How Does BBL Hero Work?
During a BBL HERO treatment session, our skilled and experienced practitioners will carefully customize the settings to address your unique skin concerns. The broad spectrum of light emitted by the BBL Hero device penetrates deep into the skin, targeting specific chromophores (color-producing cells), such as melanin in pigmented lesions or hair follicles, while leaving the surrounding tissues unharmed.
The light energy gently heats the target area, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, (2) which are essential proteins for maintaining youthful and firm skin. Additionally, BBL Hero has the ability to selectively destroy bacteria responsible for acne, leading to clearer and healthier skin.
Long-Term Skin Transformation
The long-term effects of BBL are truly transformative. Not only does it provide immediate improvements in the appearance of your skin, but it also stimulates collagen production, leading to continued enhancement over time. Therefore, with regular BBL sessions, you can enjoy sustained results and maintain a more youthful, vibrant complexion.
BBL treatments are quick, comfortable, and require minimal downtime. Most patients experience only mild redness or slight swelling immediately after the procedure, which typically resolves within a few hours. This means you can easily fit BBL into your busy schedule without disrupting your daily activities.
The Benefits of BBL
Under the expert care of our skilled team, BBL therapy can deliver effective results without the need for invasive procedures or extensive downtime. Other benefits include the following.
- Reduced signs of aging: BBL therapy effectively targets and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots, helping to restore a more youthful and rejuvenated look to your skin. By stimulating collagen production, BBL treatments promote skin renewal and improve overall texture.
- Improved skin texture: Through the stimulation of collagen production, BBL therapy can enhance skin texture, resulting in a smoother complexion. The treatment helps to minimize the appearance of pores, providing a refined and polished look.
- Even skin tone: BBL technology precisely targets and diminishes redness, pigmentation issues, and sun damage, leading to a more even skin tone. By addressing these concerns, BBL therapy can help you achieve a more radiant and balanced complexion.
- Acne reduction: BBL therapy has shown exceptional results in reducing acne breakouts. By targeting and destroying the bacteria responsible for causing acne and shrinking oil glands, this treatment effectively addresses active acne while preventing future flare-ups.
- Enhanced skin elasticity: By stimulating collagen production, BBL therapy improves skin elasticity, making it firmer and more resilient. This enhancement in elasticity contributes to a more youthful and vibrant appearance.
- Reduces vascular lesions: BBL technology effectively treats vascular lesions such as broken capillaries and spider veins. By targeting and eliminating these unwanted blemishes, BBL therapy significantly improves overall skin appearance.
- Hair removal: In addition to its skin rejuvenating benefits, BBL can also be utilized for hair removal. By targeting unwanted hair follicles, BBL provides long-lasting results, reducing the need for constant shaving or waxing.
BBL treatments are non-invasive, meaning there is no need for surgery or extensive downtime. The procedure is generally well-tolerated and comfortable for patients, allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately afterward.

Preparing for BroadBand Light Treatment
Prior to your BBL HERO treatment at Allegro Med Spa, it is important to adequately prepare for the procedure to ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery.
- Avoid sun exposure: In the weeks leading up to your treatment, it is essential to protect your skin from excessive sun exposure. This includes wearing sunscreen with a high SPF, using protective clothing, and avoiding prolonged periods of sunbathing or tanning beds. Sun-damaged skin can be more sensitive to the BroadBand Light therapy, so taking these precautions will help optimize your results.
- Discontinue certain medications: As instructed by our expert team, you may need to temporarily discontinue certain medications that can increase the risk of complications during the treatment. This includes blood thinners, anti-inflammatory drugs, and supplements such as fish oil and vitamin E. It is important to follow our guidelines closely to minimize any potential adverse effects.
- Shave the treatment area: If you are undergoing BroadBand Light therapy on areas with hair, such as the face or legs, it is advisable to shave the treatment area prior to your appointment. This ensures better contact between the device and your skin, allowing for more effective treatment.
- Hydrate and moisturize: Keeping your skin well-hydrated and moisturized is crucial for optimal results. Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment and regularly apply a gentle, non-irritating moisturizer to maintain skin health.
Procedure
During the BBL HERO session, we will use advanced BBL technology to deliver precise bursts of light energy to your targeted areas. The skin rejuvenation process involves gently applying the BBL handpiece to your skin, emitting flashes of light that penetrate deep into the dermal layers. The heat generated by the light energy stimulates the production of new collagen, which helps to improve the overall texture and firmness of your skin.
Recovery
Following your BBL HERO session, you may experience some mild redness or sensitivity in the treated areas, which typically subsides within a few hours. In rare cases, slight swelling or bruising might occur, but these are temporary and will resolve on their own. It is crucial to protect your skin from direct sunlight and wear sunscreen to enhance the healing process and maintain optimal results.
