In Haarlem, explore the drawbacks openly: a subtle tint placed with exceptionally fine needles, then slowly fading.

Think of the intended tint as a thin film of BB cream that cannot be wiped away. BB Glow achieves this light colour by placing tinted cosmetic serum extremely shallowly in the upper skin layer, using exceptionally fine needles. It normally becomes less visible over several weeks to a few months.
Consultation: complete the intake and consent form before arriving. We begin your visit by talking through your health, skin, possible allergies and what you hope for. Colour choice: we select a suitable shade with you. Skin preparation: we clean and disinfect the treatment area. Serum placement: sterile needles, discarded after a single use, deliver the tinted serum extremely shallowly into the upper skin layer. To finish: we calm the skin and explain how to care for it afterwards.
Healthy skin without irritation, and a wish for a subtle colour that disappears over time, may make BB Glow worth considering. Suitability is assessed with you at Nour Skin Center when your visit begins; we cannot decide this online. Call or WhatsApp us with any questions in advance. Uncertainty or a skin condition means we refer you to your GP or dermatologist first. Anyone under 18 must contact us before proceeding.
Leave BB Glow aside, or wait, in any of these circumstances: pregnancy or nursing a baby; skin affected by active acne, rosacea, eczema or irritation; a facial infection, including a cold sore; a tendency towards raised, thick scarring (keloids); taking the acne drug isotretinoin within the previous 6 to 12 months; taking medication that thins the blood; sensitivity to the colour pigments or any other component in the tinted serum; an upcoming facial laser appointment; skin burnt by the sun or a recently acquired tan
Your skin and the effect you hope for guide the number of appointments, which we agree with you during your visit. A common plan includes two to four treatments separated by a few weeks. Individual needs can mean a different approach.
The tint is light and the change modest. Pores, scars and spots generally still show through; it will not conceal them with foundation-like coverage. Over a few weeks to a few months, the colour normally diminishes, sometimes at an uneven rate. Each person’s outcome is different.
The needles that place pigment in your skin bring the risks associated with microneedling, alongside some additional concerns with BB Glow: skin that is red, swollen or tender during the initial days; sensitivity or allergy to the colour pigment; little lumps or inflammation within the skin (granulomas), a rare effect recorded in medical publications; patchy colour or discolouration that remains longer; a skin infection; a greater likelihood of pigmentation differences with a darker complexion
Please tell us about any past reaction to pigment, cosmetics or skincare, either by phone or WhatsApp in advance, or when your appointment begins. Leave out retinol, acids and scrubs for a few days before treatment. Arriving with no make-up on is preferable.
We tailor your aftercare together once treatment has finished. The advice here provides general guidance.
