What is BBL HEROic™?
BBL HEROic™ (BroadBand Light – High Energy Rapid Output & Integrated Cooling) by Sciton is an advanced light-based treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin, improve clarity, and restore a healthy, youthful glow. It targets pigmentation, redness, and sun damage while enhancing overall skin tone and texture — with minimal downtime.
This treatment uses precise bursts of light energy to gently heat the skin, stimulating new collagen and promoting natural skin renewal. BBL HEROic™ can effectively treat a variety of concerns, including sun spots, age spots, redness, rosacea, and uneven pigmentation.
How Does It Work?
BBL HEROic™ delivers broad-spectrum light energy deep into the skin to target pigment and vascular irregularities. The light energy is absorbed by melanin (pigment) and haemoglobin (in blood vessels), allowing the skin to naturally clear these imperfections while stimulating collagen production.
The treatment’s integrated cooling technology maintains skin comfort and safety throughout the session, even when treating large or sensitive areas such as the face, neck, chest, and hands. Over time, the skin appears clearer, smoother, and more evenly toned.
What Does the Treatment Involve?
Your clinician will begin by cleansing the skin and applying protective eyewear. A cooling gel may be used to enhance comfort and ensure optimal light delivery. During the procedure, the handheld BBL HEROic™ device delivers precise flashes of light to the treatment area.
Most patients describe the sensation as a gentle warmth or light snap against the skin. Treatment sessions typically take 15–45 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. BBL HEROic™ is safe for various skin types and can be customised to suit your individual skin needs and goals.
What Can I Expect After My Treatment?
After your BBL HEROic™ treatment, mild redness or warmth may occur for a few hours. Pigmented spots may temporarily darken before naturally fading or flaking off, revealing clearer and more radiant skin underneath.
There is little to no downtime, and most patients return to normal activities immediately. Your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight following treatment, so sun protection is essential — daily use of a broad-spectrum SPF is strongly recommended.
Visible improvements may appear within days, with optimal results achieved through a series of treatments tailored to your skin concerns. Your clinician will advise you on the ideal treatment plan for long-lasting, healthy, and luminous skin.
