BBL® BroadBand Light Laser Treatments in Portland, Maine
What Is BBL® BroadBand Light Therapy?
At Rejuvenations Medi Spa, with locations in South Portland and Falmouth, Maine, we are proud to offer BBL® (BroadBand Light) therapy by Sciton® - one of the most advanced light-based technologies available for skin rejuvenation. Often called the next generation of IPL, BBL® uses targeted light energy to address pigmentation, redness, sun damage, acne, and uneven skin tone. It also stimulates collagen production, helping to slow and even reverse visible signs of aging.
BBL® is gentle, safe for a wide range of skin types, and delivers results with little to no downtime, making it a popular choice for patients across greater Portland, Scarborough, Cape Elizabeth, Yarmouth, and Cumberland. Whether you want to brighten and refresh your complexion, reduce stubborn pigmentation, or maintain healthy, youthful skin, BBL® offers customizable options to meet your unique needs.
The Benefits of BBL® at Rejuvenations Medi Spa
BBL® is the world’s most powerful form of intense pulsed light (IPL). Unlike older IPL devices, BBL® offers enhanced precision and comfort, allowing your provider to safely target both superficial and deeper skin concerns. The light energy gently heats the upper layers of the skin, stimulating new cell growth and collagen production while correcting discoloration.
Skin Concerns BBL® Can Treat
Pigmentation, freckles, and sun spots
Redness, rosacea, and broken capillaries
Active acne and acne scars
Fine lines and early wrinkles
Uneven skin tone and texture
What to Expect from a BBL® Treatment
Your session begins with a consultation to identify your skin concerns and goals. A cooling gel is applied for comfort before the BBL® handpiece delivers pulses of light to the skin. The treatment typically lasts 20–30 minutes, depending on the area. After treatment, you may notice mild redness that fades within hours. Pigmentation often darkens before naturally flaking away over the next week, leaving behind a clearer, more even complexion.
Benefits of BBL®:
Quick treatments with minimal downtime
Noticeable improvements in tone and clarity after just one session
Safe and effective for face, neck, chest, hands, and body
Long-term benefits with ongoing treatments
