Most patients experience minimal downtime and see improvement after just a few sessions.
Treatments Offered:

- Laser Resurfacing with Profractional
What It Treats:
Broad Band Light:
- Sun damage
- Brown spots
- Redness
- Rosacea

- Acne scarring
- Uneven skin tone
BBL stimulates collagen and improves skin clarity at the cellular level, providing long-term rejuvenation and enhancing overall skin tone.
Laser Resurfacing with Nano or Micro Laser Peel:
- Dull skin
- Skin texture
- Fine lines

Looking to polish your skin but only have the weekend? This erbium laser removes the topmost layer of the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other skin imperfections.
Laser Resurfacing with Profractional
- fine lines
- wrinkles
- scars
- sun damage
- acne marks/scars
A customizable, ablative, and fractional skin treatment that uses an erbium laser to create microscopic channels deep within the skin, triggering collagen production with less downtime required than other laser treatments. Topical numbing will be applied prior to treatment.
What to Expect
Broad Band Light:
- Treatment time: 20–45 minutes
- Downtime: Minimal to moderate (depends on treatment depth)
- Sessions needed: 1–3 for best results
Laser Resurfacing with Nano or Micro Laser Peel:
- Treatment time: 20 minutes
- Downtime: 1-2 days depending on the depth performed
Laser Resurfacing with Profractional:
- Downtime: The downtime is dependent on the depth performed and your provider will guide you to the best treatment protocol.
Pain Level:
Comfort level is typically 2–4 out of 10. Most patients describe BBL as feeling like a quick snap of a rubber band followed by warmth. For added comfort, a cooling gel or integrated cooling technology may be applied.
Number of Sessions Required
The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns and goals:
- Sun damage / pigmentation: 1–3 sessions
- Redness / rosacea: 2–4 sessions
- Acne treatment: 3–6 sessions
- Maintenance / anti-aging: 1–2 sessions per year
Treatments are typically spaced 3–4 weeks apart. Many patients notice improvement after their first session, with optimal results developing over a series of treatments.
Ideal Candidates & Skin Types
BBL is ideal for individuals who:
- Have sun damage, age spots, or freckles
- Experience redness or rosacea
- Want to improve uneven skin tone
- Have mild to moderate acne
- Want skin rejuvenation without surgery
Best Skin Types:
BBL works best on lighter to medium skin tones. Your provider will assess your skin type to ensure safe and effective treatment. Patients who are pregnant, actively tanning, or taking certain medications may need to delay treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions

Here’s how it works:
- Light energy is absorbed by brown spots and redness.

- Collagen production is stimulated.
- Skin tone becomes clearer, brighter and more even.
BBL can improve:
- Sun spots
- Age spots
- Freckles
