)
BBL is one of the treatments that we use at Brio Medical Cosmetic Clinic for acne treatment.
BBL is an advanced powerful IPL (intense Pulsed Light) device delivering light energy deep into your skin to help treat acne, leaving you with clear, healthy, radiant skin.
BBL uses a unique three-step process not available on other IPL's:
Step 1:
Skin is first treated with BLUE BBL light to reduce acne-causing bacteria and its source, deep down in the pores.
Step 2:
Skin is then treated with YELLOW BBL light to reduce the inflammation and acne-associated redness to give you healthy, luminous skin.
Step 3:
For added benefit, the skin is then treated with INFRA-RED light in rapid, gentle pulses to initiate the body's natural healthy process.
WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?
Most areas of your body can be treated. The most common areas where acne is found is on the face, neck and back.
HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?
Treatment time and total number of treatments needed vary from patient to patient.
IS THE TREATMENT UNCOMFORTABLE?
Generally, there is no need for topical anaesthetic. However, your clinician may choose to use it depending on his/her patient needs.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT?
You may experience some redness that should resolve within a few hours. Consult your doctor if it does not. Your treating doctor will provide you an aftercare plan to follow that will involve avoiding direct sun exposure and using sunscreen.
HOW MANY TREATMENTS NEEDED?
This depends on the case. To achieve optimal result usually a course of minimum six treatments every two weeks is recommended.
WHAT IS THE RECOVERY TIME?
There is typically no downtime. Most patients can wear make-up and resume normal activities immediately. Please follow you doctor's aftercare plan until skin is completely healed - typically one week after the treatment.
Notice: All treatments are subject to a referral from your GP and a prior consultation with us to ensure suitability of treatment.
