Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Forever Young BBL?
The Forever Young BBL is a specific BroadBand Light treatment protocol developed by Sciton that uses targeted light energy to address sun damage, age spots, pigmentation, redness, and the overall visible signs of aging. It has been clinically shown not only to treat existing damage but also to activate genes associated with more youthful skin behavior at the cellular level.
What results were shown on the Extra TV segment?
The segment featured two patients. The first had extensive sun damage on her chest accumulated over decades; after a single BBL treatment, visible improvements in skin clarity were apparent. The second patient had freckles that had clustered into larger age spots; BBL caused the spots to crust and flake off within days, revealing more even-toned skin beneath.
How does the Forever Young BBL differ from standard light therapy?
Beyond simply targeting existing spots and redness, research suggests that the Forever Young BBL protocol activates genes in the skin associated with younger cellular behavior, effectively encouraging the skin to act more like younger skin over time with regular treatments. This cellular rejuvenation effect goes beyond surface correction.
How many Forever Young BBL treatments are needed?
Most patients see meaningful improvement after a series of two to five treatments spaced four to six weeks apart, depending on the extent of their skin concerns. Ongoing annual or semi-annual maintenance treatments help sustain and build on the results achieved, as new sun exposure and aging continue over time.
Is the Forever Young BBL available at NOVA?
Yes. NOVA Plastic Surgery offers the Forever Young BBL as one of its most popular non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatments. It is performed by trained providers at the Ashburn, Virginia office and is suitable for patients looking to significantly improve their skin tone, clarity, and overall appearance without surgery or significant downtime.
