BBL Heroic™ BroadBand Light

BBL Heroic – High-Performance Light Therapy
for Radiance & Clarity

At Dermatology Clinics Australia, we use the next-generation BBL Heroic™ device for powerful, non-invasive correction of pigmentation, sun damage, vascular lesions, and redness. As the most advanced form of IPL (intense pulsed light), BBL Heroic offers higher speed, intensity, and comfort-making it one of the most efficient treatments for restoring even tone and luminosity.

This light-based therapy is also proven to activate genes associated with younger skin, making it not only corrective but also preventive. It’s ideal for patients seeking skin rejuvenation with no downtime.

What Is BBL Heroic?

BBL Heroic (BroadBand Light) uses high-intensity pulsed light to target unwanted pigment, blood vessels, and redness in the skin. It delivers energy deep into the dermis while protecting the upper layers with a sapphire-cooling tip for comfort.

Unlike older IPL systems, BBL Heroic operates at faster pulse rates and covers larger areas more efficiently, making it suitable for both the face and body.

Why Practitioner Experience Matters

Dr Manoharan is one of Australia’s foremost authorities on light and laser therapy, with over 15 years of experience in treating rosacea, pigmentation, and photodamage. He also trains other dermatologists and skin professionals in safe and effective use of IPL systems.
