Notes
Sciton's BBL (BroadBand Light) hair removal treatment. This is NOT a laser. It is a premium IPL system. Part of the JOULE platform. Often confused with Sciton's actual laser products (Bare HR, ClearScan).
Overview
Sciton's IPL-based hair removal treatment using their BroadBand Light (BBL) technology. This is NOT a laser. It is a premium Intense Pulsed Light system. Sciton is a reputable manufacturer, but Forever Bare BBL uses broad-spectrum light, not a focused laser wavelength.
How It Works
Uses Sciton's BBL flashlamp technology with interchangeable Smart Filters to deliver broad-spectrum light energy. The in-motion technique delivers multiple low-fluence pulses for gradual heating. While comfortable, it is fundamentally IPL technology and typically requires more sessions than true laser treatment for comparable results.
Typical Uses
- Clinics already using Sciton JOULE platform who want to add hair removal without purchasing a separate laser
- Patients who prefer a gentler, lower-intensity approach
Key Features
Important distinction: Sciton makes BOTH this IPL device AND true lasers (Bare HR, ClearScan YAG/ALX). If your clinic uses Sciton equipment, ask specifically whether it's Forever Bare BBL (IPL) or Bare HR / ClearScan (real laser). The Sciton name alone does not guarantee laser treatment.
