A clear breakdown of clients who ask about BBL, without you offering the service.
When clients research collagen-building treatments, they often come across microneedling, BBL, or a combination of both. Even though I do not offer BBL at APARISBEAUTY, it’s helpful to understand why people compare these treatments — and where Qi Beauty offers a non-invasive alternative that delivers transformative results without light, heat, or downtime.
⸻
What Is Microneedling?
Best for: texture, scarring, pore size, fine lines, rejuvenation
Microneedling triggers collagen + elastin production by creating controlled micro-channels in the skin. It repairs texture, stimulates firmness, and brightens the complexion.
Why clients love it: visible change, smoother skin, tighter pores, and healthier glow.
⸻
What Is Qi Beauty®?
Best for: lifting, lymphatic drainage, inflammation reduction, glow, sculpting
Qi Beauty uses a precise magnetic matrix — no needles, no heat — to activate microcirculation, reduce puffiness, energize the skin, and encourage natural lifting.
Why clients love it: immediate lifted appearance, sculpted contours, decreased inflammation, and a radiant “wake-up” for the skin.

Why Some People Ask About Microneedling + BBL
Even though BBL is not offered at APARISBEAUTY, many clients ask about it because they’ve seen it online or had it recommended elsewhere.
Here’s what BBL generally aims to do:
• Brighten the skin
• Reduce pigmentation or redness
• Improve clarity
• Target sun damage using light energy
What people are really looking for is:
✔ clearer skin
✔ more even tone
✔ improved circulation
✔ brighter overall complexion
This is where Qi Beauty naturally fits into that space — without the device, heat, or downtime.

Why Qi Beauty Is Often Compared to BBL (Even Though It’s Completely Different)
1. Both improve overall skin “brightness” — but differently
• BBL uses light to target pigment + redness.
• Qi Beauty uses magnetic energy + lymphatic activation to improve oxygenation, circulation, and cellular repair.
➡ Qi Beauty gives a natural, internal radiance without triggering inflammation.
2. Both enhance results when paired with Microneedling
People often combine BBL with microneedling to treat
✔ texture
✔ tone
✔ pigment
✔ aging
But microneedling + Qi Beauty achieves a similar “double-layered skin upgrade” by:
• Microneedling repairing deeper collagen
• Qi Beauty improving circulation, drainage, tone, and cellular activity on the surface
➡ You get both structure and energetics working together.
3. Qi Beauty offers what BBL cannot: lymphatic drainage + sculpting
BBL does not address:
• puffiness
• stagnation
• lymphatic congestion
• contour definition
• inflammatory buildup
Qi Beauty does all of that — giving the skin a lifted, sculpted shape that devices cannot replicate.
4. Qi Beauty is safer for more people
Because Qi Beauty is:
• non-invasive
• pregnancy-safe
• heat-free
• no downtime
• barrier-protective
…it becomes the go-to alternative for clients who want advanced results but cannot tolerate light or heat-based modalities.
⸻
Microneedling + Qi Beauty = The APARISBEAUTY Alternative
Think of this combination as a “collagen + circulation” powerhouse.
Microneedling: repairs the deeper layers
Qi Beauty: energizes, drains, brightens, lifts the outer layers
Together, they give clients the same desire people chase with microneedling + BBL:
✨ smoother texture
✨ clearer-looking skin
✨ brighter glow
✨ reduced puffiness
✨ healthier collagen activity
…but without the intensity, heat, or potential irritation of light-based treatments.
