About
WHAT IS IPL/BBL PHOTOFACIAL?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and BBL (BroadBand Light) are non-invasive treatments that use light energy to target pigmentation, redness, sun damage, and visible blood vessels. The light penetrates the skin and is absorbed by melanin or haemoglobin, breaking down unwanted pigment and reducing redness for clearer, more even-toned skin.
IT CAN BE USED TO:
- Reduce sun damage and age spots
- Even out skin tone and reduce pigmentation
- Minimise redness and rosacea
- Improve the appearance of broken capillaries
- Smooth skin texture and reduce pore size
- Stimulate collagen for overall rejuvenation

What to Expect
A qualified practitioner applies a cooling gel and uses a handheld device to deliver pulses of light to the treatment area. The light energy targets pigmented or red areas, which absorb the light and break down. Over the following days, darkened spots rise to the surface and flake off, revealing clearer skin underneath.
