Ruby BBL™ Defined

Performing a Ruby BBL allows us to precisely treat visible vessels, broken capillaries, spider veins, vascular lesions and discoloration of your skin by using laser energy. The treatment is tailored to match your skin condition and desired result. The Ruby BBL will restore your skin tone and color. Broken capillaries and other visible vascular structures will be gently eliminated from the upper layers of your skin surface. Unwanted vessels will be preferentially heated by the laser energy and become less noticeable. A Ruby BBL can treat:

• Rosacea
• Redness
• Facial Veins
• Telangiectasia
• Spider Veins
• Broken Capillaries

It is a very effective treatment option for rosacea, although there is no “cure” for this skin condition. The Ruby BBL treatment commonly provides relief of discomfort associated with rosacea, including reducing the “hot” feeling in face and cheeks. Ruby BBL treatments have also been found to assist in the irritation around the nose area associated with seasonal allergies by collapsing stubborn vessels in and around nose area.

All skin areas can be treated. Popular areas are the face, neck, chest and legs. Discuss your needs with us.

Procedure Description

Your eyes will be protected with safety shields or glasses. Laser energy will be delivered precisely to the area of your skin being treated. You may briefly feel a warm or hot sensation as the laser pulses are absorbed by the unwanted vessels. Your procedure may take a few minutes to half an hour depending on the size of the area to be treated.

There should be little to no discomfort, however it varies from patient to patient and depends on the treatment. There is no need for anesthesia and there should be no prolonged post treatment discomfort.

Post Procedure

Your skin will be pink temporarily but it will resolve over time. Any vessels denatured by the laser will be reabsorbed by your body over a period of time in a natural cleansing process. Most small capillaries will become invisible almost immediately, since they will no longer contain blood. Your healing time will depend upon your actual treatment. In most cases, there is virtually no downtime and you may resume daily activity immediately. You may experience some redness after the procedure.

It is important to follow post care instructions. You may be advised to purchase some skin care products and will be given instructions on how to use them. Your skin will be sensitive to ultraviolet light, and you must avoid direct sun exposure. You need to fully cover your skin or use a good sunscreen whenever you go outdoors.
