It’s a typical weekday morning. You just got up to go to the bathroom to wash your face, and you look in the mirror to find what you wished had miraculously disappeared overnight: sun spots, acne, fine lines, and even a little rosacea.
It’s enough to make some people self-conscious and never want to look in the mirror again. Well, imagine if you could get rid of those skin issues overnight after all — while at the same time unlocking your true beauty. All it takes is scheduling a consultation with Live Young Wellness Spa in Flower Mound to discuss the benefits of broad band light treatment.
Broad band light, or BBL, isn’t your typical old-school laser treatments that hurt and often don’t deliver the right results. BBL uses intense pulses of visible light that are painless and can treat a broad range of skin conditions caused by aging and sun exposure. And the best part is that these treatments aren’t limited to your face. Broad band light treats virtually any area of the body, including the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands.

How does Broad band light (BBL) treatment work?
During treatment, the BBL system uses infrared invisible light technology to provide visible complexion improvements to the top layers of skin while working below in the dermis to revitalize old skin cells at the molecular level. Our trained experts start by taking baseline photos of your skin. We then cleanse the treatment area and apply a clear gel. Then, we apply eye protection and get on with the procedure.
With the procedure, we perform a series of passes over the skin with the BBL device. As previously mentioned, the light penetrates your skin and essentially damages the treatment area. Your body will then kick into high gear to repair the damage. As it repairs, you will notice an immediate reduction in the skin conditions you were previously bothered by.
The treatment only takes roughly 15-20 minutes. Afterward, patients leave with a mild red, flushed appearance, which resolves within a few hours. For pigmented skin, the treated pigmented area will darken, fade, and then flake off over time, typically within one to two weeks.
Patients also report minimal discomfort with the procedure, and there is no recovery or downtime required.

Who benefits from broad band light treatments?
The broad band light procedure is generally not recommended for patients with darker skin tones, as darker skin absorbs too much light that can cause dark spots to appear. Our team at Live Young Wellness Spa takes great care in doing a full analysis of your skin to ensure you are receiving the best treatments possible.
