What Is BroadBand Light (BBL)?
BroadBand Light is an advanced form of intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy that delivers controlled bursts of light energy to gently heat the skin and target specific pigment and vascular irregularities. This process stimulates natural collagen production and cell renewal while breaking down unwanted pigment, redness, and visible vessels.
BBL’s versatility allows it to address a wide range of complexion concerns, including:
- Sun damage, brown spots, and freckles
- Redness and visible capillaries (rosacea)
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Acne and post-inflammatory discoloration
- Loss of firmness and elasticity
Unlike older IPL devices, Sciton’s BBL system features dual-light technology, rapid cooling, and adjustable filters for unparalleled precision and comfort.
How BBL Skin Rejuvenation Works
During a BBL session, pulses of light penetrate the skin’s surface and are absorbed by melanin or hemoglobin in the targeted areas. The absorbed light gently heats the tissue, triggering a cascade of natural healing responses:
- Pigment correction: Dark spots and freckles absorb the light and gradually flake away.
- Vascular reduction: Redness and broken capillaries collapse and fade.
- Collagen renewal: The dermis produces new collagen and elastin, improving texture and tone over time.
Dr. Attenello precisely calibrates the energy settings and filters to match your unique complexion and treatment goals. This allows her to rejuvenate multiple layers of the skin in one session, both safely and effectively.
Combining BBL with Other Skin Treatments
BBL can be seamlessly combined with other facial rejuvenation treatments for enhanced results:

Your BBL Experience in Beverly Hills
Every BBL procedure at Dr. Attenello’s Beverly Hills practice is performed or directly overseen by Dr. Attenello herself. Her calm, patient-centered approach ensures precision, safety, and comfort at each step.
Consultation and Preparation
Dr. Attenello begins with an in-depth skin evaluation to map areas of sun damage and vascularity. She reviews your medical history, current skincare routine, and lifestyle factors to create a personalized light-energy plan. Patients are advised to avoid self-tanning products and significant sun exposure for two weeks before treatment.
The Procedure
A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort. Protective eyewear is worn while the BBL handpiece delivers quick pulses of light across the skin. Most sessions take 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Patients often describe the sensation as a mild warmth or “snap,” similar to a rubber band.
Dr. Attenello’s attention to detail ensures each pulse overlaps evenly, producing consistent, natural-looking results.
After Treatment
Immediately after BBL, the skin may appear slightly pink and warm, similar to a mild sunburn, for a few hours. Pigmented spots often darken temporarily before naturally flaking off within 3 to 7 days. Redness or acne typically improves within a week.
Most patients resume work or social activities the same day. Dr. Attenello provides personalized post-treatment skincare instructions, including gentle cleansing, hydration, and daily SPF protection.
BBL Recovery and Results
Recovery from BBL therapy is minimal yet transformative. Typical timeline:
- Day 1–2: Mild redness or warmth. Makeup can usually be applied within 24 hours.
- Day 3–5: Pigmented spots darken and gently slough off.
- Day 1–2: Mild redness or warmth. Makeup can usually be applied within 24 hours.
- Day 3–5: Pigmented spots darken and gently slough off.
Results are cumulative, as most patients notice visible improvement after one session, with optimal results after a series of 3 to 5 treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions, 1 to 2 times per year, help sustain long-term clarity.
