LifeScape Aesthetics added the new and innovative Nordlys system to address some of the world's most common skin concerns. The Nordlys™ Ellipse IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) Photofacial uses exclusive technology to target problem areas with very narrow light beams. This results in less heat on your skin and fewer treatments compared to other IPLs.

How can the Nordlys™ Ellipse IPL Photofacial transform your skin? 

Clear your acne.

The Nordlys™ system gently treats acne by delivering narrow light wavelengths with Ellipse IPL™. No topical anesthetics are required and many patients describe the treatment as practically pain-free, like a flick from a rubber band, followed by a sensation similar to the feeling of gentle warmth after a day on the beach. 

Remove freckles, sun damage, and other pigmented lesions.

The Ellipse IPL™ treatment makes your skin look clear and bright by delivering short bursts of light that directly target the blood vessels or melanin within your skin. It delivers clinically proven results in skin rejuvenation treatment. 

Reduce redness, unsightly veins, birthmarks, and more.

Ellipse IPL™ technology can help improve the appearance of vascular lesions, such as:

• Port wine stains
• Rosacea
• Broken capillaries 
• Diffuse redness

In clinical studies, 80% of patients had a greater than 50% reduction in the number of vessels and 78% of patients with rosacea reported being very satisfied.

Other Frequently Asked Questions:

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments depends on the area and nature of what you’re having treated and may also depend on your skin type. Schedule a complimentary consultation with Noelle to learn how many treatments you can expect for your condition. 

How can the Nordlys™ Ellipse IPL Photofacial system treat sun-damaged skin?

It makes your skin look clear and bright by delivering short bursts of light that directly target the blood vessels or melanin within your skin. Potentially harmful wavelengths are removed using patented Dual Mode Filtering. The remaining wavelengths are absorbed by the hemoglobin in your blood vessels — only the treated ones — and the melanin in your freckles, sun spots, or other pigmented lesions.

How long does it take for my vascular lesions and broken blood vessels to disappear?

Smaller vessels can disappear immediately after Nordlys™ Ellipse IPL Photofacial. Larger ones fade away more gradually over the next few weeks. 

How does the acne treatment work?

Acne occurs when your sebaceous glands overproduce an oily substance called sebum. When extra sebum gets trapped in your hair follicles, your skin can become irritated — leading to the appearance of pimples on your face. Left untreated, some types of acne can cause permanent scarring. 

The Nordlys™ Ellipse IPL Photofacial treats acne by reducing the blood supply to the sebaceous gland to slow down the production of sebum. The system delivers short, bursts of Ellipse IPL™ directed at the skin. Using patented Dual Mode Filtering technology, the system filters the light to ensure that only the wavelengths necessary for the treatment are used. Because of this, only the blood vessels that supply the sebaceous gland are impacted, while the surrounding vessels are not affected.
