Why Forever Young BBL…


Looking for the best photofacial in Lawrence? Keeping up with the latest & greatest skin rejuvenating technologies can be a hassle, so let S.Thetics guide you! Forever Young BBL is a light system that quickly reduces signs of sun damage & aging. If you want to stay looking young forever (let’s be real, who doesn’t?!), then Forever Young BBL is THE treatment for you!

According to Stanford University’s groundbreaking study, which was later published in the Wall Street Journal, on BroadBandLight (BBL), BBL can restore gene expression of aged human skin with light energy. This light device manufactured by Sciton, the creator of BBL (Broadband Light), is FDA approved for treating pigmented lesions, and vascularity (rosacea), improving the skin’s overall tone and texture, shrinking pores, and stimulating new collagen over time. It is not your average aesthetic treatment that mimics the appearance of younger skin—it actually slows down the aging process at the cellular level.



Why FYBBL in January?

Your skin has been through a lot during the transition from spring to fall to winter. Dark spots and vascularity build up in protective layers of the skin. It’s likely been exposed to the sun, dry, and struggling to adapt. Luckily, the Forever Young BBL Photofacial in Lawrence can be that extra boost your skin has been begging for! Not only will you be able to achieve a clean slate before Spring Break rolls around, but you’ll also have an even easier “recovery” than normal! Avoiding the sun for 14 days after your treatment is essential to guarantee the best results (and not harm your newly rejuvenated skin).

Winter means spending more time indoors, so you won’t have to worry about overexposure to the sun but you will always need to remember to apply your SPF every morning. SPF is imperative every day, year-round. Check out our shop in the office or online for a variety of broad spectrum, medical grade ingredient SPF products, with brands including Colorescience and Elta MD. Still, being out of the intense summer sun will help you avoid unwanted swelling, redness, and tenderness. Don’t be alarmed if you see some darker spots appearing at the surface of your skin for 3 to 5 days following an FYBBL treatment. They will simply slough off or fade during those first few days!



HERE’S HOW IT WORKS…

The light energy gently heats the top layers of skin, accelerating collagen production. This new collagen firms and smooths skin texture, leaving you looking younger over the following months after treatment! It also targets the vessels that create spots such as freckles and sun spots. Let’s rewind a second for the full picture When you first sit down for the treatment, we will clean your skin and mark off any areas to avoid (such as moles & tattoos). Your skincare expert applies protective eyewear and a thin layer of ultrasound gel to the area being treated. We use adapters appropriate for the size and contours of the area we are treating. Your provider will then go over the entirety of your face 3 times with the laser.

Each pass of light has a purpose. The first two passes of light are low intensity and the base of the treatment, followed by the third pass which is higher in intensity and targets small visible vessels, pigmentation issues, and lesions. Finally, there is a pass of light we apply just to the lower half of the face that tightens the skin using a deeper level of heat that stimulates deep tissue for the best results. We will gently cleanse your skin once again, and follow up with moisture from our eye cream, serum, moisturizer, and sunscreen. We’ll go over aftercare and answer any questions you have and you’ll be out the door! All of this...and NO DOWNTIME! The best part is (that’s right, there’s even more!), you can get right back to work after we finish the treatment and even apply makeup.

The Forever Young Difference. |

What makes FYBBL rise above every other photofacials in Lawrence? Well, it’s not your average treatment and it’s not actually a laser, it’s a light device. It actually stimulates molecular change in the deep and surface levels of your skin. Forever Young BBL uses intense pulsed light (IPL) instead of lasers, which is why it can truly reverse the signs of aging rather than delay them. Plus, there are wavelength options, meaning your skincare expert will customize the actual treatment to your skin’s needs by choosing what wavelength of light you need to achieve the best results for your skin and concerns. Forever Young BBL is also way faster than resurfacing laser treatments, a session can take as little as 30 minutes (depending on the area we are treating). This treatment will not only be your right-hand man in fighting aging and a variety of conditions but will also save you time and money in the long run. After years of treatments, many of our clients find they prolong or even avoid the need for more invasive procedures or surgeries to stay looking young and refreshed.

Remember that Stanford groundbreaking study from 2012 we mentioned earlier, led by dermatologist Dr. Patrick Bitter, Jr.? It proves how Forever Young BBL changes the expression of genes that is associated with the process of aging. This means Forever Young BBL does not just make you appear younger or stop developing further signs of aging, it physically changes your skin at the cellular level.

By changing gene expression, a natural response occurs that effectively and safely reverses skin damage. In this study, increased elasticity and collagen production allowed over 1,000 genes to develop into more youthful skin.

  • “I had dark spots on my left cheek beginning to worsen and my skin tone was uneven, pores were enlarging, etc...all the things as I was turning 40. The experience was definitely worth it. My face is no longer swollen, the brown flaky spots are gone, and my skin is glowing. I wasn’t sure what to expect from the treatment, but the results far exceeded my expectations.”

  • “I've always had "good skin" but lately, I've noticed a lot of dark spots. The procedure was not painful. My dark spots became darker and then in about a week and a half they all came off. My face looks super clear and it also feels really toned. I am in my 40's but my face feels and looks like I’m in my 20's! I'm very happy with the results.”
