spider veins.
The BBL Hero system is designed to deliver high-energy light pulses to the skin, which target specific chromophores (colors) in the skin, such as melanin (pigment) and hemoglobin (red blood cells). The energy from the light pulse is absorbed by the targeted chromophores, causing them to break down and be naturally absorbed and eliminated by the body. This process can help to improve the appearance of the skin and achieve a more youthful, radiant complexion. It’s important to note that results can vary and multiple treatments may be needed for optimal results.
Benefits of BBL Hero
BBL Hero laser treatments can offer several benefits, including:
- Improved skin tone and texture: BBL Hero can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots, and can improve the overall tone and texture of the skin.
- Reduces redness and inflammation: BBL Hero can help to reduce the appearance of rosacea, broken capillaries, and other conditions that cause redness and inflammation in the skin.
- Minimizes large pores: BBL Hero Laser Treatment can effectively minimize the size of large pores by targeting and reducing the appearance of the pigmented cells that contribute to their visibility, resulting in smoother, clearer

skin.
- Stimulates collagen production: Collagen is a protein that is important for maintaining the skin’s firmness and elasticity. BBL Hero can stimulate the production of collagen, which can help to improve the overall appearance of the skin.
- Safe and effective: BBL Hero is a non-invasive, non-surgical treatment that has been shown to be safe and effective for a wide range of skin types.
- Little to no downtime: Unlike other laser treatments, BBL Hero typically requires little to no downtime, which means you can return to your normal activities immediately after the procedure.
BBL Hero Treatment at myEvergreen MedSpa
During a BBL treatment, your technician will use a handheld device to emit light energy into the skin. This energy is absorbed by the skin’s pigmented cells and blood vessels, causing them to heat up and be destroyed. BBL Hero treatments begin with your technician cleaning the treatment area and applying a cooling gel to protect your skin and enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. Then the handheld BBL Hero device is positioned over the treatment area, and the light energy is delivered in short pulses. The intensity and duration of the pulses will depend on the specific treatment being performed and the desired outcome. After each pulse, your skin will be cooled to reduce any discomfort or pain. The process of pulsing and cooling is repeated multiple times until the entire treatment area has been covered. After the treatment is complete, your technician will clean the skin and provide aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding sun exposure, using moisturizer, and avoiding certain skin care products.

Is the BBL Hero treatment painful?
Most patients report that the BBL treatment is relatively painless, but some may experience mild discomfort or a warm sensation during the procedure. Your technician may apply a cooling gel or use a cooling device to minimize any discomfort.

The number of treatments required will depend on the individual and their specific skin concerns. Some people may see improvement after just one treatment, while others may require multiple treatments to achieve their desired results.
Is there any downtime after the treatment?

hyperpigmentation.
How long do the results last?
The results of a BBL treatment can last for several months to a year, but the exact duration will depend on factors such as the individual’s skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle habits. To maintain the results, it’s important to protect your skin from the sun and follow a healthy skincare routine.
Is BBL suitable for all skin types?
BBL is generally safe for most skin types, but it’s important to have a consultation with a qualified practitioner to determine if it’s the right treatment for you. People with very dark skin may not be suitable candidates for BBL, as the treatment is designed to target pigmented cells.
What areas can I treat with BBL Hero?
BBL Hero Laser treatments can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns on many different areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, hands, and arms. Some of the most common areas treated with BBL include the face, neck, and décolletage, as these areas are often exposed to sun and environmental damage, leading to pigmentation issues and other skin concerns. BBL treatments can also be used to treat areas of the body affected by sun damage, age spots, freckles, and uneven skin tone, such as the arms and hands. The specific areas that can be treated with BBL will depend on the individual and their specific skin concerns.
