Port Wine Stain Eccles

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, an advanced Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is also employed by NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK, to handle Port Wine Stain safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. Through sending out light in particular wavelength ranges, Dr Sknn is able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to treat Port Wine Stain at different sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the adjoining skin. Subsequent to treatment, the injured vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving hardly any trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, with the help of IPL we avail ourselves of light energy, which is imbibed by the Port Wine Stain, heating them to an extent that they spasm and/or collapse and are then sealed. In the ensuing weeks, the impaired vessels are naturally broken down by the body, with little to no evidence of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the appointment a medical history including a physical examination along with photographs will be performed. There will be an opportunity to address any concerns, expectations, results, or questions you may have. Prior to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment any post treatment advice and risks associated with the procedure are discussed ensuring you fully understand them and a consent form is signed. Moreover, if it is a new area being treated a small patch test will be executed in order to ensure suitability.
