BBL® HEROic™
The Florida sun can take its toll on our skin, creating brown spots, redness, and thinning. IPL has been a favorite solution for people who want clear, radiant skin without significant pain or downtime. Dr. Hasen offers an even better solution, BBL HEROic, at his Naples med spa for patients from Fort Myers, Marco Island, Bonita Springs, Estero, Cape Coral, and other nearby communities. This next-generation technology provides better results than IPL and is faster, with little to no discomfort and downtime.
What Is BBL HEROic?
BBL is an advanced light therapy that emits pulses of light energy. This energy penetrates the skin without harming it to heat up and destroy concentrated pigment in brown spots and redness. The heat also triggers a healing response that boosts collagen production to soften wrinkles and increase firmness.
Need Help Finding the Right Treatment?
When it comes to medical spa treatments, your choices are plentiful…and possibly overwhelming. Our interactive treatment planner can help. Just select the skin condition you want to address, and you’ll see a list of possible treatment options. Having beautiful skin has never been so easy.
Plan Your TreatmentWhat Does BBL HEROic Treat?
BBL HEROic treats signs of aging and sun damage that include the following concerns:
- Excess pigment such as freckles, sun spots, and age spots
- Redness from broken blood vessels, rosacea, cherry angiomas, and spider veins
- Acne and associated redness
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Mild laxity
Cutera® Excel V™ is an alternative to BBL that addresses the same concerns. Your provider can help you decide which is a better choice for you. For more dramatic rejuvenation, we can combine BBL HEROic with HALO® laser treatments.

Get to know BrandieWhat Is the Difference Between BBL and BBL HEROic?
BBL HEROic is the newest and most advanced BBL technology, improving upon the original BBL HERO. It makes treatments faster, more uniform, and more comfortable by automating with the following technology:
- Intelligent Control™ (IC) software adjusts the strength of energy.
- Skin Positioning System™ (SPS) prevents treating areas more than once (overlap).
Am I a Good Candidate for BBL HEROic?
HEROic treatments are safe for most skin types (I to V on the Fitzpatrick scale) and can treat the face, chest, arms, and most other areas of exposed skin. The lighter your skin, the better for BBL HEROic; treatments are most effective on skin that is not suntanned or darkened from a spray tan.

These treatments tighten mild laxity through increased collagen production. We offer the following minimally invasive treatments for more noticeable tightening:
Surgical skin tightening is always an option with a facelift, tummy tuck, arm lift, or another procedure.
Your Treatment Experience
These office treatments take only about 10 minutes, depending on the areas you want treated. Numbing medication is not needed because the BBL device has a sapphire crystal that keeps the skin cool. After cleansing the skin, your provider places shields over your eyes and applies a conductive gel. The handpiece releases quick flashes of light energy as it is passed over the skin. HEROic treatments are faster and more comfortable than IPL and other BBL treatments because they require just a single pass over the skin.

Treated skin will look and feel sunburned for approximately 30 to 60 minutes, but no downtime is needed. It is important to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen with at least a 30 SPF broad-spectrum sunscreen as directed.
When Will I See Results?
Full results take about 2 to 3 weeks to achieve, although changes begin right away. Treated vascular concerns will fade, while discoloration may intensify as pigment rises to the skin’s surface before sloughing off. As new collagen and elastin form, the skin will gradually become smoother and firmer for months.
