BelleSante Brightening (BBL HERO/HEROic)

BelleSante Brightening

BelleSante Brightening harnesses the power of broadband light (BBL/HEROic) technology to transform your skin's natural radiance. This advanced treatment improves tone and texture while addressing signs of sun damage, creating a more luminous complexion that can be maintained year-round.

Reveal Your Skin's Natural Radiance With Advanced Light Technology

At BelleSante by Kristine Romine, MD, we recognize that beautiful skin begins with addressing damage at its source. Years of sun exposure, environmental factors, lifestyle, and intrinsic aging gradually diminish your skin's natural radiance, leaving behind unwanted pigmentation, visible blood vessels and textural changes. Our approach to skin rejuvenation utilizes Sciton’s BroadBand Light (BBL) technology to target these concerns with unprecedented precision and comfort.

What Is BelleSante Brightening?

BelleSante Brightening harnesses the power of the most scientifically advanced BroadBand Light (BBL) HERO and HEROic technology to transform your skin’s health and radiance. Our experts use this revolutionary treatment to deliver pulses of high-intensity light energy that penetrate deep into the skin, improving tone, texture and the signs of aging and sun damage without harming the surrounding tissues, leaving your skin brighter, as well as healthier and younger!

The precise light energy stimulates your skin cells to regenerate, promoting increased collagen production while eliminating unwanted pigmentation, decreasing both unwanted redness, browns, and sun damage. This comprehensive approach doesn't just address surface-level symptoms — it actively improves the health, quality, and age of your skin, creating visible improvements after your very first treatment, and those improvements compound with each comfortable personalized treatment.

Unlike conventional light treatments that require lengthy sessions and multiple passes, our BelleSante Brightening employs next-generation technology that dramatically enhances both your comfort and best of all, your results. The proprietary HERO (High Energy Rapid Output) and HEROic technologies allow for faster, more uniform energy delivery across treatment areas, addressing more concerns, with unprecedented safety in significantly less time.

The Benefits of BelleSante Brightening (BBL HERO/HEROic)

Our BelleSante Brightening delivers remarkable improvements with minimal discomfort or downtime, making this an ideal option for busy individuals seeking significant results without a lengthy recovery period. Other benefits of this treatment include:

Dramatic reduction in sun damage, age spots and freckles
Diminished appearance of visible blood vessels and facial redness
Improved skin tone and textural uniformity
Reduced pore size and smoother skin surface
Enhanced overall skin luminosity and clarity
Stimulation of collagen production for increased firmness
Subtle tightening effect on treated areas
Very comfortable (no numbing) treatment experience with little to no downtime
Can be used nearly anywhere on the face, neck or body

Your BelleSante Brightening treatment can be precisely calibrated to address your specific needs, whether you're struggling with stubborn pigmentation, facial redness, textural irregularities, or simply want to achieve a refreshed, rejuvenated look. Many patients report receiving compliments on their "rested" or "healthy" appearance, with others noticing the improvement without being able to pinpoint exactly what has changed.

Your Treatment Experience at BelleSante

Your BelleSante Brightening journey begins with a one-on-one expert consultation and an in-depth skin analysis with Dr. Romine or Sara Romine, DNP, FNP-C. During this initial meeting, we will examine your skin and take a detailed history regarding your health, lifestyle and goals. We will carefully evaluate your concerns and develop a personalized treatment plan just for you. Our BelleSante Brightening is a unique experience using advanced BBL technology, with multiple filters and adapters that allow our experts to achieve your unique goals with precision, safety, and comfort.

When you arrive for treatment, we'll start by taking a good history to be sure you have protected your skin from the sun and provide you with special eyewear for use during the procedure. Then, we’ll pass the BBL HERO/HEROic device across your skin in a sweeping motion, avoiding the “stamping” patterns common with older IPL treatments. You’ll experience only “warmth,” which is very well-tolerated. With our advanced techniques and the device’s powerful built-in cooling to minimize any potential discomfort, no anesthesia is needed. However, we do have ProNox (inhaled nitrous oxide & oxygen) available as needed for comfort.

Each area only takes a few minutes to treat, but multiple passes may be used to ensure consistent and effective results. Areas that once required 30-45 minutes to treat can now be addressed in as little as five to 10 minutes, more safely with superior results. Patients frequently express surprise at both the speed of treatment and how tolerable the experience is compared to older light-based technologies. You will leave with your ideal personalized KRMD Skin Care application so you are ready for the rest of your day.

Recovery & Results

Following your BelleSante Brightening treatment, you'll notice an immediate refreshed appearance, though the most impressive improvements develop progressively over the following days. Initially, targeted pigmentation may darken slightly — a positive sign the pigmentation will be improved — before gradually disappearing to reveal brighter, more radiant skin. This gentle exfoliation process typically occurs within 7-14 days (shorter with use of ideal personalized KRMD skin care).

Most daily activities can be resumed immediately, though we recommend avoiding intense exercise, excessive heat and sun exposure for 48 hours. Adhering to our specialized post-care protocol significantly enhances and speeds up your results while minimizing any side effects. We'll provide you with detailed post-care instructions and your ideal personalized KRMD Advanced Medical Skin Care products specifically formulated to support your skin's recovery and maximize your treatment outcomes.

For optimal results, we typically recommend a series of three to five “Getting Fit” treatments spaced approximately one month apart, followed by ideally quarterly, maintenance sessions, paired with our Exclusive BelleSante Skin Gym treatments allowing you to “Age in Reverse” and always be “Event Ready.”

Many of our patients choose our BelleSante Brightening as part of our Exclusive Treatment approach called the BelleSante Micro-Lift XO, which combines micro-coring (Ellacor) — for skin laxity improvement (the step just before a facelift) — with light-based technologies (BBL) and the application of powerful regenerative exosomes derived from day-zero stem cells paired with all your personalized ideal KRMD skin care for comprehensive skin health and beauty.

The BelleSante Difference

While conventional light treatments take a surface-level approach to skin concerns — often delivering inconsistent and suboptimal results — at BelleSante by Kristine Romine, MD, we lead through innovation and expertise. Dr. Romine's pioneering work with BBL HERO, including being the very first Dermatologist in the U.S. to get the new BBL HEROic device, provides our patients with unparalleled expert results. Rather than applying generic settings or one-size-fits-all approaches, we precisely calibrate every treatment to your skin's unique characteristics paying close attention to your overall health and lifestyle, delivering truly transformative improvements with remarkable safety and efficiency.

Our philosophy goes beyond merely treating visible imperfections — we're dedicated to fundamentally improving your skin's health from within at the cellular level. Each BelleSante Brightening session initiates powerful regenerative processes that continue long after treatment, creating sustainable improvements in skin quality, skin health, and skin age. This comprehensive approach exemplifies our core mission: providing expertly crafted personalized treatments that provide not just temporary results, but your healthiest, youngest, and most luminous complexion for "A Lifetime of Healthy, Beautiful Skin™."

The BelleSante Difference

Many providers take an overly simplistic approach to neuromodulator treatments, focusing on individual lines without considering the whole picture. This can lead to results that are unnatural or unflattering for a patient’s specific features.

At BelleSante by Kristine Romine, MD, we consider how each facial feature and muscle group works together to create your unique expressions. Dr. Romine and Sara Romine, DNP, FNP-C, carefully observe your natural facial movements and create an injection map specific to your anatomy. We often integrate neuromodulators into our Exclusive Treatments, like The BelleSante Skin Gym, to deliver comprehensive rejuvenation that maximizes the health and beauty of your skin.

Balance and proportion guide our injection philosophy. Instead of over-treating certain areas, we distribute neuromodulators thoughtfully to create symmetry and harmony throughout your face, neck and even beyond. Dr. Romine’s signature micro-droplet technique delivers exceptionally natural results, so you'll leave BelleSante looking like you, only better.
