Port Wine Stain Birthmarks Manchester

Here at Dr Sknn, we use the Lynton Lumina - a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is employed by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK to treat Port Wine Stain Birthmarks safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. Through emitting light in specific wavelength ranges, absorption peaks of haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin can be targeted at Dr Sknn, allowing us to treat Port Wine Stain Birthmarks of diverse sizes and depths, while causing minimal damage to the neighbouring skin. After treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, by means of IPL, we employ light energy, the illumination being taken up by the Port Wine Stain Birthmarks which are heated to a temperature that causes them to contract and/or collapse and seal themselves. In the weeks following, the impaired vessels are taken up naturally by the body so that there is either no or only a minimal trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the appointment a medical record including a physical examination alongside photographs will be taken. During the consultation, there is the opportunity to review any concerns, expectations, outcomes, or questions you may have. Before the therapy, any post-treatment advice and potential risks associated with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment are gone over ensuring that you understand them completely and a consent form is signed. Furthermore, if it's a new area being treated a minor patch test will be executed to make sure suitability.
