What is BBL® HERO by Sciton?
BBL® HEROTM is a new technology developed by Sciton for treating skin conditions such as sun damage, age spots, freckles, rosacea, and broken capillaries. HERO stands for High Energy Rapid Output, which means the treatment is more efficient and faster than traditional BBL technology.
How does BBL® HERO work?
BBL® HERO uses broadband light energy to target specific pigments in the skin. The energy is absorbed by the targeted pigments and destroys them, leaving the surrounding skin tissue unaffected. The body’s natural healing process then removes the pigments and repairs the skin, resulting in a smoother, clearer, and more youthful-looking complexion.
What are the benefits of BBL® HERO?
BBL® HERO has several benefits over traditional BBL technology. It is faster, more efficient, and delivers more energy in less time, which means fewer treatment sessions are needed. It also has a larger treatment area, which means larger areas of the body can be treated at once. Additionally, BBL® HERO is less painful and has less downtime than other skin rejuvenation treatments.
Is BBL® HERO safe?
Yes, BBL® HERO is a safe and effective treatment that has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of a wide range of skin conditions. The technology has been extensively tested and has been shown to be safe for all skin types.
How long does a BBL® HERO treatment take?
A BBL® HERO treatment typically takes around 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. The treatment is quick and convenient, with no downtime, so patients can return to their daily activities immediately after the treatment.
