    PIGMENTATION CONCERNS

    Broad Band Light (BBL) therapy

    Broadband Light (BBL) therapy is sometimes discussed in cosmetic practice for people concerned about pigmentation such as freckles, sunspots, or discolouration. A consultation with a registered health practitioner is required to assess whether this option may be suitable for you, explain what is known about BBL, and outline possible risks and limitations.

    What to Expect with BBL

    If BBL is considered appropriate, your practitioner will explain how the light is applied, what the recovery may involve, and possible side effects. Temporary redness, sensitivity, or flaking can occur. Responses vary between people, and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.

    How Much Does it Cost?

    Costs depend on the size and location of the area being considered. An estimate will be provided following your consultation.

    Important Information

    • Suitability depends on your skin type, medical history, and individual factors.

    • A consultation is required before any option is considered.

    • Outcomes vary and cannot be guaranteed.

    Can skincare help manage pigmentation?

    Some skincare products and prescription creams may be used to help manage pigmentation. These can include options prescribed for short-term use, as well as over-the-counter products containing ingredients such as Vitamin C, Vitamin B3, or Kojic Acid. However, a consultation is required to determine suitability.

    What is pigmentation?

    Skin pigmentation is the uneven colouring of the skin caused by the pigment, melanin. The main causes of pigmentation include UV exposure (resulting in sun damage) and hormones. These triggers increase the production of melanin within the body, which is what gives the skin its tone.

    What is Broad Band Light (BBL)?

    BBL technology uses pulsed light to address pigmentation concerns, such as sunspots and age spots. This works by delivering light energy to the skin’s surface, heating targeted areas with the goal of stimulating skin cells. This process may help reduce the visibility of spots over time, but outcomes aren’t guaranteed.

    Are there any risks / potential complications?

    All cosmetic medical options carry risks. A consultation with a registered health practitioner is required to determine whether an option may be suitable for you and to discuss risks specific to your situation.

    Aftercare

    Following laser-based services, it is common to experience temporary redness, swelling, or sensitivity. Your practitioner will provide aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding sun exposure until the skin has healed. Responses to aftercare vary, and outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
