Wrinkles creep up on us and can be frustrating to see in the mirror. You feel young inside and want that to be reflected in the face everyone else sees, too. If you are looking for a way to treat wrinkles effectively for the long term, consider BBL treatments.

How does BBL reduce wrinkles?

In a nutshell, BBL utilizes infrared light energy to heat soft tissue in the deeper layers of the skin, which in turns stimulates collagen and natural skin tightening. The skin is resurfaced, creating an even tone, balanced complexion, and fewer wrinkles.

BBL is very effective and is also used to treat a number of other skin concerns, such as age spots, sun damage, redness, broken facial vessels and dull skin, to name a few.

What is BBL?

You may have heard of this treatment already as a solution for acne scarring and other facial skin concerns, but you might wonder what the technology of the device is exactly. BBL is short for broadband light. It’s a special type of light, which actually isn’t a laser, that delivers quick, intense pulses of light. The light is temperature controlled and penetrates your skin with heat to cause micro damage to the deeper layers of skin, while being completely harmless to the outer layers of the skin and other tissues.

Once the light stimulates it, your body will work to repair the damage by generating collagen, which is the basic building block of new, wrinkle-free skin. Ultimately this reduces the appearance of the wrinkles. It can be used on the face, neck, chest, arms and hands.

What is the difference between IPL and BBL?

BBL treatments

IPL light waves also gently heat the deeper layers of skin, stimulating collagen production. This reduces the appearance of fine lines and scars. BBL is a more advanced version of IPL therapy, both in terms of accuracy and targeting specific skin conditions for treatment: Skin tone and texture.

How does a BBL look when you're old?

BBL treatments

BBL 10 years later is likely to show the same perky and curvaceous shape of your buttocks as you had right after the surgery. BBL is not designed to address loose skin, so if you develop skin laxity issues, you may want to have a touch-up surgery later on.
