Poikiloderma Henbury

At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a top-of-the-range Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is employed by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK to treat Poikiloderma on skin types I-IV safely and effectively. The light emitted at Dr Sknn is of certain wavelength ranges that target haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin absorption peaks. This means we can deal with Poikiloderma of various sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. Following treatment the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and little or no trace of the initial lesion is left.

Here at Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL to employ light energy which gets soaked up by the Poikiloderma, heating them to a point where they contract spasmodically or disintegrate, consequently sealing them. In the days that follow, the broken vessels are reabsorbed by the body naturally and the initial mark is almost erased.

At Dr Sknn, a thorough medical history and physical examination, including photographs, will be conducted during the consultation. This is your chance to raise any worries, expectations, queries or questions. Before the treatment, all potential risks and post-treatment advice will be gone over to make sure that you understand them, and a consent form will be signed. If Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is to be used on an unvisited area, a patch test will be conducted to guarantee suitability.
