What to Expect During a BBL HEROic Treatment

Your BBL HEROic treatment begins with a clear gel applied to the targeted areas. Using a handheld device, your provider will deliver pulses of light to the skin. The light energy:

  • Targets Problem Areas: Breaks down visible blood vessels and pigmented spots for natural absorption by the body.
  • Stimulates Collagen: Heats collagen-rich areas, triggering skin renewal for a firmer, smoother appearance.

Patients often describe the sensation as a quick snap on the skin, which fades immediately. The treatment is designed to be comfortable, so no anesthesia is required.

BBL HEROic Post-Treatment Recovery and Care

BBL HEROic has minimal downtime, but here’s what you should expect:

  • Sensitivity: Skin may feel warm, like a mild sunburn, for 24 hours.
  • Healing Process: Temporary redness or darkening of pigmented areas is normal as the skin regenerates.
  • Sun Protection: Avoid direct sun exposure and use broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen for at least 72 hours post-treatment. Continue to wear sunscreen daily.
  • Skincare & Makeup: You can typically resume your skincare routine and wear makeup within 1–2 days.

Treatment Schedule

Most patients benefit from a series of four treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Maintenance sessions are recommended to prolong results and keep your skin looking its best.

-Tracy Edwards

BBL HEROic

I don’t often leave reviews, but I felt it pertinent to do so in this case… Jen at Ritacca truly cares about her patients and their skin. She is an expert at her craft.

I’ve been seeing Jen for many years as my budget allows and/or in between my traveling out of the state. Whenever I’m in town I book with Jen. I recently had a touch up BBL before summer with the new Hero. I have a Diamond Glow facial scheduled for next month. Bring on the summer glow!

Schedule an apt with Jen you won’t regret it AND BTW she is worth the wait — sometimes her schedule can be booked pretty far out, but it’s because she is that good 🙂

-Jennifer OConnor

BBL HEROic

I don’t usually write reviews but I have seen so much improvement in my skin and had a great experience with Jen that I wanted to share with others. Jen has been doing BBL (broad band light) on my chest and face for 3-4 treatments now and my results are nothing short of amazing!!! I was struggling with adult acne, hyperpigmentation from the acne, redness and premature aging. If you’re not sure about light therapy or lasers I definitely recommend scheduling a consult and seeing Jen. I highly recommend 10/10. She recommended product as well to help me maintain the results of the treatments. She’s very knowledgeable, her skill level and professionalism make you feel at ease.. Definitely recommend everyone to Jen, she’s the best at what she does!!!
