Restore that youthful complexion you desire with Broad Spectrum Light treatments in Beverly Hills. Dr. William Harris and his team at Harris Facial Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics are expertly trained in this cutting-edge procedure that provides real, noticeable results. We strive to deliver the best Broad Spectrum Light Beverly Hills has to offer.
Broad Spectrum Light is an in-office treatment that utilizes pulsed light of different wavelengths to target pigmented skin and give the skin a more uniform appearance overall. It's important to note that Broad Spectrum Light is not a laser procedure. Instead, it treats a wide range of skin disorders using powerful pulsed light that can be filtered in a number of ways.
Acne, rosacea, age spots, scars, sun spots, fine lines, uneven tone and texture, and so much more can all be successfully treated with Broad Spectrum Light! Pigmented skin cells are destroyed as the upper layers of skin absorb the heat and energy from the light, and nearby superficial blood vessels close as a result. A natural wound-healing response is also triggered by the heat and energy of the light, which results in the formation of new cells and collagen.
Broad Spectrum Light improves fine lines, dull skin, superficial facial vessels, age spots (liver spots), redness, sun damage, and the effects of rosacea. Additionally, it can lessen the prominence of birthmarks and freckles. Every part of the body, including the face, neck, chest, arms, and hands, can receive the treatment. Broad Spectrum Light treatments are quick, comfortable, and minimally invasive. There is absolutely no social downtime!
Broad Spectrum Light treatments are best for those with fair, untanned skin. Darker skin tones are more susceptible to hypopigmentation, hyperpigmentation, and scarring because melanin absorbs light. For those with greater melanin, chemical peels and specific laser procedures are safer skin rejuvenation choices. Your initial consultation will involve a thorough assessment of your skin type and the best options for your individual needs.
We will apply a topical anesthetic and a soothing, cooling gel prior to starting your therapy. Although you will wear safety glasses to protect your eyes, you may still notice some bright flashes throughout the process. However, don't worry—these won't hurt your eyes! As we move the Broad Spectrum Light over the desired areas, you'll experience some warmth. Although this technique is not painful, more delicate areas, like the top lip, might feel some discomfort. The length of your Broad Spectrum Light treatment will depend on the area and problem you're trying to solve. One session, however, will typically just take a few minutes to a half-hour. As soon as you're done, we'll hydrate and protect your skin by applying moisturizer and sunscreen.
Broad Spectrum Light is a minimally invasive procedure, but you still can expect some mild redness on and around the treated area. A day or two of minor swelling is also possible. However, as soon as our Beverly Hills Broad Spectrum Light patients appointment is over, they can go to work and resume their normal activities. Areas of pigment will initially darken and then gradually flake off or simply fade in one to two weeks post-treatment. It is important that you do not pick or attempt to scrub away the pigment!
Following Broad Spectrum Light, you can anticipate younger-looking skin and skin that is more uniform in tone and texture. For several ailments, such as sun damage, age spots, fine wrinkles, redness, rosacea, and acne, you will experience near-immediate benefits. Your benefits from one or two Broad Spectrum Light treatments will last several months to a year before re-treatment is recommended. A minimum of three treatments per year have been demonstrated to produce lasting smoother, brighter, and more even skin, giving the appearance of slowing down or even stopping the aging process.

Broad Spectrum Light is not a painful procedure. The most discomfort some patients experience is a warm, light zapping as the device moves over more sensitive areas.
When performed by a licensed professional and after a thorough assessment, Broad Spectrum Light is a very low-risk procedure. There is, however, risk of hyper- and hypo-pigmentation of treated areas following broadband light treatment.
Cost depends on the area treated and the number of sessions necessary to achieve your aesthetic goals.
