Forever Clear BBL™ in Newport Beach
More people than ever are turning to BBL technology for a wide range of skin conditions, including acne and breakouts. These are just a few reasons Newport Beach women and men of all ages are raving over Sciton’s Forever Clear BBL.
Forever Clear BBL is an advanced acne treatment system that uses BroadBand Light (BBL) technology to:
- Target and kill the bacteria that cause acne
- Reduce inflammation and redness
The “Forever Clear” aspect of the treatment refers to the long-lasting effects and improved skin clarity you can achieve with multiple treatments.
Effective Acne Control
Utilizing a unique blend of light and thermal energy, Forever Clear BBL directly targets and eliminates acne-causing bacteria for visibly reduced breakouts.
Minimal Downtime
Get back to your life immediately after treatment. This non-invasive procedure is perfect for the busy individual who values time.
Long-Lasting Radiance
Invest in your skin’s health with results that last for months, making Forever Clear BBL a valuable addition to your skincare routine.
How Does Forever Clear BBL Work?
Forever Clear BBL uses light energy to penetrate the skin deeply and target specific cells, such as melanocytes and blood vessels. This energy heats the cells causing them to break down and be naturally absorbed by the body.
The computer-controlled system precisely adjusts the wavelength and intensity of the light energy, promoting greater accuracy and customization in treatment. The handpiece for Forever Clear BBL has a cooling mechanism to keep the skin comfortable during treatment and reduce the risk of burns or injury.
This revolutionary procedure is a three-step process that utilizes blue, yellow, and infrared light to enhance the skin’s natural healing process and eliminate bacteria. It’s a non-invasive procedure, so there is no need for anesthesia.
The Forever Clear BBL procedure in Newport Beach is in a comfortable treatment room at LEA Plastic Surgery. Your aesthetic nurse will first cleanse the skin and apply a topical gel. Then the nurse will use the handheld device to apply different light frequencies to the target areas.
- The first step involves using blue light to target and eliminate the bacteria that cause acne in the pores.
- The second step involves using yellow light to reduce inflammation and redness. This results in healthier-looking skin and can help prevent new breakouts.
- Finally, the skin is treated with infra-red light in rapid, gentle pulses to initiate the body’s natural healing process, reduce scarring, and enhance the results of the previous steps.
During and after the procedure, you may feel a warming sensation. This typically goes away after an hour or so.
Is Forever Clear BBL Right for Me?
The Forever Clear BBL treatment is best for individuals 16 years and older with mild to moderate acne and are looking for a non-invasive alternative to traditional acne treatments such as antibiotics, retinoids, and chemical peels. It can treat acne for many patients of different ages and skin types. The treatment can be effective, whether you have hormonal or adult-onset acne.
What Can I Treat With Forever Clear BBL?
The BBL technology combines light energy and cooling to gently treat the skin, resulting in a brighter, more even complexion. Forever Clear BBL can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns including:
- Acne
- Redness
- Acne scarring
- Pigmentation
All body areas can be targeted thanks to the device’s spot-size adaptors. These magnetic gold plates can instantly adjust to different areas including contoured areas such as the chin and cheekbones. The most common areas that people target include:
- Bikini area
- Face
- Neck
- Back
- Chest
- Buttocks
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The procedure is minimally invasive and some patients may need 3-5 treatments to achieve their goals. Dr. Ho Taghva can provide a personalized treatment plan tailored to your skin concerns and goals.
When Will I See Results & How Long Will They Last?
Typically, patients can expect to see some improvement in their skin within 5-7 days after the treatment. The full effects of the treatment may take several weeks or even months to debut, as the skin continues to heal and regenerate.
Forever Clear BBL can give you long-lasting results, but you might need touch-ups now and then. How often you need them depends on how bad your acne is. Some people need treatments every month, while others only need them every six months.
Your Forever Clear BBL Consultation
It’s important to note that not everyone is a good candidate for Forever Clear BBL. Factors such as skin type, severity of acne, and medical history can impact the effectiveness of the treatment and the risk of side effects. We highly recommend scheduling a consultation with a licensed skin care professional to determine if Forever Clear BBL is a good option for you.
Dr. Goretti Ho Taghva provides Forever Clear BBL consultations at LEA Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach, CA. Together with her team of aesthetic experts, she can thoroughly evaluate your skin and medical history and make a personalized recommendation based on your specific needs and goals.
Aftercare and Healing
After your Forever Clear BBL treatment, your skin might be a little red and swollen. That’s normal, and it should go away on its own. You can put on makeup and get back to your regular routine right away. There’s no downtime with this treatment!
How to Prepare for Forever Clear BBL
There are a few simple steps you can take before your Forever Clear acne treatment to ensure you get the best results:
- If you have any concerns or questions, reach out to us before the treatment. We can help ensure that you are fully prepared and have a successful treatment experience.
- Cleanse your face and remove all makeup, lotions, and oils. Your skin should be free of any products that could interfere with the treatment.
- Stay out of the sun and avoid using tanning beds for a few weeks before the treatment. Sun exposure can increase skin sensitivity and may increase the risk of side effects.
- Stop using any topical medications, including retinoids and acne creams, a few days before the treatment. These products can increase skin sensitivity and may interfere with the results of the treatment.
- If you have facial hair, shave the area to be treated to make the treatment more effective.
- Wear comfortable clothing to the appointment, as you will need to remove clothing from the area to be treated.
- Drink plenty of water before the treatment to ensure your skin is hydrated. This will make the treatment more comfortable and may improve the results.
How Much Does Forever Clear BBL Cost in Newport Beach?
The cost of your Forever Clear BBL treatment varies depending on how many sessions you need, but we typically recommend packages of multiple treatments for best results. For example, we offer a package of 4 treatments for $2400.
Is Forever Clear BBL Safe?
Sciton’s Forever Clear BBL procedure is FDA-cleared and deemed safe for patients of all ages, including teenagers.
Most patients do not experience any adverse side effects from the Forever Clear BBL treatment. It’s normal to feel some intense burning, redness, warmth, and a sunburned sensation after BBL. You might also notice that brown spots look darker right away. These side effects should go away within a week or two.
