Port Wine Stain Birthmarks Withington

Dr Sknn use the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is also employed by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK to safely and effectively treat Port Wine Stain Birthmarks on skin types I-IV. By releasing light in specified wavelength ranges, we are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, meaning we can take on Port Wine Stain Birthmarks of different sizes and depths, while causing minimum harm to the adjacent skin. Following the treatment, the impaired vessels are taken up by the body, with no trace of the original lesion remaining.

At Dr Sknn, we use IPL to make the most of light energy, the light is taken in by the Port Wine Stain Birthmarks, heating them to a point where they spasm and/or collapse and are sealed. Over the time that follows, the damaged vessels are broken down naturally by the body, leaving very little trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, a complete medical and physical assessment is done, including photographs, during the appointment. This is the opportunity to address any worries, expectations, results, or questions you may have. Before the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, any post-treatment advice and any risks related with the treatment will be outlined, ensuring you have a complete comprehension of them, and a consent form is signed. In addition, if a new area is being treated, a patch test will be performed to ensure it is suitable.
