I’m looking into BBL treatment to remove dark spots and spider veins on my face, I’d like to know if is safe to do it (photo)

Hi nata1503 and thank you for your question.  As a board certified plastic surgeon I have found that skin care is an integral part of my practice and to this end I have spent a lot of time vetting various lasers and therapies to treat dark spots and broken capillaries of the face before bringing them into my practice.  I am a big fan of the BBL procedure which uses broadband light technology to reduce the effects of sun damage.  Because a BBL is not a true laser, it is a very safe procedure to do with virtually no downtime.  Please keep in mind that results are typically optimized when patients adhere to a personalized treatment plan where treatments are spaced 3-4 weeks apart.  Be sure to consult with a board certified PS to review your candidacy and discuss your treatment options!

BBL is safe but you must go to someone who is very experienced with darker skin types, otherwise you could have complications. Do not get it if you have been in the sun recently or need to be in the sun soon after.
