Photofacial

What is a photofacial?

A photofacial, or Intense Pulsed Light therapy, is a procedure that uses light to treat hyperpigmentation and redness.* At Pellé Medical Spa in Manchester, New Hampshire, we use BBL™ to provide photofacials. BBL™ enables treatment of multiple skin conditions with various wavelengths seamlessly using change-on-the-fly Smart Filters. BBL™ BroadBand Light therapy uses cutting-edge technology to produce younger looking skin that’s firmer, and more even in tone and texture.* With little recovery time and no surgery, BBL™ offers a safe, FDA-cleared option for sun damage, anti-aging and skin rejuvenation.*

How does BBL work?

The light energy delivered by the BBL™ will gently heat the upper layers of your skin. The heat absorbed by the targeted areas will stimulate your skin cells to regenerate new collagen.* This process will restore your skin to its natural beauty creating a younger looking you.* In addition, it will eliminate the vessels that cause redness and reduce unwanted melanin that produces pigmented lesions.*

BBL™ uses advanced dual-lamp technology with each lamp supplying half of the energy needed during treatment. This results in unsurpassed lamp lifetimes. Its broad range of wavelengths allows targeted treatment for many skin conditions without the need for additional hand pieces. Its flexible Finesse Adapters enable treatment of hard to reach areas, producing evenly treated skin. With its user-friendly features, superior results, and exceptional ROI, BBL™ is the most complete and versatile broadband light system in its class.

What are the commonly treated conditions?

• Pigmented lesions (e.g., freckles, age spots)*
• Vascular lesions (e.g., small blood vessels)*
• Uneven skin texture rosacea (treatment reduces the overall redness)*
• Acne*

What areas can be treated?

Any area of your body can be treated. Due to being most often exposed to the damaging effects of sunlight, the most popular treatments are on the face, neck, back of the hands, chest and shoulders.

Commonly treated areas include:

• Face
• Chest
• Hands
• Neck
• Shoulders
• And more…

How long will it take to recover?

This is a noninvasive and gentle procedure with virtually no downtime. In most cases, you are able to return to work and resume most of your activities immediately.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments needed will vary from patient to patient. We recommend a series of 4 treatments every 4 weeks. You may also combine your treatment with other popular aesthetic procedures to further personalize your treatment.
