  • More youthful-looking skin on the face and body

How Does BBL Hero Work?

Your provider will begin by applying a small amount of ultrasound gel to the treatment area and then use a BBL Hero handpiece to gently deliver photothermal light energy to heat the top layers of skin. This heat stimulates new collagen growth in your skin cells, restoring your skin to a more youthful-looking appearance that is firmer and more even, eliminating dark pigment and targeting small blood vessels that create redness, such as broken capillaries.
 

How many BBL Hero Treatment Sessions Will I Need?

Your treatment plan will be customized to your needs, including the number of treatments required to meet your cosmetic goals. We generally recommend that patients have three to four treatments per year to achieve optimal results.
 

Does BBL Hero Hurt?

No, your provider will do everything possible to ensure your comfort during your appointment. While patients may experience a sensation similar to a rubber band snapping on the skin, BBL Hero’s advanced cooling features mean that you can expect little to no discomfort.
