As the days get shorter and we spend less time in the sun, it’s officially laser season! This is the best time of year to refresh your skin with light-based treatments like Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and BroadBand Light (BBL). Both treatments are excellent for targeting sun damage, redness, and uneven skin tone, helping you step into the cooler months with clearer, more radiant skin.

Why Cooler Months Are Ideal for IPL and BBL

IPL and BBL work by using pulses of light to target pigment, redness, and other imperfections in the skin. For the safest, most effective results, your skin should be free from recent sun exposure or tanning. That’s why fall and winter are the perfect time to begin these treatments—your skin is naturally lighter, and you’re less likely to be outdoors in direct sunlight.

Benefits You Can Expect

  • Fade Sun Damage – Reduce the appearance of freckles, sunspots, and discoloration.
  • Even Out Skin Tone – Minimize redness and improve overall clarity.
  • Boost Skin Health – Stimulate collagen production for smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
  • Quick & Convenient – Little to no downtime, so you can get back to your routine right away.

IPL vs. BBL: What’s the Difference?

Both IPL and BBL are light-based therapies that achieve similar results, but with slightly different technologies.

  • IPL (Intense Pulsed Light): A trusted treatment for addressing pigmentation, redness, and sun damage.
  • BBL (BroadBand Light): Uses a comparable method with a broad range of light settings, allowing for customization to individual skin.

When to Expect Results

Most clients notice improvement after just one session, but a series of treatments provides optimal, long-lasting results. Over time, your skin will look brighter, more even, and more refreshed.
