BBL Photofacial & Laser Treatments in Lansing, MI

Customized laser and light treatments to improve pigmentation, texture, acne, and signs of aging.

At Aqua Aesthetics & Wellness, we use a combination of advanced light and laser technologies to improve skin tone, texture, and overall skin health. Treatments like BBL®, Moxi®, Laser Genesis, and fractional CO₂ resurfacing allow us to customize care depending on your concerns — from sun damage and pigmentation to deeper wrinkles and acne scars.

What Can BBL & Laser Treatments Help With?

Our light-based technologies work beneath the surface to correct visible concerns and activate your skin’s own renewal process. They can improve:

Sun damage and brown spots
Redness, rosacea, and visible capillaries
Acne and post-acne marks
Fine lines and mild laxity
Uneven tone and rough texture
Enlarged pores and dullness
Scars and vascular lesions

BBL vs. IPL: What’s the Difference?

At first glance, BBL (BroadBand Light) and IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) sound similar—they both use light energy to enhance the skin. But BBL is the next generation of IPL, offering more precision, power, and customization for superior, longer-lasting results.

Here’s how they differ:

Advanced Technology: Traditional IPL uses broad, unfocused light. BBL refines it with dual-lamp engineering and smart filters that precisely target pigment, redness, and texture.
Comfort & Control: BBL’s integrated cooling and adjustable settings make it gentler, safer, and suitable for a wider range of skin tones.
Speed & Efficiency: BBL HERO™ treats large areas quickly and evenly, delivering better coverage in fewer sessions.
Long-Term Change: Forever Young BBL is clinically shown to alter gene expression related to aging—helping skin act younger, not just look it.

In short: IPL treats. BBL transforms.

Fractional CO₂ Laser Resurfacing

For patients looking for deeper skin resurfacing and collagen renewal, fractional CO₂ laser treatments offer one of the most effective options available.

While treatments like BBL® HERO, Moxi®, and Laser Genesis focus on improving tone, pigmentation, and early signs of aging with minimal downtime, fractional CO₂ laser resurfacing works deeper in the skin to address more advanced concerns such as wrinkles, acne scars, and significant texture changes.

The fractional CO₂ laser creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the skin, stimulating new collagen production and allowing healthier skin to replace damaged tissue over time. This process helps restore smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.

What Fractional CO₂ Laser Can Treat

Fractional CO₂ resurfacing can significantly improve:

Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne scars
Sun damage and uneven texture
Enlarged pores
Skin laxity
Rough or damaged skin

Because the treatment stimulates deep collagen remodeling, results continue to improve in the weeks and months following treatment.

What to Expect from CO₂ Laser Treatment

Fractional CO₂ treatments are customized based on your skin type, goals, and the level of resurfacing desired.

Most patients experience:

Redness and swelling for several days
Peeling or flaking as new skin develops
Noticeable improvement in skin texture and firmness

Because the treatment stimulates collagen production, improvements continue to develop over time.

Is Fractional CO₂ Laser Right for You?

Fractional CO₂ laser may be ideal if you:

Want stronger skin resurfacing results
Have acne scarring or deeper wrinkles
Want to improve overall skin texture and firmness
Are looking for long-term collagen stimulation

Questions? We’ve Got Answers!

How many BBL or Moxi sessions will I need?

Most patients see noticeable improvement after 1–3 BBL sessions, spaced about 4 weeks apart. Moxi typically requires 2–4 sessions depending on your skin concerns. For long-term maintenance, many patients schedule periodic touch-ups once or twice a year. During your consultation, we’ll recommend a plan tailored to your skin type and goals.

What's the difference between BBL HERO and Moxi?

BBL HERO uses broadband light energy to target pigment, redness, and vascular concerns on the skin’s surface. Moxi is a gentle fractional laser that resurfaces the skin to improve tone, texture, and early signs of aging. Many patients combine both for comprehensive results, BBL corrects discoloration while Moxi smooths and refreshes overall skin quality.

Is BBL safe for all skin types?

BBL is safe for a wide range of skin types, but treatment settings are customized based on your skin tone and concerns. During your consultation, your provider will assess your skin and determine the best approach. Some deeper skin tones may be better suited to Moxi or alternative treatments, which we’ll discuss together.

Can I wear makeup after treatment?

For most BBL treatments, you can apply mineral makeup the same day or the next morning. After Moxi, we recommend waiting 24–48 hours before applying makeup to let the skin begin healing. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions based on your treatment.

Does it hurt?

Most patients describe BBL as a warm, light snapping sensation, quick and very tolerable. Moxi may feel like a mild prickling or heat on the skin. We apply cooling and can adjust settings to keep you comfortable throughout the session. No numbing or anesthesia is typically needed.

When will I see results?

With BBL, you may notice brighter, more even skin within a few days as pigmented spots darken and naturally flake off. Moxi results develop over the following 1–2 weeks as fresh, smoother skin is revealed. Collagen remodeling continues for several weeks after treatment, with results improving over time.
