Reverse Signs of Aging
If you are looking to turn back the clock and reverse visible signs of aging, Forever Young BBL™ by Sciton may be the skin rejuvenation treatment for you. Forever Young BBL™ is a superior technology that uses broadband light to slow down and reverse signs of aging.
At West Michigan Plastic Surgery we use Forever Young BBL™ for patients in Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids, looking for a skin rejuvenation treatment that will counter the side-effects of aging.
Forever Young BBL™ is a safe, versatile skin rejuvenation that is effective for treating hyperpigmentation, broken capillaries, rosacea, freckles, sun damage, and more. BBL stands for broadband light, which is a pulsed-light technology developed by Sciton that is superior to intense pulsed light therapy.
How Does Forever Young BBL™ Work?
Skin Rejuvenation
The light energy from the Forever Young BBL™ heats the upper layers of the skin. The heat is absorbed by the damaged skin cells, and this triggers cell regeneration. When this happens, pigmented lesions such as freckles and sunspots are gradually pushed to the surface. They are then broken up into tiny fragments that naturally exfoliate and disappear or lighten.
Forever Young BBL™ also treats diffuse redness in the skin and broken capillaries. The new skin cells that emerge after the regeneration process are clearer, brighter, and more youthful.
Anti-Aging
In addition to its skin rejuvenation benefits, Forever Young BBL™ can also turn back the clock on aging skin, by influencing the gene expression of skin cells. In a clinical study conducted by Stanford University, Forever Young BBL™ was shown to alter the gene expression of older cells to make them function like young cells. Compelling evidence from the study supports the fact that regular use of Forever Young BBL™ treatment causes older skin to become more youthful.
Forever Young BBL™ is a skin rejuvenation treatment with age-defying benefits. It uses infrared invisible light technology to treat the top layers of skin to improve complexion issues. It also works below the skin at the molecular level.
Am I A Good Candidate For Forever Young BBL™ Treatment?
If you are starting to see visible signs of aging or have experienced sun damage, you may be a good candidate for Forever Young BBL™. The ideal way to find out if BBL is right for you is to undergo a Visia photo skin analysis.
How Long Does A Typical Treatment Take?
A typical Forever Young BBL™ skin rejuvenation treatment takes 30-45 minutes depending on the area being treated.
What Results Will I See?
After a series of Forever Young BBL™ skin rejuvenation treatments, the skin will look smoother, clearer, and brighter.
Is There Any Downtime?
There is no downtime after Forever Young BBL™, so you can resume regular activities immediately after the procedure. You may experience some mild redness but this typically resolves within a few hours.
When treating hyperpigmentation the pigmented lesions will initially darken and then start to flake off within 5-7 days. For vascular lesions, some darkening may also occur within the first few days of treatment, but they will soon lighten as the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body.
