A BB Glow treatment in progress at HQ Aesthetics in Melville, Perth

BB Glow In Perth, A Tint, Not A Tattoo

A tinted serum worked into the surface of the skin with a needling pen, built up across a course rather than delivered in one visit. It softens how uneven tone reads. It fades, and it is not permanent makeup.

Simone treats you herself, every time

Nothing on this page is a promise about how your skin will look, because nobody can make one honestly.

Same Pen. Completely Different Treatment

BB Glow and skin needling use a similar device and get confused constantly. They are doing opposite jobs and it is worth knowing which one you are booking.

A skin needling treatment at HQ Aesthetics in Melville, Perth

Skin needling goes deeper and is aimed at the skin itself, which is why it is booked as a series spaced weeks apart and why it comes with downtime. BB Glow stays at the surface and is aimed at how the skin reads. One is working on the canvas. The other is putting something on it.

Plenty of people who arrive asking for BB Glow are describing something needling would serve better, and the reverse happens too. That is what the consultation is for. Simone would rather move you onto the right treatment at the start than take a booking for the wrong one.

Do Not Stack Them Back To Back

If you have had a needling treatment or a peel recently, say so when you book. Working over skin that is still recovering is how a good treatment turns into a bad week.

BB Glow Questions

No. A cosmetic tattoo implants pigment deeper into the skin so that it stays there for years, and removing it is a separate procedure with a laser. BB Glow works a tinted serum into the surface, and it fades. Simone does not tattoo, so if permanent is what you are after she is not the person to book.

3 to 6 for the full effect. Where you land inside that depends on your skin and on how much coverage you are after. Have that conversation at the first appointment rather than assuming you will be done in one.

A single session is $300. Three sessions are $700 and six are $1,000, and those figures are the total for the course rather than the price of each visit. Buying a course is not a condition of being treated, so if you would rather start with one session and decide afterwards, book one session.

It fades rather than washing off, and it needs topping up. Nobody has published a figure for how long that takes and it varies with your skin and how many sessions you have had, so ask Simone what she is seeing on clients rather than trusting a number off a blog.

That is the question worth asking before you book, not after. The shade is chosen against your skin and it is the single thing that decides whether you like the result. Ask Simone to match it at your jawline in the consultation so you can see it against your own face first.

Yes, once your skin has settled. Simone gives you the timings on the day, because they depend on how your skin took the treatment rather than on a printed rule. The first day or so after a needling treatment is not the day to put a full face on.

Tell Simone if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, if you have active breakouts or broken skin in the area, if you have had a needling treatment or a peel recently, or if you have ever reacted badly to a pigment or a skincare product. She would rather move the appointment than work over skin that is not ready.

Book A BB Glow Consultation

Come in and have the shade held against your jaw before you commit to a course. Call Simone, or send an enquiry describing what you want your skin to look like and she will tell you whether this is the treatment that gets you there.
