Sciton BBL® HEROic™️
Has your love of the sun finally caught up to you, leaving you with unwanted pigmentation, dark spots or other signs of aging? The Sciton BBL HEROic treatment can quickly and easily diminish telltale signs of sun exposure, giving you beautiful skin from head to toe.
How BBL HEROic Works
Sciton BBL HEROic uses IPL to treat the skin. The device’s handpiece emits quick pulses of broad-spectrum visible and infrared light across the skin’s upper layers, targeting specific areas. By promoting the body’s natural healing process and boosting collagen production, Sciton BBL HEROic effectively addresses sun damage, age spots, redness, and other signs of aging.
Conditions Treated with BBL HEROic
Pigmented Lesions
Sciton BBL HEROic utilizes broadband light (BBL) technology to target melanin-rich cells in the skin. The melanin absorbs the light energy, triggering biological processes that destroy the targeted cells. Within days, the body destroys and eliminates the melanin-containing cells. As this process unfolds, any pigmented lesions, such as sunspots and age spots, darken and eventually flake off or are reabsorbed by the body, leading to a clearer and more even skin tone.
Additionally, the controlled heat generated by the light stimulates fibroblasts in the dermal layer, promoting the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. This enhances skin elasticity and supports overall skin rejuvenation.

Facial Vessels and Redness
Sciton BBL HEROic utilizes broadband light (BBL) technology to target both hemoglobin in blood vessels and melanin in the skin. This targeted light absorption generates heat, triggering a two-part process.
First, the heat collapses the walls of blood vessels containing oxyhemoglobin, leading to their reabsorption by the body. This reduces the appearance of redness on the skin’s surface.
Second, the thermal energy stimulates fibroblasts in the dermal layer to produce new collagen and elastin fibers, which improves skin elasticity and firmness, while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Signs of Aging
Sciton BBL HEROic uses broadband light (BBL) technology to deliver controlled pulses of light energy to the skin. This light penetrates the dermal layers, generating heat that stimulates fibroblasts and triggers the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. The increase in these essential proteins improves skin elasticity and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Additionally, the thermal energy promotes a smoother, more youthful skin texture by encouraging cellular turnover and rejuvenation.

Skin Tone and Texture
BBL HEROic addresses uneven skin tone and rough texture by targeting areas with excess melanin and vascular irregularities. The light energy heats pigmented cells, causing them to break down and be naturally reabsorbed by the body. This reduces hyperpigmentation, sunspots, and age spots. Simultaneously, the heat stimulates the dermis to initiate a healing response, which smooths out rough patches and refines the overall texture of the skin.

Acne
BBL HEROic effectively combats active acne by using light wavelengths that target and eliminate acne-causing bacteria, reducing inflammation and the occurrence of breakouts.

Overall Skin Rejuvenation
For comprehensive skin rejuvenation, BBL HEROic works by delivering light energy that promotes the regeneration of healthy skin cells and boosts collagen production. This technology helps fade imperfections like fine lines, redness, pigmentation, and uneven texture, giving the skin a more radiant and youthful appearance. The treatment is non-invasive and encourages the body’s natural healing mechanisms, resulting in healthier, rejuvenated skin with minimal downtime.

Sciton BBL HEROic Procedure
During your treatment session, the BBL handpiece is passed over the target areas. You will feel a warming sensation with each flash of light. The handpiece incorporates a cooling plate that keeps the surface of your skin comfortable throughout treatment and does not require a numbing cream. Each body part takes only minutes to treat.
Right after treatment, the pigmented or vascular lesions will darken, confirming that the light has reached its intended target, indicating an effective treatment session. No downtime is required after treatment. You can immediately resume your normal routine, as long as you stay out of direct sun exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions About BBL HEROic
How does Sciton BBL HEROic differ from BBL HERO?
Sciton BBL HEROic, with its revolutionary Intelligent Control (IC) and Skin Positioning System™ (SPS™) technology, empowers providers to effortlessly deliver highly effective treatments for every patient. HEROic’s automated technology reduces the overall treatment time, automates pulse placement to prevent issues like striping and pulse stacking, enhances patient comfort, and delivers exceptional patient outcomes for patients with various skin conditions.
What skin types can be treated with Sciton BBL HEROic?
With HEROic, skin types I-V (using the Fitzpatrick scale) can be treated.
What areas can be treated with BBL HEROic?
BBL HEROic can be used on most areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, arms, hands, and back. It’s especially popular for the face and other areas exposed to the sun.
How long does a BBL HEROic session take?
Treatment sessions typically last between 15-30 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated. With HEROic’s high-speed technology, sessions are faster than traditional BBL treatments.
What aftercare is needed following a BBL HEROic treatment?
After treatment, it’s essential to keep the skin moisturized and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily. Avoid direct sun exposure and any activities that could cause excessive heat or irritation in the treated area for at least a few days.
How many treatments are needed?
The number of treatments varies based on individual skin concerns and goals. Many people see visible results after just one session, but a series of 3 treatments is typically recommended for optimal results.
Is there any downtime after treatment?
One of the benefits of BBL HEROic is minimal to no downtime. Patients may experience some redness or mild swelling immediately after the treatment, but these effects usually subside within a few hours. Most patients can resume their daily activities right away.
When will I see results from BBL HEROic?
Some improvements may be visible immediately, and results typically continue to develop over the following weeks as the skin regenerates. The full benefits are usually seen within 2-4 weeks post-treatment.
Are the results of BBL HEROic permanent?
While BBL HEROic can offer long-lasting results, it does not stop the natural aging process or the effects of sun exposure. Regular treatments and a good skincare regimen, including sunscreen, can help prolong results.
