The Benefits of BBL
BBL (Broadband Light) therapy is a cutting-edge treatment designed to minimize skin damage and unveil smoother, younger, and more radiant skin. At Face It Franklin, we are thrilled to offer this innovative therapy to our clients in the Franklin and Nashville, TN areas. Here are five compelling benefits of BBL and why it might be the perfect solution for your skin concerns.
Combat Redness and Rosacea
Rosacea, characterized by noticeable facial redness and visible blood vessels, can be challenging to manage. Some individuals also experience pus-filled bumps that resemble acne. Covering up these symptoms often requires heavy makeup and advanced techniques. Our expert team at Face It Franklin uses BBL therapy to target the tiny blood vessels causing redness, significantly improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of rosacea symptoms.
Rosacea can affect self-confidence and quality of life, but BBL offers a noninvasive solution that addresses the root of the problem. The treatment works by delivering light energy that gently heats the upper layers of the skin. This process stimulates the skin cells to regenerate new collagen, which helps reduce redness and inflammation associated with rosacea. After a few sessions, you will notice a significant reduction in redness and a more even skin tone.
Effective Acne Treatment
While acne is commonly associated with adolescence, many adults continue to battle breakouts well into their 30s, 40s, and 50s. Factors such as stress, genetics, and certain cosmetic products can contribute to adult acne. BBL’s intense pulsed light (IPL) energy penetrates the skin’s surface, stimulating healing and cell regeneration to clear up acne and prevent future breakouts.
Adult acne can be particularly frustrating as it often coincides with other skin concerns such as wrinkles and sun damage. BBL therapy offers a dual benefit by treating active acne and addressing these additional skin issues. The light energy used in BBL therapy targets the bacteria that cause acne, reducing inflammation and preventing future breakouts. Furthermore, BBL promotes the turnover of skin cells, which helps reduce acne scars and improve overall skin texture.
Revitalize Sun-Damaged and Pigmented Skin
Sun damage can damage your skin, but BBL therapy at Face It Franklin offers a precise solution. Using various wavelengths of light, BBL heats the skin’s outer layer to target and reduce pigments like freckles and sunspots. The result is more vibrant, youthful-looking skin that can maintain its appearance with proper post-treatment care.
Sun damage accumulates over the years, leading to dark spots, uneven skin tone, and a dull complexion. BBL therapy targets melanin, the pigment in the skin, breaking it down and allowing the body to eliminate these pigmented cells naturally. This process reduces the appearance of sunspots and freckles and promotes a more even skin tone and brighter complexion. Regular treatments can help maintain these results, keeping your skin looking fresh and rejuvenated.
Reduce Vascular Lesions
Vascular lesions, including birthmarks and age-related imperfections, can be effectively treated with BBL’s skin-penetrating power. These lesions are typically fed by tiny capillaries near the skin’s surface. BBL therapy targets these blood vessels, breaking them down and restoring healthy blood flow beneath the skin to eliminate these imperfections.
Vascular lesions can appear as spider veins, port wine stains, or cherry angiomas. They can be cosmetically bothersome and affect your self-esteem. BBL therapy offers a safe and effective method to treat these conditions without invasive procedures. The blood vessels absorb the light energy used in BBL therapy, causing them to coagulate and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. This process reduces the appearance of these lesions and promotes healthier, clearer skin.
Minimize Signs of Aging
Aging brings changes in skin texture, elasticity, and overall appearance. Age spots, sunspots, freckles, and spider veins become more prominent. Collagen production also declines, leading to thinner, less elastic skin. BBL therapy at Face It Franklin stimulates new collagen production, reducing the appearance of age-related skin irregularities and promoting natural healing and rejuvenation.
The aging process can lead to the development of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. BBL therapy addresses these concerns by promoting collagen and elastin production, the proteins responsible for maintaining the skin’s firmness and elasticity. The light energy used in BBL therapy penetrates deep into the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing process and encouraging the growth of new, healthy skin cells. Over time, this reduces fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin tone and texture, and a more youthful appearance.

What to Expect During Your BBL Treatment at Face It Franklin
When you schedule a BBL treatment at Face It Franklin, you can expect a comprehensive and personalized approach to your skin care needs. Our experienced professionals will assess your skin concerns during your initial consultation and develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific goals.
The BBL procedure itself is relatively quick and comfortable. A cooling gel is applied to the treatment area to ensure comfort and protective eyewear is provided to shield your eyes from the light. The Sciton BBL handpiece is then used to deliver the light energy to the targeted areas of your skin. You may experience a mild warming sensation, but most patients find the procedure well-tolerated.
After the treatment, you may notice some redness and mild swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, but these side effects typically subside within a few hours to a couple of days. It is essential to follow post-treatment care instructions provided by our team to ensure optimal results and protect your skin from sun exposure.
Long-Lasting Results and Maintenance
One significant advantage of BBL therapy is the long-lasting results it can provide. Proper skin care and maintenance can sustain the benefits of BBL treatments for years. Regular maintenance sessions, combined with a good skincare routine and sun protection, will help you maintain the youthful and radiant appearance achieved through BBL therapy.
Many patients find that periodic BBL treatments, spaced a few months apart, are an effective way to keep their skin looking its best. Our team at Face It Franklin will work with you to develop a maintenance plan that fits your lifestyle and skin care goals, ensuring you continue to enjoy the benefits of BBL therapy for the long term.
