BBL HERO is proven and loved by physicians and their patients worldwide; patients of all nationalities are taking advantage of the latest innovation to turn back the clock on the appearance of aging skin.
How BBL HERO Works
BBL HERO stands for BroadBand light (BBL®) high energy rapid output (HERO) BroadBand® light, a type of IPL (intense pulsed light) device, differs from traditional lasers: lasers use a narrowly focused wavelength on the light spectrum, however, BBL uses a broad spectrum of light, to allow numerous wavelengths to enter the skin simultaneously. Not all IPL devices are the same, BBL’s innovations take this treatment to an entirely new level, to help trigger a skin healing response for collagen and elastin production, as well as improve many of the visible signs of aging. Sciton invented BBL HERO to allow medical practitioners to conduct treatments faster, safer, and better than ever before.

• Refrain from taking certain antibiotics and using topicals containing glycolic acids, alpha-hydroxy acids or any Retin-A products several days prior to each treatment. Accutane cannot have been taken within the last 6 months.
• We recommend that even though most people do not have a significant downtime after BBL™ that you not plan any major events for 2 to 3 days after your first BBL™ treatment.
