Forever Clear BBL®

About Forever Clear BBL®


Forever Clear BBL® is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses BroadBand Light (BBL) technology to effectively target and reduce acne. Unlike traditional acne treatments that rely on creams or oral medications, Forever Clear BBL® harnesses the power of light to address the root causes of breakouts—bacteria, inflammation, and uneven skin tone. This treatment is ideal for individuals struggling with persistent acne, whether it’s active breakouts, redness, or post-acne scars. It is safe for all skin types and tones, making it a great option for both teens and adults looking for clearer, healthier skin without the side effects of harsh chemicals or antibiotics.

How it works


Forever Clear BBL® works in a three-step process, utilizing different wavelengths of light to deeply cleanse and heal the skin. First, blue light is used to penetrate the skin and destroy acne-causing bacteria at the source, reducing breakouts and preventing future flare-ups. Next, yellow light is applied to calm inflammation and redness, helping to soothe irritated skin and promote faster healing. Finally, infrared light gently heats the skin, stimulating collagen production and encouraging cellular regeneration. This step helps to improve overall skin texture, reduce the appearance of acne scars, and support long-term skin health. With consistent treatments, Forever Clear BBL® not only clears active acne but also enhances the skin’s natural ability to heal itself, leading to a smoother, more even complexion.

To maintain clear skin, follow a good skincare routine, use sunscreen daily, and consider occasional maintenance treatments based on your provider’s recommendations.

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and tanning beds for at least 2 weeks prior to your appointment. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily if you’ll be outside.

    Discontinue Certain Products:

    Stop using retinoids (Retin-A, retinol, tretinoin), glycolic acid, salicylic acid, or any other exfoliating or harsh skin products for 5-7 days before your treatment.

    Avoid using self-tanners on the area to be treated for 2 weeks.

    Stop Medications: If you’re on any antibiotics or photosensitizing medications, consult with your healthcare provider as these may increase sensitivity to light. It’s best to discontinue them 1 week before your treatment if possible.

    No Waxing or Hair Removal: Refrain from waxing, threading, or using hair removal creams on the treatment area for 2 weeks before your session. Shaving is allowed.

    Avoid Alcohol & Caffeine: Try to limit alcohol and caffeine intake for 24 hours prior to your treatment to reduce redness and inflammation.

    Health Conditions: If you have a history of cold sores, inform your provider as you may need an antiviral prescription prior to treatment to prevent outbreaks.

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily and avoid direct sun for at least 2 weeks.

    Keep Skin Clean: Gently cleanse your face with a mild cleanser and cool water. Avoid scrubbing for 3-5 days.
