What IS
a BBL?
A cosmetic skin treatment that uses Broadband Light (BBL) technology to address various skin concerns and improve skin appearance. BBL is a type of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy that emits multiple wavelengths of light to target specific skin issues.
During a BBL photofacial, a handheld device is used to deliver controlled bursts of light energy to the skin's surface. The light energy penetrates the skin and is absorbed by specific target areas, such as melanin (for pigmentation issues like sunspots or age spots) or blood vessels (for redness or vascular conditions).

Let's be real.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The treatment is non-invasive and usually requires little to no downtime, making it popular for those seeking to rejuvenate their skin without the need for more aggressive procedures.
- Sunspots and age spots
- Redness and rosacea
- Uneven skin texture
- Small facial veins (telangiectasias)
- Acne or acne scarring (mild to moderate cases)
- Uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation
THE FACTS
For most people, an initial series of 3 to 5 treatments spaced approximately 3 to 4 weeks apart is common. After completing the initial series, some individuals may benefit from maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months, depending on their skin's response and ongoing concerns.
The duration of a BBL (Broadband Light) photofacial treatment can vary depending on the size of the treated area, the specific skin concerns being addressed, and the settings used by the healthcare professional. Typically, a BBL photofacial session lasts one hour.
Best results from the BBL Laser are seen after three consecutive treatments.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR APPOINTMENT:
Before your BBL, the skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, dirt, or oils. You will be provided with protective eyewear to shield your eyes from the bright light during the procedure. A cooling gel is applied to the treatment area to help enhance the light's penetration and protect the skin's surface. The handheld BBL device is used to deliver bursts of light to the skin. The provider will move the device over the treatment area, targeting specific concerns. After the treatment, the cooling gel is removed, and the skin is usually moisturized and protected with sunscreen.
HOW MUCH DOWNTIME SHOULD YOU PLAN FOR?
BBL (Broadband Light) photofacial is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure, and one of its key benefits is that it generally requires little to no downtime. Most individuals can resume their regular activities immediately after the treatment. This makes it a convenient option for people with busy schedules or those who prefer to avoid more invasive procedures with extended recovery times.
After a BBL photofacial session, you might experience some mild redness and warmth in the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. However, these side effects typically subside within a few hours to a day after the treatment. You will notice darkening of pigmented areas and the appearance of small spots, which will flake off as part of the skin's natural exfoliation process, leaving the skin more even-complected and radiant! To reduce swelling that can occur from heat within the tissues clogging lymphatic drainage (specifically around the eyes), we instruct all BBL patients to take Pepcid and Allegra/Claritin/Zyrtec the day of the procedure and the next 3 days after.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR TREATMENT:
Preparing for a BBL (Broadband Light) photofacial treatment is relatively straightforward and involves a few essential steps to ensure a successful and comfortable experience. Firstly, it is crucial to schedule a consultation with one of our qualified healthcare professionals. During this consultation, the provider will assess your skin, discuss your concerns and goals, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for the treatment.
Before the actual BBL photofacial session, it's essential to avoid excessive sun exposure, tanning beds, and selfless tanner for at least two weeks. Sunburned or heavily tanned skin can be more sensitive to the light energy used in the procedure, potentially increasing the risk of adverse reactions. Therefore, using broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF and wearing protective clothing when outdoors is highly recommended.
On the day of the treatment, it is advisable to arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. The healthcare professional will cleanse your skin thoroughly before the procedure to ensure optimal light penetration.
WHEN WILL YOU SEE RESULTS?
The timing for seeing results from a BBL (Broadband Light) photofacial can vary depending on individual skin concerns, the treatment plan, and the skin's response to the procedure. In some cases, you may notice improvements shortly after the first session, while in others, it may take a few weeks to see noticeable changes.
For issues related to skin tone and pigmentation, such as sunspots or age spots, you may start to see improvements within a week or two after the treatment. The treated areas might appear darker initially, but this is a normal reaction and often referred to as "coffee ground" pigmentation. Over the following days and weeks, these darker areas should gradually slough off, revealing clearer and more even-toned skin.
For concerns like redness or vascular issues, such as small facial veins or rosacea, results may become visible after a few weeks. The BBL treatment helps to reduce the appearance of redness and promote a more even skin tone over time.
It's essential to note that BBL photofacial treatments are often done in a series, typically spaced 4-6 weeks apart. So, the full results may not be fully evident until the completion of the recommended series of treatments. In some cases, improvements continue to develop even after the treatments are completed, as collagen production is stimulated, leading to further enhancements in skin texture and appearance.

The office is an absolute vibe and I can’t imagine anyone ever regretting allowing them to help you achieve your goals.
I have been coming to Faces in Bloom for approximately a year and a half and have received services from Miranda, Sarah, and Forrest. I even drive 2 hours from Eugene, OR because of how amazing they are. I’ve never had a less than amazing experience at Faces in Bloom and all of the staff are absolutely wonderful. Comparing the pictures from my first visit to the pictures from my most recent visit, you wouldn’t even believe it’s the same person. I look amazing! Their monthly specials and VIP membership have helped me rejuvenate my self-confidence and allowed me to feel beautiful and look younger than ever at nearly 40 years old. If you’ve been on the fence about receiving services at Faces in Bloom, this is your sign to go ahead and make an appointment. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made in terms of self-care.

If I could give 10 stars I would. From the moment you walk in, till the moment you leave; it’s the best customer/patient care ever, hands downs.
Forrest is my favorite, he always makes me feel so calm, and relaxed and is just the nicest human. He is so good, I don’t ever feel my botox shots. The man has skills! Don’t get me wrong all the staff are amazing. I started with Forrest and have stuck ever since.

I cannot speak highly enough about the outstanding team at Faces In Bloom! From the moment I stepped foot in their establishment, I felt welcomed by their warm and talented staff.
What's more, their sense of humor added an element of fun to my appointments. Both Sarah and Miranda are undoubtedly masters of their craft - they performed my Botox and filler treatments with the utmost skill and precision. I also treated myself to a facial with Anna, which was an absolute treat. If you're hesitant about trying out any treatments, don't hesitate to give Faces in Bloom a chance. The staff operates with transparency and authenticity, ensuring that you walk out of their establishment feeling like a better version of yourself. I wholeheartedly recommend Faces in Bloom, you won't be disappointed!
