What is a BBL Photofacial?
BBL (BroadBand Light) is Sciton's advanced form of IPL — intense pulsed light that targets redness, broken capillaries, rosacea, brown spots, and sun damage to even out skin tone. BBL HERO is a faster, more powerful version, and Forever Young BBL is a maintenance protocol shown to keep skin looking younger over time.
A session takes 20 to 30 minutes. Brown spots darken and flake off over the following week, and redness improves with little downtime. A series of 3 to 5 sessions gives the best result for pigment and redness.
BBL is best for fair to medium skin tones; deeper skin tones need careful settings or alternative treatments. Pricing is per session.
How much does a BBL Photofacial cost in San Francisco?
A BBL photofacial in San Francisco typically costs $490 to $1,120 per session, with a series of 3 to 5 recommended for the best results on pigment and redness.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a BBL photofacial cost in San Francisco?
A BBL photofacial in San Francisco typically costs $490 to $1,120 per session. Adding the neck and chest raises the price, and a series of 3 to 5 sessions is usually recommended for the best results.
What is the difference between BBL and IPL?
BBL (BroadBand Light) is Sciton's premium, more precise version of IPL. Both use pulsed light to treat redness and brown spots, but BBL offers more controlled settings and protocols like BBL HERO and Forever Young BBL.
Is BBL safe for darker skin tones?
BBL works best on fair to medium skin and carries pigment risk on deeper tones. Patients with darker skin may be better suited to other treatments like Clear + Brilliant. Always have your skin type assessed first.
What should I expect after a BBL treatment?
Brown spots typically darken and then flake off over about a week, and redness gradually improves. Downtime is minimal — most people return to normal activities immediately with sun protection.
