Skin Rejuvenation + Anti-Aging
What is skin aging?
Healthy, youthful skin is held up by a scaffold of collagen and elastin made by cells in the dermis called fibroblasts. From our mid-twenties these cells slow down, so the skin makes less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid each year. Cell turnover also slows, leaving the surface duller and rougher.
On top of this natural (intrinsic) aging, sun exposure and the environment cause photoaging: brown spots, redness, broken capillaries, enlarged pores and deeper lines. Rejuvenation by green beauty concept means waking the skin’s own repair processes back up, so results look like you on a good day rather than a changed face.
What causes visible skin aging?
- Natural decline in collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid
- UV exposure (the main cause of spots, redness and premature wrinkles)
- Slower cell turnover, leading to dull, uneven texture
- Repeated facial expressions and gravity
- Hormonal changes, including menopause
- Smoking, pollution, poor sleep, stress and dehydration
Why is skin rejuvenation at Paad Wellness different?
Committed to: a green beauty approach that stimulates your skin to rebuild its own collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, using non-invasive and minimally invasive technologies matched to each concern: tone, texture, firmness and lines.
Against: overfilled or “frozen” results, aggressive resurfacing with long recovery, and one-device-fits-all packages that ignore your skin type.
Vancouver’s evidence-informed skin clinic combining eight non-surgical technologies (Nordlys Light & Bright, Regenlite, LPG Endermolift, Sublative, Sublime, MedLite C6, microneedling and Bloomea) to restore tone, firmness and radiance without fillers or surgery powered by Green Beauty Concept.
Nordlys Light & Bright
What is Nordlys Light & Bright?
Light & Bright™ is a rejuvenation and resurfacing treatment on the Nordlys platform by Candela. It combines two technologies in one visit: narrowband intense pulsed light (Selective Waveband Technology, SWT®) and the Frax 1550™ and/or Frax 1940™ non-ablative fractional lasers. Together they treat redness, dark spots and texture at the same time.
How does Light & Bright work on aging skin?
First, the SWT light targets pigment and small blood vessels to clear sun spots, redness and spider veins. Because its dual filters remove unneeded wavelengths, it delivers less heat to the surrounding skin than traditional broadband IPL. Then the Frax laser places microscopic columns of light energy in the skin. Frax 1940 works near the surface to refine tone and texture, and Frax 1550 reaches deeper to stimulate new collagen for lines and pores.
What does Light & Bright do for my skin?
- Fades dark spots, sun damage and uneven skin colour
- Reduces redness and spider veins
- Smooths static lines and wrinkles
- Refines enlarged pores and textural irregularities
- Leaves a clearer, brighter, more even complexion
Which areas can be treated?
Face, neck, chest and hands.
What can I expect?
You will wear protective eyewear and feel warm, light snaps on the skin. Recovery is typically between 2–7 days, depending on the settings. Pigmented spots darken and the skin may slough lightly before clearing within a few days.
Session
~60 min
Typical course
3 sessions
Interval
~4 weeks
Downtime
2–7 days
Regenlite Laser
What is Regenlite?
Regenlite is a 585 nm pulsed dye laser (PDL) with Smart Pulse technology. It is used for skin rejuvenation, active acne and vascular lesions, with minimal discomfort and minimal downtime.
How does Regenlite work on aging skin?
The laser light gently heats the upper dermis without damaging the surface. This activates the skin’s own fibroblasts, which respond by producing new collagen and elastin. Over the following weeks the skin becomes firmer, smoother and more even, and the effect builds gradually and lasts.
What does Regenlite do for my skin?
- Softens fine lines and wrinkles, including around the eyes
- Refines enlarged pores and improves smoothness
- Reduces redness and diffuse broken capillaries
- Fades pigmentation left by acne or surgery
- Strengthens the skin’s connective tissue to slow future aging
Which areas can be treated?
Face, around the eyes, neck, décolletage and hands.
What can I expect?
A full-face session takes about one hour. Most clients feel only a gentle warmth, and you can return to your day straight away.
Session
~60 min (face)
Typical course
3–5 sessions
Interval
2–4 weeks
Downtime
Minimal
LPG Endermolift
What is LPG Endermolift?
LPG Endermolift (Endermologie® Face) is a popular and pleasant French technology that offers a natural, non-invasive facelift for men and women of all ages. It uses no light, heat or needles, only patented mechanical stimulation of the skin.
How does LPG Endermolift work?
A small motorized head gently lifts and rolls the skin to “exercise” it and the connective tissue underneath. This mechano-stimulation reactivates fibroblasts so they make collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid again. Clinical research on the technique reported up to 80% more natural hyaluronic acid and visibly smoother wrinkles (Humbert et al., Clinical Interventions in Aging, 2015).
What does LPG Endermolift do for my skin?
- Brightens and clarifies the complexion
- Improves suppleness and firmness
- Minimizes wrinkles and expression lines
- Gives a natural lift by working in an anti-gravity direction
- Reduces puffiness by stimulating lymphatic drainage
Which areas can be treated?
Face, eye contour, lips, neck and décolletage.
What can I expect?
The treatment feels like a relaxing massage, and settings are adjusted to your skin’s sensitivity. Your skin may look slightly flushed for a short time from increased circulation. Many clients see a fresher complexion from the first sessions.
Session
30–60 min
Typical course
10–20 sessions
Interval
1–2 per week
Downtime
None
Sublative FRF (Elos Plus)
What is Sublative FRF?
Sublative is a new-generation fractional radio frequency (FRF) treatment. It does not rely on light, so it is suitable for all skin types and tones. It treats fine lines and wrinkles, textural irregularities and acne scars, and tightens the skin in the same sitting.
How does Sublative work on aging skin?
An array of multi-electrode pins delivers bipolar RF energy in a fine grid. Each dot is a tiny treated zone, while the untouched skin around it drives fast healing. The energy works mainly in the dermis, so it remodels deeper collagen with far less recovery than ablative laser resurfacing.
What does Sublative do for my skin?
- Smooths fine lines and wrinkles
- Improves crepey texture and enlarged pores
- Tightens and firms the skin
- Softens indented acne and surgical scars
Which areas can be treated?
Face, around the eyes, neck, décolletage and hands.
What can I expect?
A topical numbing cream keeps you comfortable, and the session takes about 30 minutes. Expect redness for several days and a faint grid of tiny dots that fades within a few days.
Session
~30 min
Typical course
3–5 sessions
Interval
4–6 weeks
Downtime
Several days
Sublime Skin Tightening (Elos Plus)
What is Sublime?
Sublime is a non-invasive skin tightening and contouring treatment on the Elos Plus platform. It uses heat to stimulate collagen deep in the skin for a firmer, more defined look, often described as a non-surgical facelift effect.
How does Sublime work?
Sublime combines infrared light with bipolar radio frequency to heat the lower layers of the dermis evenly. This heat tightens aging collagen fibres and prompts the skin to produce new collagen, the structural protein that keeps connective tissue firm. Because it does not target pigment, it is safe for a wide range of skin types.
What does Sublime do for my skin?
- Tones the cheeks and reduces sagging along the jawline
- Firms the neck
- Diminishes fine wrinkles and improves smoothness
- Sharpens facial contours
- Improves overall skin quality and vibrancy
Which areas can be treated?
Face and neck.
What can I expect?
The treatment feels like a warm, deep-tissue massage, and numbing cream is rarely needed. You will wear goggles and a cool gel protects the skin. You can return to your day straight away. Results build gradually and are best 3–6 months after the course.
Session
30–60 min
Typical course
3–5 sessions
Interval
3–4 weeks
Downtime
Minimal
MedLite C6 Laser Facial
What is MedLite C6?
MedLite C6 by Cynosure is a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser. At Paad Wellness it is used as a laser facial for anti-aging and pigmented lesions, with minimal redness and no social downtime.
How does MedLite C6 work?
The laser delivers extremely short, high-energy pulses. The 1064 nm wavelength passes deep into the dermis, where it breaks up unwanted pigment and gently stimulates collagen remodelling. Because it is less absorbed by surface melanin, it is a good choice for a wide range of skin tones.
What does MedLite C6 do for my skin?
- Fades sun damage, age spots and uneven pigmentation
- Softens fine lines
- Refines pores and evens skin tone
- Improves dark marks and shallow acne scarring
- Leaves a brighter, “glow” complexion
Which areas can be treated?
Face, neck, décolletage and hands.
What can I expect?
You will wear protective eyewear and feel light snapping on the skin. Mild redness usually settles within a few hours, and you can go back to your normal routine the same day.
Session
~20–30 min
Typical course
4–6 sessions
Interval
2–4 weeks
Downtime
Minimal
Microneedling
What is microneedling?
Clinical microneedling, also called Percutaneous Collagen Induction (PCI), is a minimally invasive treatment. We use amiea med, a German-made technology whose single-use needle cartridges have a patented safety membrane for high hygiene standards.
How does microneedling work?
Very fine needles create thousands of controlled micro-channels in the skin. The skin responds by releasing growth factors that trigger new collagen and elastin just below the surface. The channels close quickly, and the skin rebuilds itself thicker and smoother over the following weeks.
What does microneedling do for my skin?
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
- Refines pore size and texture
- Improves acne scars and other scarring
- Brightens a dull complexion
- Suitable for all skin tones, including darker skin
Which areas can be treated?
Face, neck, décolletage, hands and areas of scarring or stretch marks on the body.
What can I expect?
A numbing cream is applied first, so most clients feel only light pressure. Your skin will look pink, like a mild sunburn, for 1–3 days. Avoid active skincare such as retinol and acids for a few days afterwards.
Session
~45–60 min
Typical course
3–4 sessions
Interval
4 weeks
Downtime
1–3 days
Bloomea Skin Resurfacing
What is Bloomea?
Bloomea® is a mechanical skin resurfacing device from France, first developed by plastic surgeons to fade post-operative scars. It boosts elastin and collagen naturally, without heat, light or needles.
How does Bloomea work?
Bloomea is a two-step treatment. First, macro-exfoliation removes surface imperfections layer by layer to smooth texture and unify the complexion. Second, high-frequency micro-vibration tones the skin and stimulates elastin and collagen. A manufacturer study reported about 20% more elastin after four sessions.
What does Bloomea do for my skin?
- Smooths fine lines and superficial wrinkles
- Tightens and tones the skin
- Refines texture and tightens pores
- Reduces hyperpigmentation
- Softens scars and stretch marks
Which areas can be treated?
Face, neck, décolletage and body.
What can I expect?
Bloomea is gentle and comfortable. Each client has a personal single-use tip. The skin may look slightly pink for a few hours, and results improve with each session as new cells regenerate.
Session
~30 min
Typical course
4–6 sessions
Interval
1–2 weeks
Downtime
Minimal

Your Personalized Skin Rejuvenation Plan
Most clients get the best results from a combination approach, tailored after a free skin assessment.
1. Skin assessment
We look at tone, texture, firmness and lines, review your skincare and medications, and check your skin type to choose the right technologies and settings.
2. Correct colour and clarity
Nordlys Light & Bright, Regenlite or MedLite C6 clear sun spots, redness and uneven tone first, so the skin is a clean canvas.
3. Rebuild and firm
Nordlys Light & Bright, Regenlite, Sublative, Sublime, microneedling and LPG Endermolift stimulate new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid to smooth lines and restore firmness.
4. Maintain
Daily sunscreen, a home-care routine and periodic LPG, Bloomea or Sublime maintenance sessions keep results going.
Who is suitable?
These treatments suit healthy adults, both women and men, who want to prevent or soften early to moderate signs of aging: dullness, uneven tone, sun spots, redness, enlarged pores, fine lines and mild loss of firmness. They also suit people who prefer natural-looking results without fillers or surgery, and can complement care from your family doctor or dermatologist.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon will I see results?
Brightness and smoother texture are often visible after one or two sessions. Firmness and line reduction build over the full course, because new collagen forms over the following 3–6 months.
Is it painful?
Most clients find these treatments very tolerable. LPG and Bloomea feel like a massage or facial, Sublime like a warm deep-tissue massage, and Nordlys, Regenlite and MedLite like warmth or a light snap. A numbing cream is used for Sublative and might be used for Nordlys Light & Bright and microneedling.
Is there any downtime?
Most treatments have minimal downtime, with redness lasting from a few hours to a day. Nordlys Light & Bright usually needs 2–7 days depending on the settings, microneedling 1–3 days, and Sublative can cause redness for several days. Avoid sun, pools and high heat while the skin settles.
Which treatment is best for me?
It depends on your main concern. Spots, redness and uneven tone respond best to Nordlys Light & Bright, Regenlite or MedLite C6. Lines and texture respond to Sublative or microneedling. Firmness and a natural lift respond to Sublime and LPG Endermolift. We usually combine two or three after your consultation.
How long do results last?
The collagen you build is your own, so results can last for years. Skin keeps aging naturally, so we recommend daily sunscreen and occasional maintenance sessions, such as Sublime every 3–6 months.
Is it safe for darker skin?
Sublative, Sublime, microneedling, LPG and Bloomea are suitable for all skin types, and Regenlite laser and MedLite C6 work well across a wide range of skin tones. For Nordlys Light & Bright we choose settings after assessing your skin type.
