Acne treatment Forever Clear BBL
Acne treatment Forever Clear BBL™ - a non-invasive laser technique that destroys (sterilizes) the bacteria that cause acne inflammation and also restores the skin's own protective functions. It quickly relieves inflammation and leads to rapid, persistent acne remission.
Advantages:
- non-invasive
- no systemic medication and no toxic effect on the body
- suitable for sensitive skin, face and decollete area
Acne is a chronic, genetically caused disease of the sebaceous glands associated with their increased activity in response to stimulation by androgens.
How Forever Clear BBL works
Forever Clear BBL is a Broad Band Light protocol of the Sciton system that uses two wavelengths in sequence. First, blue light at about 420 nm penetrates the sebaceous gland and destroys Cutibacterium acnes (formerly Propionibacterium acnes) - the bacteria that sustain inflammation in acne. Then yellow and infrared light warms the superficial vessels and reduces redness, swelling and post-acne congestion.
It is this dual action in a single session that sets Forever Clear BBL apart from single-flash treatment: the method addresses both the cause (bacteria) and the effect (inflammation and redness) at once. High-intensity light from the Sciton BBL system sterilizes the elements of acne; after the course the number of breakouts is reduced and remission between exacerbations is extended.
How Forever Clear BBL differs from other methods
- Antibiotics and retinoids act systemically, require a long course and carry side effects; BBL works locally, with light, without drugs.
- Chemical peels exfoliate the skin but do not destroy the bacteria directly; BBL acts on the cause of inflammation.
- Treating a single element with a laser removes an individual papule; Forever Clear treats the whole area and reduces the frequency of new breakouts.
For pronounced post-acne, Forever Clear BBL is combined with fractional rejuvenation and professional home care.
Indications
The method is indicated for:
- acne stage I-III
- single and multiple inflammatory elements
- a tendency to breakouts, oily and porous skin
- rosacea with an inflammatory component
Contraindications
- pregnancy and lactation
- fresh tan and taking photosensitizing drugs
- skin cancer in the treatment area
- acute inflammatory and infectious skin processes (herpes in the acute stage)
- taking retinoids (isotretinoin) - discontinued a month before the procedure
How the course goes
The course usually consists of 4 to 6 procedures at intervals of 1-2 times a week; duration and frequency depend on the stage and extent of acne. One facial procedure takes about 20-30 minutes. There is no downtime: mild redness may appear right after the session and fades within a few hours. The first result - reduced redness and inflammation - is visible within the first day, and stable remission forms by the end of the course.

FAQs
How is Forever Clear BBL different from a regular BBL procedure?
A regular BBL procedure targets rejuvenation, vessels or pigment. Forever Clear is a dedicated anti-acne protocol: it combines blue light to destroy bacteria with yellow and infrared light to reduce inflammation and redness.
How fast will the result be seen?
You will see results within a few hours after treatment, as the redness of acne is reduced.
How many procedures are needed?
Usually 4 to 6 procedures are needed. This is individual and depends on the depth and extent of the process.
How often should procedures be performed?
The procedures are performed 1-2 times a week, depending on the severity of acne. Usually the course of treatment lasts 2-3 weeks.
Is it painful and is there any downtime?
The procedure is comfortable, with a warm tingling sensation. There is no downtime: mild redness fades within a few hours and you can return to your usual routine right away.
Can acne come back after the treatment course?
Forever Clear BBL sterilizes inflammatory elements and also restores the skin's immunity, so the results are retained after the procedure. Because acne is a hormone-related disease, new breakouts may occur in the future. To prevent them, our doctor will select supportive therapy according to the severity of acne.
Which skin care product do you recommend?
We use professional PCA Skin products, USA, as they allow us to select individual care depending on your skin type, duration and severity of the disease.
