3 Things to Remember About The BB Glow Treatment

BB glow is a minimally invasive treatment that involves introducing a tinted pigment into your skin. Your doctor will use a tiny needle to penetrate your skin and inject you with the tinted chemical agent. The BB glow Pittsboro treatment stimulates the production of proteins that support healthy skin, like collagen and elastin, and promotes the rejuvenation of your skin. 

BB glow facial serum can help make skin discolorations even, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, hydrate your skin, and make your skin more glowing and radiant.

Consequently, below are a few things to remember about BB glow treatment.

1. How the BB glow treatment works

The first step in the treatment procedure involves thoroughly cleaning your skin to remove the debris, dirt, and oil on its surface. Often, the debris, dirt, and oil in your skin get trapped by your hair.

Your dermatologist then applies a gel for exfoliating your skin. An exfoliating solution also assists in removing debris like dead skin cells that may have remained in your skin after the initial cleaning. Removal of dead skin cells and unclogging your skin’s pores can help promote the absorption of the BB glow facial serum.

Your dermatologist may also apply a toner to your skin, essential to establish the right skin pH, reduce redness, and hydrate your skin.

Depending on your skin, you may also receive a booster serum to improve your treatment’s efficacy. Your dermatologist then chooses a BB glow serum according to your preferred shade, which is injected into your skin thanks to micro-needling technology. You can select your serum shade depending on your complexion, whether you have a bright skin complexion, a medium skin complexion, a brown skin or bronze skin complexion, a normal skin complexion, or a deep skin complexion.

Your skin care specialist may cover your face with a hydrating mask to prevent the faster drying out of the serum and allow more time for the soothing and hydrating effects to get deeper into the skin.

2. The right candidate for BB glow treatment

You may be a good candidate for BB glow treatment if you have premature signs of aging, such as age spots, acne scars, sagging skin, and uneven skin tone and texture.

The BB glow serum enriches your skin with essential nutrients, minimizes pores, promotes skin hydration, and reduces scars, wrinkles, fine lines, and inflammation.

You may not be the right candidate for the BB glow if you have skin infections, are prone to allergic reactions, or are pregnant.

3. BB glow treatment time

Preparing your skin and performing BB glow treatment takes about an hour. After one or two treatment sessions, you may start seeing your desired facial results. However, you may need to go for about four treatment sessions after every few weeks to ensure your results last longer. Also, go for BB glow maintenance treatment after every four months.

After BB glow facial treatment, your dermatologist will require that you observe proper maintenance and aftercare. That may involve avoiding hot baths, physically demanding exercises, applying makeup, sunbathing, swimming, washing your face, eating spicy food, and harsh soaps.
