BBL, or BroadBand Light Hair Removal treatment for unwanted hair is a non-invasive approach to reduction and long-term hair removal. BBL laser hair removal is specially designed to safely eliminate undesired hair from all areas of the body.* Because the BroadBand Light affects hair follicles only when they are in the growth phase, more than one laser hair removal treatment is necessary to destroy hair follicles that enter the growth phase next. During your consultation for laser hair removal in Clearwater, you will be advised as to the approximate number of treatments you may need. A full-body laser hair removal treatment consists of passing the BBL wand over your skin. As the BroadBand Light’s wide beam penetrates your skin, it is absorbed by the melanin or pigment in the hair follicles. The heat generated by the light destroys the follicle causing the hair to fall out. Unfortunately, Laser Hair Removal does not work on blond or gray hair.
