At Youth Lab we use this non-invasive treatment to treat age spots to redness, unwanted hair to freckles, with precision and care. Each BBL Light Therapy session is a step on your personal journey to changing your skin and improving your confidence.
What is Broadband Light Therapy?
Broadband light therapy (BBL) uses high-intensity light energy to penetrate your skin’s upper layers, working as a potent anti-aging solution. During your BBL treatment, we precisely deliver light pulses to your skin, targeting specific areas such as wrinkles, age spots, redness, and small vessels.
This absorbed light boosts your collagen and elastin production, creating smoother, more youthful-looking skin. BBL is one of the most powerful anti-aging treatments you can have at Youth Lab, offering significant, scientifically-backed results.
Regular BBL treatments at Youth Lab can help maintain and enhance the expression of genes associated with longevity in aged skin cells.
It might sound like scientific magic but BBL can reverse aging and restore your skin to a more genetically youthful state, pushing the boundaries of beauty and wellness to deliver effective results.
Services guide


What skin conditions Can YOU Treat with BBL?
We use BBL treatment to address a variety of skin concerns, including acne, rosacea, sun damage, fine lines, and uneven pigmentation. BBL uses a wide range of wavelengths BBL making it a versatile and customizable treatment option.
What are the benefits of BBL Treatment?
Broadband Light Therapy vs. Other Light-Based Treatments
BBL vs. Laser Treatments
Laser treatment and BBL both harness light energy for skin rejuvenation, but they differ in wavelength range and depth of penetration into the skin. Laser treatments use focused light beams for precise targeting, while BBL emits scattered light over a broader area, making it effective for treating large sections of skin. BBL is extremely precise in its control over the wavelength and intensity of light so it’s more effective than standard laser treatment.
BBL can treat a wider range of skin conditions compared to traditional laser therapies, targeting multiple concerns simultaneously.


HOW DOES BBL COMPARE TO INTENSE PULSED LIGHT (IPL) THERAPY?
BBL and IPL use light energy in similar ways, but they differ in technology and effectiveness. BBL is considered more advanced than IPL treatments, in terms of efficiency and the time taken for treatment, plus its more advanced cooling systems for your skin.
BBL is a brand of treatment, while IPL is a type of treatment. So, all BBL treatments are IPL treatments — but not all IPL treatments are BBL treatments.
We recommend a one-to-one expert consultation with our Youth Lab team where we can help you consider the benefits of different treatments. We’ll work with you to understand your specific needs and develop a personalized plan.
Broadband Light Therapy Results & Maintenance
You’ll see the results of your BBL treatment after the first session, and they’ll continue to improve with subsequent treatments. You may find smoother skin texture, reduced redness, and a more even skin tone following your series of BBL sessions.
The number of BBL treatments you need depends on individual skin concerns, your goals and the areas we treat.
BBL treatment is safe and usually well-tolerated, but you may experience mild side effects such as temporary redness or slight swelling. And you’ll feel warm for about an hour after treatment. As part of your personalized plan we’ll offer specific aftercare advice to minimize any discomfort.
