What is Forever Clear/Acne?

Forever Clear BBL is a revolutionary acne treatment that uses Broadband Light (BBL) technology to target and treat acne at its source. Unlike traditional methods, this intense pulsed light therapy goes deep into the skin to eliminate acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, and stimulate natural healing. Developed by Sciton, the Forever Clear BBL device provides a comprehensive solution for those with acne-prone skin. It clears existing acne and prevents future breakouts by reducing sebaceous gland activity. This makes Forever Clear BBL an effective and long-term solution for achieving clear, healthy skin.

Why Choose Forever Clear/Acne?

Utilizing a combination of blue, yellow, and infrared light, this advanced therapy targets and eliminates acne-causing bacteria, reduces inflammation, and boosts your body’s natural healing process. The cutting-edge BBL (broadband light) technology ensures effective and comfortable acne clearance with minimal downtime. By delivering light energy deep into the skin, Forever Clear stimulates cell regeneration, resulting in clear, healthy, and radiant skin—all without the need for creams or medications.

What Makes Forever Clear/Acne Different From Similar Procedures?

One of Forever Clear BBL’s standout features is its non-invasive nature, utilizing gentle light therapy instead of incisions or injections, reducing complications and downtime. Specifically targeting acne, it employs blue, yellow, and infrared light to address the root cause. Suitable for various skin types, it shows quick results, often within a few sessions.

Step 3: Treatment

Forever Clear is a comfortable three-step treatment that takes as little as 30 minutes depending on the area treated. We applied topical anesthetic to your skin for 15 to 20 minutes. You may feel a quick, warm sensation as the targeted areas absorb the light.
Step 1: Skin is first treated with a Blue BBL light to eliminate acne-causing bacteria at its source, deep down in the pores. This can even treat upcoming breakouts before they emerge!

Step 2: Skin is then treated with Yellow BBL light to reduce inflammation and acne-associated redness to give you healthy, luminous skin.

Step 3: We then treat your skin with Infrared light in gentle pulses to initiate the body’s natural healing process, jumpstarting collagen production to heal acne lesions and scars.

There is usually only mild discomfort, typically no downtime, and most return to work the same day. You may apply makeup immediately after the treatment.

A sapphire at the end of the BBL applicator ensures skin remains cool and comfortable during the procedure. After the session, patients typically experience a warm sensation for about 30 to 60 minutes.

Step 4: Follow up 

Follow-up treatments will be scheduled as recommended by your provider.

Most patients need 4-6 Forever Clear sessions initially, followed by quarterly or semi-annual maintenance visits, depending on acne severity.
