What Is BBL Therapy?

BBL—or Broadband Light—uses pulses of high-intensity light energy to penetrate the skin at customizable depths. Unlike traditional lasers that rely on a single wavelength, BBL therapy in Chattanooga delivers multiple light bands, allowing us to selectively target brown spots, vascular lesions, and early sun damage while stimulating collagen for long-term firmness.

The treatment is often called a “photofacial,” yet it reaches deeper than a standard IPL, providing faster, more even results. Sessions last about 30 minutes, and most patients see clearer, brighter skin after just one visit, with optimal improvement in a three-treatment series. Because BBL is non-ablative, the epidermis remains intact, so downtime is minimal—perfect for busy professionals and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Benefits of BBL Therapy

Reduces Sun Spots

Light energy breaks up brown patches, age spots, and freckles so they fade noticeably within days.

Clears Redness & Rosacea

Vascular targets absorb BBL pulses, diminishing broken capillaries and flushing for a more even tone.

Smooths Fine Lines

Collagen stimulation softens creases around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.

Tightens Pores

Heat-induced collagen remodeling refines enlarged pores for a silkier finish.

Quick Lunchtime Treatment

A complete BBL laser treatment in Chattanooga often takes less than half an hour.

Little to No Downtime

Mild redness resolves quickly; makeup is safe the next morning.

Treats Face & Body

We can rejuvenate the neck, chest, arms, and hands in the same visit.

Customizable Settings

Multiple wavelength filters let us tailor energy for your specific concerns and skin type.

Pairs Perfectly With BOTOX®

Combine toxin or filler injections and enjoy a comprehensive glow-up under one roof.

Confidence Boost

A clearer complexion can elevate self-esteem at work events, family photos, and everyday encounters.

Are You a Candidate for BBL Therapy in Chattanooga?

Ideal candidates have mild to moderate discoloration, redness, or fine lines and want visible improvement without downtime. If sun spots from paddle-boarding on the Tennessee River linger, or rosacea makes you flush during board meetings, BBL laser treatment in Chattanooga may suit you.

Most skin types Fitzpatrick I–IV respond well; darker complexions require a personalized assessment to avoid pigment fluctuation. You should be free of active infections, avoid tanning beds/self-tanner for two weeks, and not be pregnant or photosensitive from certain medications.

What to Expect During Your BBL Procedure in Chattanooga

After cleansing your skin, we apply a cool gel and give you protective eyewear. Using the latest Sciton® platform, our RN glides a sapphire-cooled handpiece across the treatment zone, delivering rapid light pulses that feel like warm snaps—most compare it to a quick rubber-band flick.

A full-face pass typically finishes in 15–20 minutes; including décolletage or hands adds only minutes more.

Thanks to contact cooling, discomfort stays minimal, and no anesthesia is required. We adjust energy and filters in real time, guided by surgeon-defined parameters, ensuring optimal clearance with maximum safety.

Post-treatment, we apply a soothing serum and SPF 50, then review after-care: avoid hot yoga or direct sun for 48 hours, moisturize generously, and let darkened pigment “mend” flake off naturally over the next 5–7 days.

What Is the Recovery Like After BBL Therapy?

Mild redness similar to a light sunburn often fades within hours. Pigmented spots may darken (“pepper”) before sloughing away, while redness gradually lessens over several days. Makeup can be applied the next morning, and most clients return to work immediately. Because the epidermis remains intact, there is no oozing, peeling, or social downtime.

How Much Does BBL Laser Treatment Cost?

Total investment depends on the size of the treatment area (face only versus face + neck or hands), the number of sessions needed to reach your goals, and any series or membership savings you decide to use. Before scheduling, we’ll provide a clear written estimate so you can make an informed, pressure-free decision.
