Sciton BBL Photofacial

Intense pulsed light therapy (IPL) gives our patients the ability to treat a wide range of common skin concerns. We offer BBL™ (BroadBand Light) technology from Sciton to create excellent phototherapy results. This treatment can be an ideal way to address skin aging and sun exposure by encouraging new collagen growth, eliminating fine blood vessels that cause redness, and removing melanin that causes dark spots and pigmented lesions.

Please contact us online today or call 972-810-3503 to schedule your appointment. Our patients appreciate that Sciton BBL intense pulsed light treatments can help them achieve a smoother complexion and more even skin tone. Wellskin Medical Spa has helped people from the greater Dallas area and throughout Texas feel and look their best with a full menu of skincare treatments.

Are You a Candidate?

Photofacial treatments can be performed on any area of skin with signs of aging, including the face, neck, chest, shoulders, and even the backs of the hands. They can be an excellent choice for women and men who want to:

  • Treat fine lines and wrinkles
  • Improve skin texture, including active acne and acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone
  • Tighten the skin to correct skin laxity
  • Treat skin discoloration including age or sun spots, spider veins, rosacea, and melasma

During your visit we can review all of your skin concerns and develop a personalized treatment plan for you. We offer a full assortment of skin enhancing treatments including BOTOX® Cosmetic, facials and microneedling.

About the Treatment

Photofacials create their rejuvenating effects over a series of treatment appointments. Most people will need 4 to 6 IPL treatments each spaced a few weeks apart to fully address their skin concerns. Each treatment takes about 20 to 30 minutes. We can apply a topical cream to numb your skin before the treatment to maximize your comfort. We also apply a cooling gel to protect the skin and protective eyewear if necessary. During treatment, the smooth surface of the Sciton BBL Laser handpiece is glided over the skin, delivering light in precise pulses.

Results

Within weeks, your treated skin should begin to feel smoother, with fine wrinkles and pores that are less noticeable and sun spots or uneven pigmentation that is lighter in tone. Results following IPL treatment will depend on factors such as your skin concern and the area being treated. Most of our patients have very little downtime following their appointment, with only some temporary redness or slight swelling. The goal of the treatment is to create a rejuvenated and refreshed skin tone that is smoother and more even.
