Modern aesthetic medicine is rapidly evolving, offering advanced solutions to treat cosmetic concerns without needles, pain, or downtime. One standout innovation is the Candela Nordlys — a multifunctional laser platform used for everything from skin rejuvenation to treating pigmentation, vascular issues, and acne. But what makes this device so special, and how effective is it in real clinical practice?

What Is Candela Nordlys?
Candela Nordlys™ is a next-generation multifunctional laser platform developed in Denmark by Ellipse, a company that became part of Candela Medical in 2017 — a global leader in energy-based aesthetic systems.
The Nordlys system combines three advanced technologies:
- SWT™ (Selective Waveband Technology) — a patented, more precise form of IPL (intense pulsed light),
- Non-ablative fractional 1550 nm laser — for skin resurfacing and collagen stimulation,
- Nd:YAG 1064 nm laser — for vascular treatments and long-term hair removal.
Together, these technologies allow Nordlys to treat over 20 medical and aesthetic indications, making it one of the most versatile systems on the market.
How Does It Work?
1. SWT™ — Selective Waveband Technology
Unlike traditional IPL systems, SWT filters out unnecessary wavelengths, delivering precise, targeted energy while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue. The result: higher effectiveness, lower discomfort, and fewer side effects.
SWT is ideal for:
- Sun damage and pigmentation,
- Vascular lesions and spider veins,
- Rosacea and redness,
- Photorejuvenation and skin tone improvement,
- Acne and post-acne treatment.
2. 1550 nm Fractional Laser
This non-ablative fractional laser penetrates the dermis to stimulate collagen production without damaging the skin’s surface. It’s used to treat:
- Fine lines and wrinkles,
- Acne scars and surgical scars,
- Uneven skin texture and tone.
3. Nd:YAG 1064 nm Laser
This long-pulse laser targets deeper vessels and hair follicles, making it effective for:
- Deep vascular lesions,
- Angiomas and hemangiomas,
- Hair removal on darker skin types.
What Makes Nordlys So Unique?
Comfortable treatments — thanks to built-in cooling and precise energy delivery.
Safety first — intelligent energy control minimizes risks like burns or pigmentation.
Multifunctionality — one device treats pigmentation, redness, acne, wrinkles, and hair.
Clinically proven — trusted by over 6,000 clinics worldwide and supported by numerous clinical studies.
Proven Clinical Results
Studies published in international dermatology journals report:
- 92% of patients noticed an improvement in skin tone after just 1–2 Nordlys SWT treatments.
- Acne treatments showed results comparable to oral medications — but without side effects.
- Vascular issues were reduced by 75–90% over a short course of sessions.
The platform is used in clinical protocols for conditions like rosacea, telangiectasia, hyperpigmentation, acne scars, and fine lines.
What Concerns Can Be Treated?
Face:
- Redness, rosacea, and visible veins,
- Pigmented spots and freckles,
- Enlarged pores and uneven skin tone,
- Acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Body:
- Permanent hair removal (including on darker skin),
- Spider veins on the legs,
- Stretch marks,
- Sun-damaged skin on hands or décolleté.
What Is the Procedure Like?
- A consultation is done to assess your skin and select the right treatment.
- A cooling gel or contact crystal is applied.
- The device delivers short pulses of light or laser energy to the skin.
- Each session lasts 15–45 minutes, depending on the area.
- Some redness or warmth may occur, but it fades within a few hours.
A full treatment course typically includes 2 to 6 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart.
Are There Any Contraindications?
Yes. Treatments are not recommended if you:
- Are pregnant or breastfeeding,
- Have active cancer or are undergoing treatment,
- Have open wounds or infections in the treatment area,
- Have had recent sun exposure or tanning,
- Take photosensitizing medications.
