Poikiloderma Crewe

At Dr Sknn we utilise the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is also used by NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK to treat Poikiloderma on skin types I-IV safely and efficiently. The light emitted at Dr Sknn is of certain wavelengths that target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin. This allows us to address Poikiloderma of different sizes and depths while causing minimal injury to the surrounding skin. Following treatment the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and little or no trace of the initial lesion remains.

By making use of IPL at Dr Sknn, we leverage light energy that is absorbed by the Poikiloderma. Upon heating to a certain point, the vessels contract and/or collapse, thus forming a seal. Subsequently, the damaged vessels are normally taken in by the body over the coming weeks, leaving only a minimal or no indication of the primary wound.

At Dr Sknn, an in-depth medical history and physical examination, involving images, will be done during the consultation. This provides you with the opportunity to bring up any apprehensions, expectations, queries or questions. Before any treatment, all possible risks and post-treatment advice will be discussed to ensure you comprehend them, and a consent form will be signed. If Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is to be used on a new area, a patch test will be conducted to verify its appropriateness.
