Advanced Skin Rejuvenation Using BroadBand Light Technology in Oklahoma City, OK

Photofacial is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment designed to address a variety of skin concerns using the power of light. In this procedure, we employ the Sciton BBL (BroadBand Light) technology, which works by delivering light energy that subtly heats the upper layers of the skin. By absorbing heat, the targeted areas stimulate skin cells to regenerate, helping to restore the skin to its natural beauty. The result is clearer, smoother, more vibrant, and younger-looking skin. Sciton BBL technology is particularly effective in treating age and sun spots, small facial veins, rosacea, acne, signs of aging, and loss of skin firmness. It can be used on the face, neck, chest, hands, and other areas of the body. This treatment is suitable for individuals looking for a non-invasive solution to improve their skin’s appearance and health. Results can be seen shortly after treatment, with the skin’s appearance continuing to improve in the following weeks.

Benefits of Photofacial

FAQ's

A photofacial with Sciton BroadBand Light (BBL) is a great option for individuals looking to improve skin tone, reduce sun damage, or address concerns such as redness, pigmentation, age spots, broken capillaries, or uneven texture. It works well on lighter to medium skin tones and is commonly performed on the face, neck, chest, and hands. The best candidates are those with realistic expectations who want to improve the overall health and appearance of their skin without significant downtime. A consultation with our providers will determine if this treatment is right for your specific skin type and goals.

Many patients notice brighter, more even skin within a week of their first photofacial treatment. Pigmented spots often darken temporarily and then naturally slough off over the next 7–14 days. Redness and broken blood vessels typically begin to fade in the weeks following treatment. For optimal improvement, a series of treatments may be recommended, with results continuing to develop as collagen production is stimulated.

Results from a Sciton BBL photofacial can last several months or longer, depending on your skin condition, lifestyle, and skincare routine. Sun protection is key to maintaining your results, as new pigmentation and redness can develop with UV exposure. Many patients choose to schedule maintenance treatments once or twice per year to keep their skin clear, youthful, and refreshed.

One of the biggest advantages of BBL photofacials is minimal downtime. Most patients experience mild redness that resolves within a few hours, and pigmentation spots may temporarily darken before flaking away. Some may experience slight swelling or sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn, but these effects typically fade quickly. Makeup can usually be applied the next day. Side effects are rare when the treatment is performed by trained professionals.

Before your photofacial, avoid sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners for at least two weeks, as treated skin should be as close to its natural tone as possible. Discontinue retinoids or other harsh skincare products a few days prior to treatment, as advised by your provider. After treatment, use gentle skincare and avoid hot tubs, saunas, and vigorous exercise for the first 24 hours. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays. Our team will provide a personalized pre- and post-care plan to maximize your results.

During your Sciton BBL photofacial, your provider will apply a cooling gel and protective eyewear to keep you comfortable and safe. The handpiece delivers pulses of light energy to targeted areas of your skin, which may feel like quick snaps of a rubber band. Treatment sessions typically take 20–45 minutes depending on the area being treated. Most patients tolerate the procedure well with minimal discomfort, and you can return to your normal activities right after.
