What is Nordlys?
Everyone’s skin is unique and not all skin conditions can be treated the same way. To help you reclaim your skin’s youthful look, texture and tone, our Riverchase providers use the Nordlys® system, which offers different state-of-the-art technologies to target problem areas such as dark spots or redness, to resurface the skin and to treat vascular conditions, nail disorders and warts.
Treatment Options

Fractional Laser Resurfacing
Fractional Laser Resurfacing applicators deliver small, controlled bursts of energy to resurface skin. Treatments can be customized to your specific needs and take just a short time. Healing and recovery are quick. The treatment is clinically proven to improve the appearance of skin with a short downtime and minimal side effects.
