Sciton Forever Young BBL™ Treatment
What is BBL (BroadBand Light) Therapy?
BroadBand Light (BBL)™ is the world’s most powerful IPL device on the market. It sets new standards in treating skin conditions associated with aging, active life styles, and sun damage. BBL has the ability to provide dermal skin renewal, permanent hair removal, and the treatment of pigmented lesions, vascular lesions, and acne conditions.
BBL uses cutting-edge, advanced IPL technology to produce younger-looking skin that’s firmer, and more even in tone and texture. With little recovery time and no surgery, BBL is a safe, FDA-cleared treatment for sun damage, anti-aging, and overall skin rejuvenation.
Clinical studies have proven that BBL treatments are a non-invasive option that achieves significant skin improvements. BBL uses broad-spectrum visible and infrared light to selectively heat layers of skin, getting rid of undesired pigmentation, redness and other unwanted blemishes.
Scition Forever Young BBL™ delivers a combination of flexibility, speed, comfort and efficiency for skin rejuvenation. The treatment can be personalised to fit your needs and it requires fewer treatments to achieve visible and superior results than other IPL systems.
Our BBL (BroadBand Light Therapy) uses a medical-grade Sciton Forever Young BBL™ technology that is pioneered by Dr. Patrick Bitter Jr over 12 years ago and has been reversing signs of aging ever since.
This technology is has been proven to alter aged skin cells to mimic young skin cells for skin transformation. As a result, regular treatments will not only treat signs of aging, but they will also not only restore healthier, younger skin.
Issues that can be treated with Forever Young BBL™
Sun Damage
The sun’s rays are among the most harmful contributors to aging. Sun damage often leaves sun spots and fine lines on the skin, and significant sun exposure can also lead to skin cancer. The Forever Young BBL™ can effectively reduce skin damage caused by the sun.
Loss of Elasticity/Sagging
Your skin will eventually lose elasticity and begin to sag to some extent, no matter how well you take care of it. Forever Young BBL™ treatment boosts collagen levels in the skin to add plumpness and tighten the skin, resulting in smoothed out wrinkles and improved sagging.
Uneven Skin Tone
Uneven skin tone (e.g. discoloration and hyperpigmentation) often develops as you age, typically making you look older than you actually are. By removing discolouration and dark spots to balance out your skin tone, you are able to enjoy clearer skin.
SPIDER Veins
Over time, capillaries beneath the skin become raised and may even burst. Forever Young BBL™ treatment effectively gets rid of these damaged capillaries without harming the surrounding tissue.
What are the advantages of Forever Young BBL™ treatments?
Forever Young BBL™ treatments are perfect for the active, busy patient for whom time and appearance are important. With no time off from work or play, enjoy smooth, glowing skin with diminished fine lines and younger-looking skin.
With little to no down time, this advanced IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) therapy gives you the benefits of a medium-depth laser or chemical peel, or other types of resurfacing/skin rejuvenation procedure without the blisters, burns, and long recovery time. Such IPL-based treatments simultaneously deliver light in a spectrum of wavelengths. These different wavelengths have a combined effect on the skin, removing brown and red pigments in the skin to give a fairer, clearer complexion while also stimulating the production of collagen within the skin.
Forever Young BBL™ treatment diminishes or gets rid of age/liver spots, fine wrinkles (rhytids), facial flushing, redness, broken capillaries, telangiectasia (purple or blue veins on the face), hemangiomas (sacs of red, purple or blue blood vessels resembling a blister, aka strawberry hemangiomas), freckles and other signs of sun damage. Typically, our patients experience a 75 - 95% improvement in their existing skin condition. It is also the only proven therapy to help with redness and flushing associated with Rosacea. It also diminishes pore size and treats mild acne scars, giving you smoother, healthier skin.

Frequently Asked Questions about BBL Treatments
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IPL AND BBL TREATMENTS?
While both IPL (Intensed Pulsed Light) and BBL (Broadband Light) fall under the category of light therapy, they have distinct differences:
IPL employs bursts of light energy to address general skin concerns like enlarged pores, hyperpigmentation, and acne scars.
In contrast, BBL utilizes a broader spectrum of light energy at higher intensity levels, specifically targeting common signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, broken capillaries (e.g., spider veins, blood vessels), and rosacea. It also offers effective control over acne conditions, including active acne and acne scars.
Moreover, BBL treatments have a notable ability to stimulate the production of new collagen in the skin. This collagen boost contributes to tightening lax or sagging skin, resulting in a more youthful and firm appearance.
WHO IS SUITABLE for the Sciton Forever Young BBL™ treatment?
The Sciton Forever Young BBL™ treatment is suitable for individuals who are experiencing signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles, hyperpigmentation (e.g. sun spots or discolouration) skin laxity (or sagging skin), broken capillaries (e.g. spider veins), skin redness or rosacea, and even acne conditions.
What is the recovery time AND SIDE EFFECTS associated with BBL treatmentS?
Forever Young BBL™ is a non-invasive anti-aging treatment, which means it requires almost little to zero downtime to recover and patients can return to work as soon as the treatment is complete. Individuals may experience mild redness and swelling in the treated areas, but these usually resolve within a few hours.
How many BBL treatments will I need TO SEE RESULTS?
You will likely see a noticeable improvement in your appearance after just one treatment. However, multiple Forever Young BBL™ treatments are recommended to ensure optimal results. The number of treatments needed will vary based on your skin type and how much damage needs to be corrected, but most patients receive between three and five treatments at four-week intervals.
How long do the results OF BBL TREATMENTS last?
Forever Young BBL™ produces satisfying results that can last anywhere between one and two years from just one single treatment. Patients who undergo regular procedures will see continuous age-defying results.
