BBL hair reduction treatment

BBL hair reduction is safe, comfortable, and effective. This advanced FDA approved technology is designed to remove unwanted hair and can treat all skin types.

How does BBL hair reduction work?

BBL produces a beam of highly concentrated light. The laser pulses for a fraction of a second, just long enough to travel down the hair shaft to the end of the hair follicle. This process will eliminate or greatly impede the hair’s growth.

What is BBL hair treatment like?

The laser treatment can cause a tingling sensation. Most patients tolerate the procedure well; however topical anesthesia is an option.

How long do the treatments take?

Treatment time can vary depending on the size of the area treated. A small area may take only five minutes, while a larger area may take up to one hour. BBL affects only the hairs in the growing stage, several treatments will most likely be needed to effectively remove 80-90% of the hair from one area.  Sessions are scheduled at four weeks apart. This allows time to notice the re-growth of hairs that were previously in the resting stage.

How many treatments are required?

Normal hair goes through a cycle that includes three phases: growth, rest and transition. During the growth phase, hair is susceptible to the laser’s energy, but during the resting and transitional phases, hair is resistant. Because of these phases, complete removal is unlikely without multiple sessions. Typically, five to six treatments are necessary to achieve the desired outcome, spaced four weeks apart.
