BBL
Remove years of damage with BroadBand Light
At Seaside Skin Care, we’re always searching for the most effective, science-backed treatments that deliver real results without compromising comfort, downtime, or the natural beauty of your skin. That’s why we’re beyond excited to introduce BroadBand Light (BBL) therapy, the next evolution in photorejuvenation.
BBL Laser in Orange County, CA
BroadBand Light is the most powerful IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology available today, offering an advanced, dual flash lamp system that targets sun damage, pigmentation, facial redness, and more. Whether you’re looking to fade age spots, correct uneven skin tone, or give your complexion a radiant reset, BBL is a versatile, proven solution.
But BBL doesn’t stop at the surface. Clinical studies show that regular treatments can actually change the expression of genes associated with aging, promoting more uniform collagen production and long-term skin rejuvenation. Translation? Your skin not only looks younger, it behaves younger too.
Minimal Downtime, Maximum Glow
BBL is beloved for its minimal-to-no downtime and surprisingly comfortable experience. Most patients are thrilled by how quick and easy the sessions are, with many even popping in on a lunch break. And as always, your treatment is performed by Seaside’s trusted providers, whose expertise ensures safe, effective, and personalized care every step of the way.
From hyperpigmentation to acne scarring to rosacea and redness, BBL adapts beautifully to a range of skin types and concerns. It’s one more way we’re helping you feel confident in the skin you’re in. Because at Seaside, we believe beauty isn’t about perfection. It’s about empowerment.

what our experts say about BBL
BBL is one of the most effective ways to treat discoloration and restore brightness. It breaks up sun damage, reduces redness, and leaves skin looking clearer and more radiant. It’s especially powerful for anyone dealing with years of sun exposure. The change in skin tone and clarity is always so rewarding to see.

We’re here to move beyond the tired clichés of med spas – the clinical, the superficial, the surface-level perceptions. Because this isn’t about frozen faces or guilty indulgences. It’s about feeling great, inside and out. We exist to instill confidence. To lift spirits (and sometimes faces, too). To make people glow – not just on the outside, but in the way they carry themselves every day.
BBL FAQs
What can I expect during my BBL treatment?
The procedure is virtually painless. Patients can expect to feel comfortable throughout the treatment, but with a slight occasional pinch. Some have likened the sensation to that of a rubber band being snapped against the skin.
During the procedure, various wavelengths are used to target discolorations and lesions. These areas of pigmentation in the upper layers of your skin absorb light energy from the device, which stimulates cells to generate new collagen. In addition, photothermal energy works to reduce fine facial veins and other lesions that cause redness.
BroadBand Light treatments are safe and effective for any area of the body where you are wanting to see clearer, smoother skin.
What are the benefits of BBL?
BBL treatments require no anesthetic and they involve little or no downtime. As few as one or two treatments can reduce spots, smooth uneven pigmentation, help repair broken facial capillaries and veins, and reduce the redness associated with rosacea. Additional treatments will continue to improve tone, texture, and stimulate the dermis to produce more collagen.
How long is a BBL treatment?
A typical treatment can last anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes depending on the number of areas being treated.
How many treatments will I need?
The ideal number of treatments will depend upon your skin and the issues you wish to address. Our laser specialists will be able to advise the number of treatments reccomended in order to achieve your desired results.
