What is BBL Acne Treatment?
The BBL acne treatment uses a powerful Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) device, which uses a blue BBL light and a yellow BBL light to create light energy. This pulsed light energy targets acne-causing bacteria that live on the surface of the skin, as well as the sebaceous glands that are known for causing acne and other skin disorders. The pulsed light’s energy also stimulates and regenerates the skin cells, making it one of the most versatile laser treatments in cosmetics. The Forever Clear BBL treatment by Sciton can be used to improve skin imperfections in both men and women.
