CARE GUIDELINES

BBL Care Guide

BBL delivers visible improvement with very little downtime, but sun protection before and after your session plays a big role in how well your results hold up.

WHY IT MATTERS

Why Aftercare Matters for Your Results

Because BBL targets pigment and vessels near the skin's surface, sun exposure before or after treatment can affect both your results and your skin's sensitivity during healing.
