SEEING THE LIGHT Nordlys is the Danish name for the spectacular phenomenon Northern Lights also commonly known as Aurora Borealis in Latin, which means dawn of the north and named after the Roman goddess of the dawn. It is caused by electrically charged particles from the sun entering the earth s atmosphere and can be seen in the Northern hemisphere, displaying a magnificent curtain of light in various colours.

PHOTO REJUVENATION All in all I am very happy with the results! Before the treatment I had sun damage particularly on my chest. The blushing was permanent and tended to become even worse in connection with stress or temperature changes. After only three treatments the blushing has almost disappeared and I am now more careful about protecting my skin with sunscreen every day. I also had some facial thread veins as well as sun damage on my cheeks. These are also almost gone now. Sarah Johansen 39 years old Works as a nurse 10 11

SCARS I can t believe my scar is almost gone. After a bike accident, I got a scar just above my eye. I was lucky that I didn t get seriously injured. However I was very selfconscious about my scar until I heard that it was possible and easy to treat. Now I m really happy with the result. Leonardo Oliveira 37 years old Works in a law firm 28 29

HAIR REMOVAL I don t need a razor anymore. Already one month after the first treatment I was excited about the remarkable reduction in hair growth. I was told that the treatment would feel like the snap of an elastic rubber band but I actually found it practically pain free. I started getting other areas of my body treated and I m looking forward to the final result. Julia Andersen 33 years old Works as a researcher 32 33

ONYCHOMYCOSIS Getting in control of my nail fungus. When I started having problems with nail fungus, or onychomycosis as the doctor told me it is called, it really made my life more difficult. After it was suggested that I should try laser treatments, it only took a few sessions to make it a lot better. I can t feel a thing during the treatments and I only have to come back in around every 6 months to keep it down. Alexei Vasilyev 57 years old Works in a library 62 63
