Acne Scar Treatment
Paad Wellness + DermEsthetics offers seven advanced acne scar treatment technologies in one place. Acne scars form when inflamed acne, caused by pores clogged with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, damages the skin’s underlying structure, leaving depressed or textured scarring behind as it heals. We match one or a combination of the following to your specific scarring at consultation:
Nordlys Non‑Ablative Fractional 1550
What Is Nordlys NAFL 1550
Nordlys NAFL is a 1550nm non-ablative fractional laser that delivers microscopic columns of energy beneath the skin without removing its surface. These micro-thermal zones break down fibrous scar tissue and trigger neocollagenesis (new collagen and elastin), remodelling deeper, textured acne scars while sparing surrounding skin for a faster recovery than a fully ablative laser.
What To Expect
Numbing cream and built-in cooling keep treatment comfortable; most feel a warm, prickling sensation. Sessions run 20 to 30 minutes, followed by redness, swelling, and flaking for about 4 to 7 days. Milder scarring needs 1 to 3 sessions; deeper scars often need 3 to 5, spaced several weeks apart. Skin looks firmer almost immediately, with fuller results over a few months as new collagen builds.
Regenlite
What Is Regenlite
Regenlite is a 585-595nm pulsed dye laser that uses smart pulse technology to treat acne scarring painlessly, with only a short period of downtime. It triggers your body’s own natural collagen production to remodel sunken scar tissue into flatter, smoother skin, while also calming inflammation and acne-causing bacteria.
What To Expect
A full-face session takes about 30 minutes and feels like gentle warmth: fast, painless, no anesthesia needed. Suitable for most healthy adults, skin types, and a wide variety of skin colours.
Sublative FRF
What Is Sublative FRF
Sublative FRF (Elos Plus) uses fractionated bipolar radio-frequency to stimulate collagen deep in the dermis without disturbing the outer skin. A grid of micro-electrode pins creates controlled micro-wounds, prompting the skin to heal and rebuild collagen, improving acne scar texture from within.
What To Expect
Treatment feels like a standard facial and takes about 30 minutes, with only a short period of downtime, a convenient option to fit into a workday.
Medlite Laser
What Is Medlite
The Medlite C6 is a Q-Switched Nd:YAG laser using PhotoAcoustic technology (rapid nanosecond light pulses rather than heat) to reduce acne-causing bacteria and pore size while stimulating new collagen and elastin, improving superficial acne scarring.
What To Expect
Sessions run 20 to 30 minutes with a mild warming or snapping sensation and only a short period of downtime. Because results build gradually, a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart is typically recommended.
Microneedling
What Is Microneedling
Microneedling uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries that trigger percutaneous collagen induction, the skin’s natural healing response, building new collagen and elastin beneath the surface to soften scar depth over time.
What To Expect
Sensation ranges from mild prickling to fully tolerable, eased with numbing cream. Minor pinpoint bleeding or bruising can occur, and a course of several sessions builds results.
Microdermabrasion
What Is Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion applies crystal technology to mechanically exfoliate dead skin and stimulate cellular renewal, smoothing superficial acne scarring and uneven texture over a course of sessions.
What To Expect
Known as the “lunchtime peel,” it’s quick and comfortable with only a short period of downtime; light makeup can go on right after, and any redness fades within a day.
Bloomea
What Is Bloomea
Bloomea combines three technologies in one session (macro-exfoliation, micro-vibration with a collagen-rich cream, and light therapy) to resurface skin and stimulate natural collagen and elastin production.
What To Expect
Sessions run 30 to 60 minutes and are generally comfortable, with only a short period of downtime. Mild redness, peeling, and sensitivity for about 24 hours are normal as skin adjusts.
Benefits
Matched to your scar type
Seven technologies mean your plan can fit the depth, pattern, and cause of your scarring instead of one-size-fits-all.

different mechanisms mean technologies can be layered into one customized plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes acne scars?
Inflamed acne, caused by pores clogged with oil, dead skin, and bacteria, damages the skin’s structure, leaving depressed or textured scarring as it heals.
Which technology is right for my acne scars
It depends on your scar’s depth and pattern, assessed at consultation. Nordlys Frax 1550 suits deeper, textured scars; Regenlite, Sublative FRF, and Microneedling suit collagen remodeling with less downtime; Medlite pairs scar treatment with bacteria reduction; Microdermabrasion and Bloomea suit overall texture. Many clients combine technologies.
How many sessions will I need
Nordlys Frax 1550 typically needs 1 to 3 sessions (3 to 5 for deeper scars); Regenlite, Sublative FRF, Medlite, and Microneedling are usually a series spaced weeks apart; Microdermabrasion and Bloomea are often an ongoing course. Confirmed at consultation.
Is treatment painful?
Regenlite, Sublative FRF, Microdermabrasion, and Bloomea feel like warmth or a gentle massage. Nordlys Frax 1550 and Microneedling involve more sensation, eased with numbing cream.
Is there any downtime?
Regenlite, Sublative FRF, Microdermabrasion, and Bloomea involve only a short period of downtime, with redness usually fading in several days. Nordlys Frax 1550 has more visible downtime, with redness, swelling, and flaking for 4 to 7 days. Microneedling can cause minor bruising.
When will I see results?
Some improvement appears within days for Nordlys Frax 1550 and Regenlite; full results build over weeks to months as new collagen forms.
Are these treatments safe for all skin types?
Most suit a wide range of skin types, tones, and colours; candidacy is confirmed at consultation, including for laser-based options.
