Port Wine Stain Birthmarks Tytherington

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina - a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) - which is similarly employed by the NHS as well as private hospitals in the UK, for treating Port Wine Stain Birthmarks in a secure and effective manner for skin types I-IV. By emitting light of a certain wavelength range, we at Dr Sknn target the absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thus allowing treatments of various sizes and depths of Port Wine Stain Birthmarks, while causing minimal harm to the skin in the vicinity. After the treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL, which involves light energy. The light is absorbed by the veins, and they are heated to a point of contraction and/or closure, thereby sealing them. Over the ensuing weeks, the impaired vessels are gradually broken down by the body, leaving no trace of the original affliction.

At Dr Sknn, during the appointment, a medical history and physical examination will be conducted including photographs. This will give you a chance to talk through any apprehensions, expectations, outcomes, or questions you may have. Any post-treatment instructions and the risks associated with the treatment will be discussed before the treatment to make sure you fully understand them, and a consent form will be signed. Additionally, if it is a fresh area being treated, a mini patch test will be carried out to ensure it is suitable for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
