The BBL Photofacial is known for its powerful skin rejuvenation abilities and the ability to treat hyperpigmentation and signs of aging, but it has recently been proven to be just as effective for acne. If you have been struggling with acne, consider Photofacial acne treatment as an alternative to long-term medications.
What is Photofacial Acne Treatment?
Photofacial acne treatment utilizes Forever Clear’s Broad Band Light (BBL™) technology as an alternative to medications like Accutane. BBL™ uses short wavelengths in the blood light spectrum. These blue light rays can effectively target acne-causing bacteria and reduce excess sebum oil – two key causes of acne.
What to Expect
The BBL Photofacial has many benefits: it’s fast, non-invasive, and requires no downtime. Your Photofacial acne treatment can take as little as 30 minutes. First, a thin layer of gel will be applied to the skin to improve the laser’s effectiveness and your comfort. As the top layers of the skin are heated, you may feel a slight stinging sensation as skin blemishes on the surface are destroyed. Collagen and elastin are also stimulated to give your skin a firmer, brighter complexion.
Photofacial Acne Treatment Results and Recovery
After this laser treatment, minor redness and swelling are common for 1-2 days. For optimal results, a series of 8 weekly treatments is recommended along with maintenance treatments every 1-2 months depending on the severity of your acne.
