We’re thrilled to announce the newest addition to Aesthetic House and we think your skin is going to love it.
At Aesthetic House, we’re always looking for the most effective, science-backed treatments to bring to our patients. So, when BBL HEROic™ by Sciton, the most advanced BroadBand Light device available today, became available, we knew it had to be part of what we offer. Whether you are dealing with sunspots, redness, uneven skin tone, or skin that is starting to lose some of its firmness, this treatment was designed with real patient concerns in mind.
First Things First: What Is BroadBand Light (BBL)?
BBL stands for BroadBand Light, a type of light-based skin treatment that has been clinically used and trusted by skincare professionals for over 20 years. It works by delivering precise wavelengths of light energy into the skin, targeting specific concerns such as pigmentation, redness, and signs of aging.
Here’s how it works in simple terms: the light energy is absorbed by unwanted pigment or visible blood vessels in the skin, causing those structures to break down and be naturally cleared by your body. At the same time, the heat generated by the treatment signals your skin to produce new collagen and elastin. These are the proteins responsible for keeping skin firm, smooth, and youthful looking.
The result? Clearer, more even, more radiant skin, and over time, skin that genuinely behaves younger than its age.
What Makes BBL HEROic™ Different?
BBL HEROic™ is the newest generation of this technology, introduced in 2024. The “ic” stands for Intelligent Control, and that is the key upgrade that makes it stand apart from earlier versions.
Earlier, BBL devices delivered energy at a fixed output. BBL HEROic™ goes further by using smart technology that continuously reads your skin during the treatment and automatically fine-tunes its energy delivery in real time. This means every pulse is optimized for your skin, not a one-size-fits-all setting.
The practical benefits of this are significant:
– More consistent results from treatment to treatment
– Enhanced safety, especially across varying skin tones and sensitivities
– Improved comfort during the procedure, with advanced cooling built in
– Greater efficiency, so large areas like the back, arms, or legs can be treated in as little as 2–5 minutes
What Can BBL HEROic™ Treat?
One of the things that makes this treatment so valuable is its versatility. At Aesthetic House, we can use BBL HEROic™ to address a wide range of concerns, including:
• Sun damage & age spots – brown spots, freckles, and uneven pigmentation caused by years of UV exposure
• Redness & rosacea – visible flushing, broken capillaries, and persistent redness
• Dull or uneven complexion – restoring that healthy, lit-from-within glow
• Fine lines & early signs of aging – stimulating collagen to smooth and firm the skin
• Acne – targeting active breakouts and associated redness
• Loose or crepey skin – improving firmness through collagen remodeling (more on this below)
Treatment areas include the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, legs, and back – virtually anywhere that sun damage and aging tend to show up.
A Closer Look at the Skin Tightening Feature
Something we are especially excited about with BBL HEROic™ is its skin tightening capability and it is worth taking a moment to explain how this works.
When the light energy penetrates the deeper layers of your skin, it creates a controlled warming effect that causes existing collagen fibers to contract and, over time, stimulates the growth of new collagen. More collagen means skin that feels firmer, looks more lifted, and has improved texture and elasticity.
This is why we view BBL HEROic™ not just as a corrective treatment, but as a long-term skin health investment.
Tracking Your Progress with Our Aura 3D Imaging Camera
At Aesthetic House, we use the Aura 3D Imaging System to take the guesswork out of tracking your results. Before your first treatment, Aura captures a detailed, three-dimensional image of your skin mapping texture, pigmentation, redness, and more. After each session, we rescan and compare, giving you a clear, side-by-side look at how your skin is improving over time.
Unlike standard photos, Aura delivers objective, measurable data every visit so every recommendation we make is backed by real results, not just a visual impression.
Is BBL HEROic™ Right for You?
This treatment is a great fit for patients who:
– Have visible sun damage, age spots, or uneven skin tone
– Deal with redness, rosacea, or visible vessels
– Are noticing early signs of aging such as fine lines or mild laxity
– Want to maintain long-term skin health and a youthful appearance
– Prefer a treatment with little to no downtime
BBL HEROic™ is designed to work across a range of skin types, but the best way to know if it’s right for your specific skin is to have a conversation with one of our providers.
