BBL HERO at Coachlight: Advanced IPL Therapy in Ankeny & Des Moines 

BBL HERO (High Energy Rapid Output) by Sciton is the most powerful IPL device on the market. It combines two of Sciton’s signature technologies — Forever Young BBL® and Forever Body™, to deliver rapid, full-body treatments with superior results.

What BBL HERO Treats:

  • Age spots and sun damage
  • Uneven skin tone or redness
  • Skin laxity and dullness
  • Acne and acne-related discoloration
  • Fine lines and early signs of aging

BBL HERO can be used on multiple areas including the face, neck, chest, hands, arms, and shoulders, making it a versatile solution for full-body skin rejuvenation.

Transformative Improvement for Multiple Skin Concerns: The Benefits of BBL HERO

Clinical research supports the effectiveness of BBL HERO. A long-term study showed that patients who underwent regular BBL treatments over a 9-year span appeared not to age during that time, and looked 10 years younger than their actual age.

Treatment and Results Benefits:

  • 4x faster than traditional BBL treatments
  • 3x more power and 2x more cooling than previous IPL devices
  • Little to no downtime
  • Safe for a wide range of skin types
  • Comfortable sessions with visible results in as little as two weeks

How Does BBL HERO Compare to Other IPL Treatments?

BBL HERO sets a new standard in light therapy by offering:

  • Higher energy output for deeper skin penetration
  • Faster treatment times without compromising safety
  • Better results on pigmentation, texture, and tone
  • Superior comfort during treatment compared to older devices

Pairing BBL HERO With Other Treatments

BBL HERO handles pigment, redness, and overall skin quality, but it works even harder when it is part of a larger plan. Guests who want to address texture and fine lines alongside tone often alternate BBL HERO with the Halo laser, which resurfaces the skin at a deeper level, or with MOXI when a gentler, lower-downtime option makes more sense for their schedule and skin type. For acne scarring, enlarged pores, and laxity, pairing light therapy with collagen-building treatments such as SkinPen microneedling or INTRAcel RF microneedling tends to produce a more complete result than either approach on its own. Deeper wrinkles and scarring may call for Sciton laser resurfacing as part of the sequence. Every plan starts with a complimentary VISIA skin analysis, which shows what is happening below the surface and helps your provider decide which combination of laser treatments will get you where you want to go, and in what order.

BBL HERO Frequently Asked Questions

The IPL technique utilizes a broad spectrum of light, while BBL HERO employs a specific band of light to enable precise targeting of specific areas. BBL HERO is an advanced and expedited method that harnesses a high-energy output, promoting enhanced efficacy and efficiency. 

Its versatile capabilities address a wide range of skin concerns including age and sunspots, uneven skin tone, loss of firmness, pigmentation and discoloration, acne, fine lines, melasma, and rosacea.  

BBL HERO is safe for all skin types and offers unparalleled safety for darker skin tones. Its customizability and ability to tailor parameters specifically for darker skin tones contribute to its effectiveness. 

You can resume regular activities immediately after treatment with virtually no downtime or recovery time needed. 

While one treatment can yield results, many patients opt for a series of BBL treatments to achieve their aesthetic goals more effectively. 

BBL HERO uses intense pulses of light to stimulate collagen production, which helps to plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

This non-invasive treatment targets deep layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production, which in turn helps to lift and tighten the skin.  

BBL HERO uses advanced technology to target specific areas of the skin and reduce hyperpigmentation caused by sun damage. 

The procedure is easily tolerated and does not require anesthesia. 

The procedure carries a low risk and entails minimal possibility for complications. You may experience flushed skin for approximately 10-15 minutes. 

The application of makeup following BBL HERO laser treatment poses no concerns as it does not compromise the integrity of the skin barrier. 

To ensure optimal results, avoid excessive sun exposure starting from 4 weeks prior to BBL treatment. This includes avoiding tanning, tanning beds, and sunless tanning lotions. Additionally, it is recommended to discontinue retinol products like Retin-A, Differin, and Renova, as these can increase the skin’s sensitivity to light and potentially lead to discoloration. After the treatment, it is advised to continue avoiding sun exposure and sunless tanners for one month. Our aestheticians will provide recommendations for sunscreen and skin care products post-treatment. 

The positive enhancements of BBL HERO can last for years, providing long-lasting results. 

BBL HERO at Coachlight Clinic & Spa offers comprehensive treatment for all areas. The frequently targeted regions include the face, neck, and chest, while the hands, arms, legs, shoulders, and legs are also treatable. 

BBL HERO is an FDA-approved solution suitable for adults of all age ranges.

Oct 10 2026 my appointment date for facial glow2 with RF. I would say Maddie (if i spell it right).She is so wonderful and she makes me feel so comfortable the whole time. She knows exactly what my skin needs and I really want to thank her for that. She knows what she is doing and I trust her with my skin. And the receptionist that time are friendly and quite well knowledgeable when I asked few questions. Great job.!

It’s always a good experience with Laura. She remembers small details about my needs despite only seeing me a few times a year and my appointments are super quick! Im in and out in literally 5 minutes or less. The facility is always clean and staff is always friendly. The online appointment process could use some work but a quick phone call to schedule takes 2 secs. It’s on the pricy side compared to most other places in town but at least you’ll never have to worry about watered down product or having a subpar injector here. I highly recommend.

Got additional Botox on edges of forehead. Small lines filled around mouth. Makes me wish I got more done in my lips, but filling of lines is what I asked for. Great job!
