Forever Young™ BBL
Give your skin a luminous glow with Forever Young BBL photofacials. At our Ankeny clinic and spa near Des Moines, IA, we use these gentle, intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments to treat sun damage, dark spots, and more with little to no downtime.
What Is Forever Young BBL?
Forever Young BBL is a skin rejuvenation treatment that uses broadband light, an advanced form of intense pulsed light. The light gently heats the skin to stimulate collagen production, minimize blood vessels near the surface, and break up excess melanin that causes discoloration.
Several other treatments available at our location also use BBL technology, including Forever Clear® laser acne treatments and SkynTyte™ laser skin tightening.

What Does Forever Young BBL Treat?
BBL photofacials are ideal for treating several signs of aging, including:
- Sun damage
- Freckles
- Age spots
- Sunspots
- Rosacea
- Redness
- Fine lines
Many of our clients choose to enhance or maintain their results with regular HydraFacial® treatments and other skin services, such as microneedling.
What Are Forever Young BBL Treatments Like?
BBL treatments are very gentle, quick, and easy to undergo. Most people say each pulse of light feels like a mild rubber band snap.
What Is Forever Young BBL Recovery Like?
There is little to no downtime involved after a BBL treatment. You may have some redness or sensitivity, but this should subside in the next day or so. You’ll likely start to see a difference in your skin within a week, with continued improvement over the next few months.
Most people need about 3 to 6 treatments spaced a month or so apart to see their best results.
