Broadband Light New Jersey
BroadBand Light Therapy in Princeton, New Jersey
BroadBand Light (BBL)™ is a highly effective IPL (intense pulsed light or “photofacial”) therapy treatment that delivers bursts of light energy to improve a wide variety of skin imperfections including age spots, acne, sun damage, dull skin, and more. Dr. Hazen offers BroadBand Light therapy at her Princeton, NJ center as a non-surgical solution to address these conditions and help patients achieve radiant, healthy skin.
What is BroadBand Light therapy?
BroadBand Light therapy penetrates deep layers of the skin to eliminate and reduce the damage of the skin and signs of aging. BBL is used to address discoloration and freckles to give the skin a clearer, fresher appearance. BroadBand Light therapy is primarily used for the face but is also used on the neck, chest, back, or hands. Any skin that is often exposed to sunlight can be treated.
What BroadBand Light Can Improve:
- Age spots
- Sun damage
- Loose skin
- Acne
- Redness
- Wrinkles
- Freckles
- Dull skin
- Sagging skin
- Birthmarks
- Broken capillaries
- Facial veins
- Rosacea
How does BroadBand Light Work?
BroadBand Light uses intense pulsed light to warm the top layer of the skin, stimulating the cells and triggering them to produce collagen. The therapy also eliminates pigmented lesions and melanin to brighten the color of the skin. The end result is rejuvenated skin that no longer has freckles or unwanted pigment, making it smoother and younger-looking.
Key benefits of BroadBand Light
- No incisions or scars
- Minimal downtime
- Fast, convenient treatments
- Improves almost any skin imperfection
BroadBand Light - Treatment Details
You will be given protective eyewear before the treatment begins. Dr. Hazen will apply a cooling gel to offset the heat and keep your skin cool. The BroadBand Light device will emit quick bursts of light energy directly into the skin. Most patients report minimal pain, but a numbing cream can be applied if you are more sensitive. Treatments typically take approximately 20 minutes, but the exact length of treatment time varies from patient to patient. Dr. Hazen performs BBL photofacial treatments at her Princeton, New Jersey office.
BroadBand Light Recovery and Results
After your BroadBand Light treatment in New Jersey, your skin may be a little red, but this will subside over the course of the day.
During the next several days, your skin will have a healthy glow and will be softer. Be sure to avoid too much sun exposure over the next few weeks. For the best possible results, we recommend getting BBL two to four times per year.

FAQ
How often will I need Broadband Light treatments?
Every patient will be different, and during your consultation with Dr. Hazen, she will be able to tell you how many treatments you’ll need. In general, for optimal results we recommend 3 to 5 treatments spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart. After that, we suggest touch-up treatments 2 to 3 times a year.
Can I have BroadBand Light therapy if my skin has been tanned?
No. You shouldn’t have a tan when undergoing BroadBand Light therapy (this includes tanning sprays and lotions), nor should you have been exposed to the sun for a long period of time in the last month.
