BBL Acne Treatment FAQs

What skin concerns does Forever Clear BBL treat?

Forever Clear BBL is highly effective for treating a wide range of concerns, including:
+ Active acne
+ Rosacea and redness
+ Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (i.e. dark spots from previous acne)
+ Post inflammatory erythema (i.e. red spots from previous acne)

Will Forever Clear BBL treat my acne scars?

Forever Clear BBL is designed primarily to target active acne by eliminating bacteria, reducing inflammation, and preventing future breakouts. Forever Clear BBL helps improve post-acne redness and discoloration, but it does not directly resurface the skin to treat deeper textural scars such as ice pick, boxcar, or rolling scars.
For clients concerned with scarring or texture, we often recommend combining Forever Clear BBL with collagen-stimulating treatments such as Procell Microchanneling or MOXI laser for comprehensive skin renewal. During your consultation, your Advanced Esthetician will create a customized plan to address both active acne and any residual scarring.

Is Forever Clear BBL safe for teens?

Yes. Forever Clear BBL is a safe and effective treatment for teens struggling with acne. It is also a great treatment for adult-onset acne.

What areas can be treated?

Almost any area of the body can be treated with Forever Clear BBL. Although acne most commonly affects the skin on the face, back, and chest, our Advanced Estheticians can cater your treatment plan to almost any area of concern.

Does the treatment hurt?

Most guests find Forever Clear BBL to be very tolerable thanks to the device’s built-in cooling system, which helps maintain comfort throughout the session. You may feel a warm snapping sensation during each pulse of light, similar to a rubber band flick, but any lingering heat is quickly soothed. After the treatment, a cold compress is applied and provided for you to take home, allowing continued cooling until the warmth fully dissipates.

How long does a treatment take?

A typical Forever Clear BBL session takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

Is there any downtime?

One of the best aspects of Forever Clear BBL is that it requires little to no downtime. You may notice mild redness or warmth, similar to a light sunburn, for a few hours after treatment. Some clients experience a temporary “purge” phase, where existing acne may surface as the skin begins to clear. This is a normal and expected part of the healing process and subsides with subsequent sessions. Most clients can resume normal activities right away, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, heat exposure, and swimming for 48-72 hours following treatment.

How many treatments will I need?

For optimal results, we recommend an initial series of 6 treatments spaced 2 weeks apart. Occasional maintenance treatments may be required if lifestyle or hormonal changes lead to new acne lesions.

Can I wear makeup after my treatment?

We recommend avoiding makeup for at least 12 to 24 hours post-treatment to allow your skin to begin healing. Tinted sunscreen can be applied immediately after treatment (as long as the skin is intact) and can aid in protecting the skin from the sun while minimizing the appearance of redness.

Is there anything I should avoid before my Forever Clear BBL?

To ensure the treatment is safe and effective, avoid unprotected sun exposure, tanning beds, and self-tanners for at least 4 weeks before and after treatment. Discontinue the use of retinoids, exfoliants, and certain topical products 7 days before your session.

What should I do after my Forever Clear BBL?

To maximize your results and protect your skin, we recommend the following aftercare:

+ Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily and avoid direct sun exposure, as your skin will be more sensitive to the sun.
+ For the first 48-72 hours, avoid heat-inducing activities such as intense exercise, hot showers, saunas, and spicy foods.
+ Until sensitivity has fully subsided, refrain from swimming or exposing your skin to chlorinated water. Additionally, avoid using active skincare products such as retinol, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), or physical exfoliants. Only apply gentle skincare products.

Your Advanced Esthetician will discuss the full list of recommended aftercare steps and products during your consultation.

When will I see results?

Full results are typically seen after completing the recommended treatment series of 6 sessions. Some clients experience a temporary “purge” phase initially, where existing acne may surface as the skin begins to clear. This is a normal and expected part of the healing process and subsides with subsequent sessions.

How does BBL differ from traditional IPL?

BroadBand Light (BBL) is a more advanced form of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy. BBL delivers more controlled and customizable wavelengths, making it safer, more precise, and more effective. BBL also allows for greater comfort during treatment and often yields faster and longer-lasting results than traditional IPL.

Are there contraindications for Forever Clear BBL?

While Forever Clear BBL is safe for most guests, it is not recommended for those who:

+ Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
+ Have conditions like cancer, vitiligo, melasma, or epilepsy.
+ Have recently used Accutane or other Vitamin-A prescription medications.
+ Have a history of keloids or poor wound healing.
+ Have been tanning or using self-tanner in the last 30 days.
+ Are on anticoagulants or have a compromised immune system.
+ Have very dark skin tones (Fitzpatrick VI), as there’s a higher risk of hyperpigmentation or burns.

Your provider will review your health history and skin type during a consultation to ensure BBL is safe and appropriate for you.
