Port Wine Stain Heald Green

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) is employed - the same one used by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK to safely and effectively manage Port Wine Stain on skin types I-IV. By sending out light in certain wavelength ranges, Dr Sknn targets absorption peaks of haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, permitting us to treat Port Wine Stain of various sizes and depths, while causing minimal damage to the nearby skin. Subsequent to the treatment, the affected vessels are taken up by the body, leaving very little or no trace of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, making use of IPL, we employ light energy which is absorbed by the capillaries, heating them to a point where they contract, or collapse, and close off. Over the following weeks, the hurt vessels are eliminated by the body, so no sign of the initial lesion is left.

At Dr Sknn, during the appointment a medical history and physical examination will be taken, including photographs. This is the perfect opportunity to discuss any doubts, expectations, results, or queries you may have. Additionally, before the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment is carried out, you will be informed on the post-treatment advice and risks associated with the process to make sure you are aware of them and sign the consent form. Furthermore, a patch test will be done for any new areas being treated, to verify its suitability.
