Photofacial Acne Treatment In Scottsdale, AZ

Forever Clear Broad Band Light (BBL™) has now proven to be helpful in the treatment of acne. In many cases, this blue light laser for acne offers an alternative to oral medications such as Accutane or long-term antibiotics. The shorter wavelengths of BBL™, in the blue-light spectrum, attack p-acne bacteria on the surface and in the sebaceous gland. Along with a home skincare program designed for acne-prone skin, you can experience significant long-term clearance.*

Forever Clear BBL™ Treatment

During the Sciton BBL™ Acne treatment, short pulses of intense light are emitted from an applicator onto your skin. The light penetrates through various skin layers and helps killing acne bacteria and reducing the inflammation or sebum excess (skin oil) production that characterizes acne.

HOW DOES THE BBL™ TREATMENT WORK?

Sciton BBL™ is a FDA approved treatment that utilizes a blue filter to selectively target the p-acnes bacteria that are partially responsible for acne in the skin. BBL offers incredible results, such as reduced pigmentation, tightened skin and smoothed-out texture.

WHO IS THE IDEAL CANDIDATE FOR TREATMENT?

Anyone who has complexion flaws such as acne, acne scarring, uneven texture or hyperpigmentation can be a good candidate for our non-invasive photofacial BBL skin treatment. Through fast, effective treatments, patients can target these skin issues and regain confidence. Patients who are not good candidates for treatment are those with pre-existing medical conditions that make their skin sensitive or slow to heal, anyone who’s pregnant or those who have a deep tan.

WHAT IS THE BBL PHOTOFACIAL TREATMENT LIKE?

Some of the biggest BBL photofacial benefits are how quick and tolerable the treatments are. You can come in and out in the span of a lunchbreak, with the procedure taking as little as 20 minutes! The way these highly effective, non-invasive, no-downtime treatments work is that a thin layer of clear gel is applied to your skin to enhance the BBL laser’s effectiveness and help you feel more comfortable. Then we gently heat the top layers of skin, which creates a slight stinging sensation. This stimulates the skin to regenerate collagen and elastin.

While the procedure destroys imperfections on the uppermost layers, it unveils a brighter, smoother and more vibrant complexion underneath. Most patients have minimal discomfort and find the treatment virtually painless. BBL sessions last 20-30 minutes.*

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER TREATMENT?

After treatment is completed, some may experience temporary reddening and minimal swelling of the acne, and surrounding skin for 1-2 days. This is transient and usually associated with minimal to no downtime. Makeup can be applied immediately, if desired.*

HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?

To achieve maximum improvement with BBL™, a series of 8 weekly treatments is most effective. Most patients will need periodic touch up treatments ranging from monthly to every 6 months, depending on your acne type and severity.*
