Port Wine Stain Birthmarks Henbury

At Dr Sknn we utilise the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is employed by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to safely and successfully treat Port Wine Stain Birthmarks on skin types I-IV. This IPL emits light in a specific wavelength range that targets absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thus allowing us to treat Port Wine Stain Birthmarks at various sizes and depths while causing minimal harm to the surrounding skin. After the treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and no trace of the initial lesion is left.

By using IPL at Dr Sknn, we make use of the light energy. The light is taken up by the vessels, heating them to the point of spasm and/or closure, thus sealing them. Over the upcoming weeks, the broken vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving almost no sign of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the appointment a medical history, physical exam, and photographs will all be taken. This is so you can have a chance to chat with us about any issues, hopes, results, or queries you have. Before any treatment is done, we'll explain to you the post-treatment advice and the dangers related to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, making sure you completely get it and sign a consent form. Moreover, if it's a new area being treated, a tiny patch test will be completed to make sure it's suitable.
