While the typical procedure time varies depending on treatment sites, Dr. Christopher Pavlou’s steps to ensure the best results are the same.
For over ten years, Dr. Christopher Pavlou’s global approach combines the latest innovations in aesthetic medicine with tried and tested reliable methods to achieve a naturally rejuvenated appearance. Dr. Pavlou has extensive training in performing BroadBand Light treatments with the BBL™ device, so with the Skin Technique team’s support, you know you’re in the right hands.
BBL™ is a cutting-edge treatment that uses powerful light energy to rejuvenate the skin. This treatment harnesses the power of broad-spectrum light, which can penetrate deep into the skin and stimulate new collagen production.
By targeting damaged cells and encouraging the growth of healthy tissues, BBL™ therapy can help to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, tighten loose skin, and reduce the appearance of age spots, sun damage, and other signs of aging.
Because of the high light intensity, the broad range of light waves, and the ability to garner more energy, you will enjoy a faster, more precise treatment.
After your initial consultation with the Skin Technique team, a treatment plan will be created to address your specific concerns. During BroadBand Light Therapy, your skin will be cleansed, you will be given eye protection, and a clear gel will be applied to the treatment area.
Once your skin is prepped, a series of passes will be performed over the skin of the treatment area with the BBL™ device, which flashes light to the skin. The light then penetrates your skin, damaging pigment, blood vessels, and tissue.
Your body’s natural healing response and collagen production will then kick in to repair the damage and reduce the appearance of your skin concerns.
BroadBand Light Therapy is often preferred over some laser treatments as it uses a broader spectrum of light that can be filtered to treat various skin conditions and covers a larger area of skin than a laser can. After your treatment, the skin will be cooled down, and sunscreen will be applied.
Not only is this treatment incredibly quick, making it a perfect choice for anyone looking to restore their youthful glow without surgery or invasive procedures, but a BBL™ device can also help with a myriad of concerns, including:

Not only is this treatment incredibly quick, making it a perfect choice for anyone looking to restore their youthful glow without surgery or invasive procedures, but BBL™ can also help with the following:
While most people experience little to no side effects from the treatment, there is a small risk of developing adverse reactions. Dr. Christopher Pavlou and his team have been performing BBL™ treatments for years, and the risk of a significant complication is extremely low. After your treatment, you may experience mild irritation, redness, and blistering, especially if you are being treated for hyperpigmentation.
In rare cases, bruising, scabbing, and uneven skin tone can also occur.
For patients with pigmented skin, the treatment will cause their skin to darken and flake off over the next one or two weeks as it heals. Expect the results of the treatment to appear within one week. Your BBL™ device will last indefinitely with regular treatments. After your initial treatments, you should book at least one to two appointments a year for maintenance.

Unlike most laser treatments, BroadBand Light Therapy uses light to treat skin concerns without removing the skin’s surface. All risks are extremely rare.
Although the results of BroadBand Light Therapy are not permanent, they can last for four months or longer if you attend regular maintenance treatments.
One treatment will provide you with extremely effective results, but a series of BroadBand Light Device Treatments are usually recommended, performed in three to four-week intervals depending on the area of concern.
If you have one to two BroadBand Light Treatments, your results will last a few months. However, if you receive three treatments (or more) every year, you will enjoy smooth, youthful, and evenly pigmented skin for as long as you’d like.
