Forever Young BBL Photo-Facial
Every once in a while a treatment is introduced that takes us one step closer to the fountain of youth. The Forever Young BBL Photo-Facial is a big step in that direction and is one of the most advanced techniques available today to slow down, treat and reverse damaged and aged facial and non-facial skin. This is the most effective and advanced form of photo-facial and photo-rejuvenation currently available due to the broadband light technology.
The BBL Forever Young Photo-Facial is far superior to IPL read here to find out how and why.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Forever Young BBL Photo-Facial is quick and safe, performed in 30 minutes or less. It utilizes various wavelengths of light that target and denature damaged cells in the skin, stimulating our body’s natural healing process. When this occurs, pigmented damage such as sunspots and freckles get pushed to the surface of the skin and naturally flake off. The light also treats unsightly broken capillaries and diffused redness in the skin. The end result is a more even and bright skin tone. Another benefit of the Forever Young BBL Photo-Facial is the stimulation of collagen production that leads to thickening of the skin, leaving you with youthful, rejuvenated, healthy skin. Forever Young BBL clients have seen great results on the face, neck, chest, hands, arms and other body parts.
EXCITING RESEARCH AND EVIDENCE
Exciting new clinical research from Stanford University has revealed that having a Forever Young BBL Photo-Facial 2+ times a year actually reverses the signs of aging and causes skin cells to behave younger. Younger skin cells produce more collagen and elastin than aged skin cells.
Compelling evidence supports regular long- term BBL treatments that will enhance the expression of longevity-related genes in aged skin cells; essentially reversing the ageing process and returning skin to a genetically youthful state.
Read the Journal of Investigative Medicine Study performed at Stanford Medicine proving the incredible benefits of the Sciton BBL Forever Young Photo-Facial.
UNDERSTANDING THE EFFECTS OF SUN DAMAGE ON A DEEPER LEVEL
Sun damage is more than skin deep. An unnerving fact is that UVA and UVB exposure not only depletes our collagen, but it actually alters the DNA of our skin cells. This breakdown results in uneven pigmentation, changes in skin texture, loss of elasticity and, increasingly more common, cancer.
The effects of UV exposure are cumulative, becoming more visible as we age. The more exposure we have the greater our risk becomes for developing skin cancer and prematurely aged skin. A Groundbreaking Study on Forever Young BBL from Stanford University has made an incredible discovery. This study has demonstrated that Forever Young BBL treatments can restore the gene expression pattern of aged human skin to more resemble young skin and, more importantly, healthy skin. Over 1,000 gene expressions became “rejuvenated” to be more like youthful skin resulting in decreased elastosis and more uniform collagen deposition; leading to improvements in fine wrinkles and pigmentation.

FAQ
Book a complimentary skin consultation to determine if this treatment is right for your skin needs. This is a mandatory first step for all our clients.
It is important to discontinue the use of prescription vitamin A products and acids one week prior to your treatment and one week post treatment.
Even though the downtime is minimal we recommend you do not have an important event within 7 days of your BBL Forever Young Treatment.
We recommend having a microdermabrasion treamtent 7-10 days after your photo-facial to polish away the targeted pigmentation and enhance the overall results and appearance of your skin.
The downtime with Forever Young BBL Photo-Facials is very minimal and makeup can be worn post treatments.
When treating hyper-pigmentation the targeted pigment will darken in color and begin to look like coffee granules on the skin. This will naturally exfoliate off over 7+ days. You can apply makeup post treatment.
There is a chance of swelling when stronger treatments are performed on the cheek and eye area. The swelling can last a couple of days if it does occur.
This depends on your skin needs and goals. Your SKN practitioner will determine this at your complimentary consultation. The average is 1-4 treatments.
The first Forever Young BBL Treatment always provides the most visible results.
The first Forever Young BBL Treatment always provides the most visible results. This is because the pigmentation that is most prominent and superficial is targeted and will flake off. Pigmentation that sits deeper in the skin may have minimal to no response to follow up treatments unless it is superficial enough to be targeted but you will not receive the same dramatic flaking and downtime as the first session.
It is very important to understand that when undergoing a series of Forever Young BBL Photo-Facials that the results go far beyond those visible to the eye.

Absolutely and this is what makes the BBL Technology far superior to the IPL Technology. It is very important to understand that when undergoing a series of BBL Forever Young Photo-Facials that there may be minimal to no visible changes to the skin at follow up sessions if all targetable pigment has been treated but there are so many incredible benefits happening beneath the skin that cannot be measured or seen by the visible eye.
For example it has been clinically proven that having a series of BBL Forever Young Photo-Facials slows down aging of the skin, which means that the benefits are long term and not seen in the short term.

This is why we encourage clients looking for the most powerful anti-aging treatment to have a series (2-4) once a year for the deep, genetic changes that it causes. Aging is happening beneath the skin, it is a limited perspective to view aging in the scope of the visible superficial signs. BBL is going deep to prevent the surfacing of aging on the skin overtime. Literally slows down aging of the skin by treating it where it begins.
YES! We encourage clients looking for the most powerful anti-aging treatment to have a series once a year for the deep, genetic expression benefits (enhance the expression of longevity- related genes in aged skin cells).
Aging is happening/beginning beneath the skin, it is a very limited perspective to view aging as that which is visible to the eye. The Forever Young BBL light energy is penetrating beyond the epidermis deep within the skin to slow down, and prevent aging from occurring and preventing the visible signs from occurring, this is true anti-aging. It literally slows down aging of the skin by treating it where it begins.

What our Clients say
“Photo rejuvenation made my skin glow and got rid of broken capillaries. I also noticed that my pores got smaller. Overall great experience!”
– Yana L.
“The BBL (for freckles and sun spots). I have tried IPL before with decent results at another clinic. After years of neglecting proper sunscreen and skin care, I am (finally) on a mission to turn back the clock and get rid of my sun damage. As these treatments are quite pricey, I did some research and found that many dermatologists found that the Sciton BBL machine gave better results than IPL lasers. I was very excited to give it a try. Melissa did the treatment and I was pleasantly surprised that it actually hurt WAY less than my previous IPL treatment. I noticed my freckles darken (like they are supposed to) which is a good sign that the treatment was effective. A week later and they are starting to flake off (yay!).”
– K.M.
“Nice clinic, lovely atmosphere, very good service, professional staff. I will recommend this place any time.
The best in TOWN!!”
– Mary B.
