Port Wine Stain Birthmarks West Didsbury

At Dr Sknn, we employ the Lynton Lumina, a leading Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is often used by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to treat Port Wine Stain Birthmarks securely and effectively on skin types I-IV. By sending out light in particular wavelength ranges, we are able to focus on absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to address Port Wine Stain Birthmarks of different sizes and depths, while causing minimal damage to the nearby skin. After the treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and no sign of the initial lesion is left.

At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL to utilise light energy, which is then absorbed by the Port Wine Stain Birthmarks, heating them up until they go into spasm and/or collapse and are sealed. In the weeks that follow, the impaired vessels are broken down naturally by the body, leaving almost no trace of the original injury.

At Dr Sknn, a thorough medical and physical examination is done, with photographs taken, as part of the consultation. Here, any concerns, expectations, outcomes, or queries you may have can be discussed. Before the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, any post-procedure guidelines and any risks linked with the therapy are gone over, making sure you are completely aware of them, and a consent form is signed. What's more, if it is a new area being treated, a small patch test will be carried out to verify suitability.
