BBL (BroadBand Light) photorejuvenation is an innovative cosmetic treatment used to rejuvenate the skin, reduce signs of aging, and treat a variety of blemishes.

BBL is the world’s most powerful IPL (intense pulsed light) device, delivering pulses of light energy to the skin. These beams of light darken the skin’s pigment throughout the treatment area. This triggers the body’s natural healing process, gradually removing the pigmented cells and replacing them with new, healthy skin cells. BBL photorejuvenation in Tampa treatment also stimulates the increased production of collagen and elastin, which are essential proteins for the health and complexion of the skin.

BBL photorejuvenation is very customizable, and there are several forms of the treatment available:

  • Forever Young BBL
  • Forever Clear BBL
  • BBL Corrective
  • Forever Bare BBL
  • Forever Body BBL
  • SkinTyte
