The Process

Your Treatment Journey

Before

Skin assessment and consultation. Avoid sun exposure and self-tan for 2 weeks prior. Discontinue retinoids 5–7 days before.

During

Protective eyewear is applied. The BBL handpiece delivers precise light pulses to the skin. Most patients feel a warm snapping sensation. Treatment takes 20–45 minutes depending on the area.

After

Treated pigmentation darkens initially before flaking off over 7–14 days. Mild redness may last a few hours. Strict sun protection is essential.
