The Future of Skin Rejuvenation
BBL Treatment Recovery
One of the advantages of BBL is its minimal downtime. Most patients experience some redness and mild swelling for 1-2 days after treatment. You may also feel a sensation similar to a mild sunburn. We'll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results, including the use of gentle skincare products and diligent sun protection.

BBL Treatment Results
Many patients notice improvements in their skin immediately after treatment. However, the full results of BBL develop over time as your skin continues to regenerate. Most patients see significant improvements within 2-4 weeks, with results continuing to improve for several months. The number of treatments needed varies depending on your skin concerns and goals. We typically recommend a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 2-4 weeks apart for optimal results, with maintenance treatments as needed.
