What is the BBL Sciton Laser?

BBL Sciton utilises intense pulses of specially selected wavelengths of light, alongside CoolComfort™ technology, offering a fast and comfortable treatment and suitable for most skin types. The light technology helps to repair the skin by encouraging collagen production, improving the skin’s tone and texture.

How does BroadBand light work?

A handpiece which emits hundreds of colours of light at once is glided across the skin, penetrating the skin and targeting specific skin cells. The light energy is absorbed and converted to heat. This heat stimulates collagen production and damages unwanted cells, such as those which cause age spots, freckles and hyperpigmentation.

Which skin concerns can BBL Sciton treat?

BBL Sciton can treat a variety of skin concerns, including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation and sun damage
  • Acne
  • Rosacea
  • Thread veins
  • Freckles
  • Moles
  • Birthmarks
  • Unwanted facial or body hair

What happens during a treatment using the BBL Sciton?

During your treatment, the BBL Sciton handpiece will be glided over your skin. You may feel a mild warm or tingling sensation. The treatment lasts on average around 30 minutes. After which, you can return to your daily activities. A course of several treatments may be required for optimum results.

Are there any side-effects associated with a BBL Sciton treatment?

Your skin may feel warm or tingly for a further 30 to 60 minutes after your treatment and there may be some redness to your skin for a few hours afterwards, but this is normal. We will discuss all potential side-effects and aftercare, in your pre-treatment consultation.
