Permanent makeup can be performed on different areas: eyebrows, eyes, lips, scalp, etc. But did you know that you can actually do non-surgical treatment to add a glowing look to your face and even the skin tone?
BB Glow is a trendy semi-permanent treatment that guarantees a perfect skin tone. This procedure is aimed not only at toning imperfections but also at facial rejuvenation, radiance and freshness. Also, it is able to even out tone and provide a lifting effect.
High-quality serums adjust to the color of the skin and mask imperfections. The skin is shining after the procedure.
Bb Glow is revitalized and moisturized skin for up to 6 months without actually having to put on makeup.
What is BB Glow facial?
BB Glow comes for Blemish Base Cream (BB Cream). It’s the most modern treatment of Asian cosmetologists aimed at making the face skin bright and healthy in a safe manner.
BB Glow is an intensive semi-permanent foundation treatment where active ingredients are injected into the facial skin to provide a flawless, natural look and minimize pores.
How is BB Glow performed?
BB Glow is performed with BB Glow pigment, a micro-needling machine, and an LED lamp. Pigment serum is painlessly and effectively injected into the upper layers of the epidermis without penetrating into the deep layers of the epidermis. Vessels are absent in the epidermis – which means that the color will fade slowly. This skin layer renews every 30-60 days (depending on the age).
BB Glow is a small ampoule containing a pigment + active ingredients and vitamins which enhance the skin tone and make it even more attractive and good-looking.

BB Glow Indications & Contraindications
The BB Glow procedure has some indications as well as restrictions. Let’s find out what they are.
Indications
1. Dull, unhealthy, and uneven skin tone.
Today, most people don’t pay enough attention to their skin because we are always in a hurry, and we are always late. We forget to take vitamins which are necessary for our health. As a result, our skin needs some support. BB Glow protects our skin and fills it with active components (like collagen) and extra vitamins for its brightness.
2. Freckles.
Someone loves them, someone doesn’t. Someone tries to camouflage them as much as possible. They become brighter in summer and lighten during the rest part of the year. BB Glow can cover and lighten up freckles, but can’t take them away completely.
3. Hyper-pigmentation, pigmentation and age spots.
Any kind of pigmentation means melanin. BB Glow lightens it up.
4. Post-acne.
Post-acne spots are a problem of almost any adult since we all have (or used to have) acne in our teen-age. Today, permanent makeup artists have the possibility to even the skin by means of the BB Glow procedure.
5. Age wrinkles.
BB Glow is perfect to be performed on the skin both with age & mimic wrinkles. The micro-needling machine has a vibration effect, so it helps an artist to even the skin tone.
6. Enlarged, large pores.
The main part here is PH balance. All the BB Glow leaves extracts and active ingredients awaken the skin and fill it with vitamins. The face looks hydrated again.
7. Oily skin.
Some people try to get rid of the oily effect by means of alcohol cleansers or alcohol wipes. It’s not correct to use them here because the result will be even worse. BB Glow works perfectly here as well.
8. Dark under-eye area.
The serum kit usually consists of 6 colors from the lightest to the darkest. So, the artists compare the under-eye area and pigment colors, choose the lighter one, and insert it with the micro-needling machine.
Contraindications
1. Acne.
Acne means inflammation, so permanent makeup artists cannot work on the inflamed areas.
2. Acute purulent inflammatory processes.
Again, artists cannot work on inflamed areas. BB Glow is no exception.
3. Skin diseases in the affected area.
Here, we are talking about eczema, psoriasis, warts, papillomas, etc. There is no chance for BB Glow to settle in the affected area. Bacteria are a contraindication here.
4. Fever.
If our body struggles with bacteria, viruses, and so on, it rejects any external ‘guests’ and tries to supplant them. BB Glow is something that comes from the outside and gets under the skin layers. So, please stay home in this case, and don’t hesitate to reschedule your appointment.
5. Allergy to components.
There is a full list of ingredients on the back side of every serum box. Any artist should ask their clients if they have an allergy and see if such ingredient is contained in the pigment.
6. Diabetes.
Diabetics have blood clotting problems which is a contraindication. The healing process takes a much longer time.
7. Intake of medicine that affects blood clotting.
BB Glow Procedure Instructions
Before
- Consultation is vital. Booking a consultation with a certified and licensed permanent makeup artist should never be underestimated.

- Avoid using Retinol before the procedure.
- Do not wear makeup or skin care products on the day of the treatment.

What Is the BB Glow Treatment?
BB Glow is a complex treatment that is supposed to improve the texture, quality and tone of the face. It’s a fusion between the microneedling/nanoneedling facial and semi-permanent makeup, so it targets a number of skin issues, and gives an anti-aging effect.
It’s supposed to give the effect of wearing lightweight foundation, or BB cream.
Who Is a Candidate for BB Glow?
Anyone who’s dealing with dark under-eye area, freckles or any of the skin issues (hyper-pigmentation, pigmentation, age spots, post-acne, age wrinkles, enlarged pores, oily skin) and who wants to improve their overall skin condition. Since the treatment does involve breaking the skin surface and pigmentation, there are certain contraindications.
Who Isn’t a Candidate for BB Glow?
Due to the nature of the application and the pigmented serums used, the BB Glow facial isn’t suitable for clients who are:
- pregnant or nursing;
- undergoing cancer treatment;
- suffering from skin conditions like Psoriasis, Rosacea, active acne, etc.;
- suffering from any infection;
- prone to keloid scarring;
- prone to allergies to cosmetic products;
- taking blood-thinning medications;
- taking Accutane.
Is the BB Glow Facial Safe?
Yes, it is. The treatment claims to not implement the tinted serums into the dermis, only into the epidermis. The procedure is painless and provides natural results with even skin tone, moistorized and glowing skin, and better pores look.
How many BB Glow procedures are usually performed?
Artists at Anna Kara’s Beauty Studio (San Diego) usually do from 2 to 4 procedures based on the client’s goal and wish. For younger clients, 2 procedures will be enough. If there is any pigmentation or freckles, we usually perform 4 – 5 procedures.
Every procedure is done between 2 and 4 weeks. Some redness might occur because the capillaries are close to the skin surface, but the face will already look brighter.
How long does the BB Glow procedure last?
The procedure time is one hour.
How long does the BB Glow effect last?
The results will last for 6 months after a session. We recommend a minimum of 3 – 5 sessions every 2 weeks.
How much does BB Glow treatment cost?
The procedure cost is $150 (one session).
The Aftercare Instructions are provided to every client after the procedure. The main thing here is to apply the SPF cream, which is a common piece of advice for all of us.
Anna Kara’s PMU Studio is located in San Diego, California. Feel free to make an appointment for a consultation. We will answer all your questions. Get ready to shine!
