Forever Clear BBL Killarney: The Drug-Free Acne Solution

Forever Clear BBL Killarney: The Drug-Free Acne Solution

Clear skin without creams or medication - for teens and adults.

What is Forever Clear BBL?

Forever Clear BBL is a drug-free acne treatment available at The Skin Lab Killarney. Using Sciton's advanced broadband light technology, this non-invasive procedure targets the root cause of acne breakouts - destroying bacteria, reducing inflammation, and clearing skin without the need for creams or medication.

Forever Clear BBL uses a unique three-light approach - blue light to kill acne-causing bacteria, yellow light to reduce redness and inflammation, and infrared light to stimulate healing and collagen production. The result? Clearer, calmer, healthier-looking skin.

How Does Forever Clear BBL Work?

Blue Light - Kill Bacteria

Blue light penetrates the skin to target and destroy P. acnes bacteria - the primary cause of inflammatory acne breakouts.

1

Yellow Light - Reduce Inflammation

Yellow light calms redness and inflammation, helping to reduce the appearance of active breakouts and prevent future flare-ups.

2

Infrared Light - Heal & Regenerate

Infrared light stimulates collagen production and accelerates your skin's natural healing process, smoothing the appearance of scars.

3

BHA Peel & Retinol

Every Forever Clear BBL treatment at The Skin Lab includes a light BHA (salicylic acid) peel to gently exfoliate and a topical retinol application to reduce sebum production - maximising your results.

What to Expect From Your Forever Clear BBL Treatment at The Skin Lab?

What to Expect From Your Forever Clear BBL Treatment at The Skin Lab?

The treatment includes low-level BHA peel (salicylic acid) to gently exfoliate skin and reduce inflammation. Topical retinol is also applied to reduce sebum production and increase cell turnover.

Before beginning the Forever Clear BBL treatment, The Skin Lab team will assess the area of concern to determine the
treatment plan needed. We will speak with you to discover which areas you want to treat, what concerns you have and how we can get optimal results.

During the procedure, you will be given eye protection goggles. Patients may feel minimal discomfort as one of our laser technicians applies the BBL handpiece to the surface.

The first uses blue light to reach the root of the acne-causing areas, eliminating the bacteria in the pores.

The process consists of three passes:

  1. The first uses blue light to reach the root of the acne-causing areas, eliminating the bacteria in the pores
  2. The second glide will use a yellow light to reduce redness and prevent future breakouts
  3. To complete your treatment, an infrared light rapidly presses the surface area in the third pass. This will stimulate collagen and initiate the natural healing process of the body to smooth out the appearance of scars.

Forever BBL FAQs

Most clients find Forever Clear BBL comfortable. You may feel a warm sensation and slight snapping feeling during treatment, but significant pain is rare. No numbing cream is typically required.

If you are tired of using creams, ointments or medication then Forever Clear BBL treatment is ideal for you. Though the results are temporary, they are widely effective and is available for a variety of individuals.

BBL treats acne by destroying bacteria with light energy, while medications typically work by reducing oil production, killing bacteria internally, or regulating hormones. BBL has no systemic side effects, doesn't require daily compliance, and can be combined with gentle topical products. However, severe cystic acne may still benefit from medical intervention alongside BBL.

The number of treatments you need are dependent on the severity of your current acne or scar tissues, but most individuals will suffice with 4-6 sessions. Once you have reached your desired results, they can last up to 4-months, however regular upkeep will maintain
this.

The novel treatment is extremely effective and favoured by many individuals with acne, however, it does require a series of sessions to treat the area and maintain results.

Forever Clear BBL can help improve the appearance of acne scars through its infrared light component, which stimulates collagen production. For more significant scarring, we may recommend combining Forever Clear BBL with other treatments like microneedling or HALO laser for optimal results.

Fortunately, the non-invasive treatment is renowned for its minimal side effects and downtime. However, due to the nature of BroadBand Light therapy, a slight, sunburn-like sensation could darken some areas of the skin and potential cause redness, bruising or swelling for a short period of time.

Our Laser Technicians are highly experienced in treating patients with a variety of skin-types, which is considered extensively during the consultation process. However, some skin types are more receptive to blue light (known as Opsin 3 or OPN3).

As this particular treatment is powered by blue light technology, it can cause temporary inflammation and worsen hyperpigmentation. In this instance, we would treat darker skin types with red light lasers opposed to blue light lasers. 

The number of sessions required to achieve optimal results varies and will depend on skin concerns, goals and expectations. On average, we recommend at least 2 sessions every 4-6 weeks.
