  • Uneven skin tone
  • Brown spots
  • Age spots
  • Redness
  • Acne
  • Rosacea
  • Acne-related redness

HOW SCITON BBL WORKS

Sciton BBL works by delivering precise pulses of BroadBand Light energy into the skin, gently heating the targeted areas. This light energy is absorbed by pigmentation, redness, or vascular lesions, helping to reduce discoloration and restore even skin tone. At the same time, the heat stimulates collagen production, which improves skin texture, elasticity, and firmness over time. The result is clearer, younger-looking skin with minimal downtime—making BBL a favorite choice for both corrective treatments and ongoing skin maintenance.

Coolsculpting for entire days at a time, seemed more like a spa or vacation day, than a procedure day. Jenna was the best and most professional provider I have ever worked with.

I just received the diamond glow facial from MD cote. It was my first facial. I loved the experience. I felt pampered as soon as I walked in the office. Everyone is so warm and professional. My esthetician listened to my skin concerns and recommended that we start with hydration and work our way up to microdermabrasion and different serums in the future because it was my first. I appreciated the questionnaire that asked about my skin tone and sun sensitivity. Jenna was warm, friendly and had a natural flow of conversation. I felt very comfortable with her. My skin looked amazing afterwards and my pores were so clear! (she even showed me all the gunk that came out at the end haha) highly recommend getting your facials here.

I've been coming here for a few years now. Started with Botox then other services like facials and fillers. The entire team is always professional, patient and courteous. They all work together like a well oiled machine. I've been pleased with EVERYTHING. The establishment is top-notch. It's not the highest but not the lowest but reasonable. Scheduling is easy.Happy customer so far. The main thing i have been pleased with over the years is... 1. They dont do hard up sells. 2. Dr. Vote and the staff listen. I had photos of what I like and dont like and it was 100% what i wanted. Its your face. Its important to be heard. I would highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

Rachel made my experience just great. All the staff seem to go above and beyond to helping their customers; my nurse specifically made my experience nearly painless and less scary. She did various techniques to get me distracted of the needle. The results are great too. She added enough to fix my gummy smile, which other places couldn’t fix. I am now a client and it’s worth the drive for me.

Dr. Cote and her staff have changed my life! I found out about hormone therapy during one of her seminars, and I am feeling better every day. Doc is knowledgeable, takes her time to explain processes and procedures, and has a funny, laid-back approach during her appointments. It's 5 stars for me!!

Explore our frequently asked questions to learn more about BBL, its benefits, and what to expect during treatment.

Sciton BBL (BroadBand Light) is an advanced light therapy treatment that improves skin tone, reduces pigmentation, and stimulates collagen for healthier, more radiant skin.

All three treatments use light to target pigmentation, redness, and signs of aging, but Sciton BBL is the most advanced technology of its kind. Traditional IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and Photofacials treat discoloration and improve skin tone, but BBL delivers more precise, customizable wavelengths with greater power and consistency. This means BBL can address a wider range of skin concerns, stimulate more collagen, and provide faster, longer-lasting results compared to standard IPL or Fotofacial treatments.

BBL can treat nearly any area of the body affected by sun damage, redness, uneven skin tone or acne. At MD Cote our most popular treatment areas are face, neck, chest & hands.

Yes. BBL is FDA-cleared and considered one of the safest and most effective light-based skin treatments when performed by trained professionals. All of our Master Aestheticians have extensive BBL training and regularly attend continuing education to stay up-to-date on the latest advances in settings to deliver you the safest, most effective results.

Most patients achieve best results with a series of 3–5 treatments spaced several weeks apart, followed by maintenance sessions to keep skin clear and youthful.

Patients describe the sensation as a quick “snap” of light with mild warmth. With the addition of topical numbing cream, there is almost no sensation during treatment. Treatments are generally well tolerated and require little to no downtime.

Some improvements are visible after the first session, but results continue to build as pigmentation fades and collagen production increases over several weeks.

BBL is great for patients with sun damage, redness, pigmentation, or early signs of aging who want smoother, clearer, more radiant skin without major downtime.

Yes! Combining treatments, or treatment stacking, is very popular and gives even greater results. Our most popular BBL treatment stack at MD Cote is combining Sciton BBL with Sciton Halo. This is a powerful treatment that not only evens skin tone by removing brown spots and redness, but also improves pore size, skin texture & fine lines.

There is little to no downtime. Some patients experience mild to moderate swelling. Brown spots may darken before flaking off, and mild redness may occur but typically resolves quickly.

With proper sun protection and maintenance treatments, BBL results can last for months to years. Many patients schedule regular treatments to maintain long-term skin health.
