Forever Young BBL

Forever Young BBL uses broadband light to break up excess pigmentation and encourage collagen production, creating younger-looking and more evenly colored skin.

What does Forever Young BBL treat?

Forever Young BBL is effective for treating red and brown pigmentation concerns, including:

  • Sunspots
  • Age spots
  • Freckles
  • Sun damage
  • Redness or rosacea
  • Broken blood vessels

What is a Forever Young BBL treatment like?

BBL treatments typically only take 30 to 45 minutes. After cleansing your skin and applying a cooling gel, your provider will glide the device over your skin as it delivers pulses of light. Most people say the treatment feels like a warming sensation or a mild rubber band snap.

Discover Your Treatment Options

What is Forever Young BBL recovery like?

Other than a red or sunburnt appearance that typically dissipates within a few hours, you should be able to return to your usual activities very quickly. We recommend diligently wearing SPF and avoiding sun exposure for the next week or 2, as your skin will be especially sensitive to the sun.

What results can I expect after a Forever Young BBL treatment?

Any pigmented spots on your skin will darken initially before flaking off over the next 7 to 14 days, leaving behind clearer, more evenly colored skin. Many people opt for 3 treatments to begin with and follow up with touch-ups every 6-12 months to maintain their results. Other skin treatments, such as HydraFacial MD®or microdermabrasion, can keep your skin glowing between appointments.

Halo Hybrid Fractional Laser

The Halo laser offers a dual approach to skin improvement, combining both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to deliver powerful results with less downtime than traditional laser skin resurfacing.

What does the Halo laser treat?

Halo provides youthful rejuvenation by treating the outer layer of skin and causing a regenerative effect in deeper tissues where collagen resides. This helps treat concerns such as:

  • Sun damage
  • Freckles, sunspots, and brown discoloration
  • Melasma
  • Rough texture
  • Scars
  • Lines and wrinkles
  • Enlarged pores

What is a Halo laser treatment like?

The treatment intensity and length can be adjusted based on your concerns and goals, though many treatments range between 60 to 90 minutes. Some people say they feel warmth or tingling throughout the treated area during the procedure. Your provider will apply a topical anesthetic 40 minutes prior to treatment to keep you comfortable.

What is Halo laser recovery like?

Many people are able to return to their usual activities the day after their treatment, though redness, warmth, and mild swelling may persist for about a week. It’s best to wear SPF and avoid sun exposure for the next couple of weeks.

What results can I expect after a Halo laser treatment?

Halo helps create an overall more youthful and glowing appearance, including softer, smoother, and more elastic skin. Yearly touch-ups can help prolong these results.
