What To Expect

Before Treatment

During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin condition as well as discuss your goals to come up with a treatment plan that meets your needs. We may advise you to avoid certain skincare products or sun exposure for a few days before your BBL session.

During Treatment

Depending on the treated areas, the BBL treatment typically takes 30-45 minutes. You may feel warm during the procedure, but most patients find it comfortable. Protective eyewear will be provided.

After Treatment

Your skin may appear slightly red or flushed after treatment, but this usually subsides within a few hours. You can resume normal activities immediately, but protecting your skin from sun exposure and following our recommended skincare routine is crucial.

Maintenance

The number of BBL sessions needed varies depending on the severity of your acne scars. Many patients see significant improvement after 3-5 treatments spaced about four weeks apart. We recommend periodic maintenance treatments and a customized skincare regimen for maintaining and enhancing your results.

Treatable Areas with Acne Scar Treatment

  • Face: Targets acne scars on cheeks, forehead, and chin.
  • Neck: Addresses scarring that extends to the neck area.
  • Chest: Treats acne scars on the chest or décolletage.
  • Back: Targets acne scarring on the back, a common problem area.
  • Shoulders: Addresses acne scars on shoulders caused by body acne.

Results of Acne Scar Treatment

Following BBL treatment, patients typically notice their skin texture improving gradually and their acne scars reducing. As collagen production increases, results continue to improve for several months. By utilizing a combination of treatments and proper skin care, it is possible to improve the smoothness and overall appearance of the skin.
