Tone & pigment
Brown marks and uneven colour can point towards a pigment-focused light treatment. Texture changes alongside pigment may bring fractional laser renewal into the picture.
Sciton laser and light technologies
Laser, BroadBand Light and infrared treatments address different changes in skin. Explore their roles in pigmentation, redness, breakouts and loss of firmness before choosing a technology.
Book a consultationA guide to skin technologies
Colour changes and changes in skin texture have different treatment targets. A brown sun spot, an inflamed breakout and loose skin need different approaches even when they appear in the same area.
A laser delivers a specific wavelength. BroadBand Light uses filtered bands of light, while SkinTyte uses infrared energy to warm deeper skin. The target and delivery method determine what each technology can address.
Brown marks and uneven colour can point towards a pigment-focused light treatment. Texture changes alongside pigment may bring fractional laser renewal into the picture.
Diffuse redness and active acne have separate treatment roles. BBL Forever Clear has a light sequence designed for acne and its remaining redness.
A rough surface differs from skin that has lost support. MOXI creates fractional treatment zones for renewal; SkinTyte warms deeper tissue where laxity is the concern.
Compare the treatment targets
The cards below separate colour, fractional renewal, acne and laxity.
Tone, pigment and redness
Filtered BroadBand Light targets selected pigment and redness. BBL HEROic suits a colour-focused discussion about sun damage or an uneven complexion.
Resurfacing and early pigment
MOXI creates microscopic laser treatment zones for early pigment and rough texture, with untreated skin between them. Its role is fractional renewal.
Active acne and post-acne redness
BBL Forever Clear applies a sequence of light bands for active acne and post-acne redness. It addresses the breakout pattern alongside existing skincare.
Firmness and skin quality
SkinTyte heats deeper skin with infrared light while cooling the surface. It addresses laxity on the face, jawline and neck.
Colour and surface renewal combined
Forever Young / Luxe Skin combines BBL for selected colour concerns with MOXI for fractional renewal. The two energies address separate aspects of skin within The Edit.
Your laser and light appointment
Recent tanning can affect light treatment decisions. Bring details of earlier procedures and the skincare you use, including products that have caused irritation.
We examine whether the main change is pigment, redness, active acne or laxity. We ask how it developed and whether the skin is currently irritated.
We check skin tone and sun exposure, alongside medicines and previous treatment reactions. These checks help us decide whether laser, filtered light or infrared treatment can be offered.
We explain the selected energy and the skin response it can cause. You receive guidance on aftercare and sun protection for that treatment.
Consultation fee: £120. This is deductible from the cost of treatment if you decide to proceed with the recommended plan.
Book a consultationLaser skin treatment in London through Advanced Laser Treatments brings together options for visible pigmentation, redness, texture and firmness. Laser and BroadBand Light technologies have different actions, allowing selected skin concerns to be addressed individually or within a clinically appropriate combination.
BBL HEROic uses light to target selected pigmentation and sun-related colour changes. This can help reduce uneven-looking patches and support a more balanced appearance across the treated skin.
Light and laser pathways may help address selected redness, while BBL Forever Clear has a distinct role in acne-related concerns. Reducing the visibility of these concerns can support a clearer-looking complexion.
MOXI uses fractional laser renewal to support a more refined-looking skin surface. This may help where uneven texture contributes to a complexion that looks less fresh or uniform.
SkinTyte delivers controlled infrared warmth to encourage the skin response associated with firmness. It may help skin affected by laxity look more supported, without serving the same purpose as pigment-focused treatment.
Your consultation will identify which modality or combination may be suitable. Book a consultation.
Laser and light questions
Pigment with rough texture may lead us towards MOXI, while selected sun spots and redness may suit BBL HEROic. Active acne has its own BBL Forever Clear sequence. Laxity is a different concern, addressed by SkinTyte. We examine your skin before selecting any of these options.
Yes, separate technologies may address separate concerns in the same area. Forever Young / Luxe Skin combines BBL and MOXI within The Edit: filtered light addresses colour while fractional laser energy addresses surface renewal. We check whether both roles are relevant to your skin.
No. The published options for BBL HEROic, BBL Forever Clear and SkinTyte include one session or three. Their targets differ, and the condition of the treated skin helps determine the session plan. The combined BBL and MOXI option also has its own published prices.
The energy acts on different skin targets. MOXI creates microscopic treatment zones that can become rough or bronzed before shedding; SkinTyte heats deeper tissue while cooling the surface. We explain the skin response and care required for the technology used, without giving one recovery timetable for every treatment.
At our London clinic we offer Sciton laser and light technologies, each with a distinct role. BBL HEROic may be considered for tone, pigment and redness, MOXI for resurfacing and early pigment, BBL Forever Clear for active acne and post-acne redness, and SkinTyte for firmness. We select the modality, or a combination, after assessing your skin.
A laser delivers a single wavelength of light, while BroadBand Light uses a wider spectrum that can be filtered for different concerns. In our range, MOXI is a fractional laser, and BBL HEROic and BBL Forever Clear are light-based. SkinTyte uses infrared light. All of them deliver controlled energy into the skin, and we choose between them according to your concern.
It can be, depending on the technology. MOXI may be considered across Fitzpatrick skin types I to VI following individual assessment. Suitability for the other technologies depends on your skin type, sensitivity and concern, so we confirm it individually at consultation. Treatment settings are always selected for your skin.
You do not need to do much before your consultation. It helps to come with a clear idea of what you would like to improve, along with details of your skincare, any recent treatments and recent sun exposure. We assess your skin, discuss your goals and explain which pathway may be appropriate. You can book a consultation online.
