Summer can affect our skin in a variety of ways; sun exposure, cold temperatures, and heavy winds can leave our skin dry, damaged, or scarred. Luckily, there are a few options to help improve the health and look of our skin. One of our favorite and most popular treatments we offer is the Forever Young BBL Light therapy in Rochester, NY.
What is light therapy in Rochester, NY?
Forever Young BBL is an innovative technology that uses the world’s most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) device on the market. Also called Broad Band Light (BBL), this technology delivers light energy to heat the area of concern. The light energy is absorbed by the targeted areas to stimulating changes in skin tone, texture, elasticity, and pigmentation. This leads to visible, long-lasting improvement after just one treatment.
What can light therapy treat?
Envision Aesthetics administers light therapy to our guests to treat a variety of skin concerns, including:
Rosacea and Redness • Sun Spots • Age Spots • Wrinkles • Acne • Sagging Skin • Fine lines
We can use the Forever Young BBL device on the face, neck, chest, arms, hands, and anywhere else on the body with age spots or sun damage.
Other uses for BBL light therapy
At Envision Aesthetics, we also proudly offer BBL for hair reduction and Forever Clear BBL for acne-specific treatment.
Does Forever Young BBL hurt?
While you may feel a slight warming sensation, the Forever Young BBL is uniquely created to treat skin damage using gentle light therapy. You may see or feel your skin redden after treatment. Most of our patients experience very little recovery time and are back to their daily routine almost immediately. Many of our patients opt to get complementary procedures during the same office visit, such as the Kybella treatment or BOTOX or filler injections.
How long does it take to recover?
The good news is that light therapy is a noninvasive treatment with a quick recovery time. On average, patient downtime time ranges from zero to five days.
This recovery time varies for different patients depending on skin sensitivity, size of area treated, and the severity of treatment.
