Protecting your skin from sun exposure after BBL Hero is non-negotiable for achieving optimal results and preventing complications. Here’s why and what to do:
Heightened Sensitivity: BBL Hero temporarily makes your treated skin more sensitive to sunlight. Sun exposure can lead to hyperpigmentation, uneven results, or even burns.
The Importance of Diligence: Strict sun avoidance is crucial in both the initial healing phase and the weeks following your BBL Hero treatment. Your skin needs time to fully recover.
Sun Protection Must-Haves:
- Broad Spectrum Sunscreen: Use SPF 30 or higher and apply it liberally and frequently, even on cloudy days.
- Protective Clothing: Wide-brimmed hats and sun-protective clothing offer extra defense.
- Minimize Outdoor Time: Especially during the hours when the sun is strongest, seek shade and limit your time outside as much as possible.
