Port Wine Stain Hyde

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the state-of-the-art Lynton Lumina Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is also used by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK to safely and proficiently treat Port Wine Stain on skin types I-IV. This system operates by emitting light of particular wavelength ranges which target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, enabling us to treat Port Wine Stain of different sizes and depths while causing only minimal harm to the surrounding skin. Following treatment, the affected vessels are absorbed by the body and little or no evidence of the original lesion remains.

At Dr Sknn, IPL light energy is made use of, the Port Wine Stain absorbing the light and becoming heated until they spasm and/or collapse, thus creating a seal. In the weeks to come, the Port Wine Stain will be naturally reabsorbed by the body, with hardly any evidence of the lesion.

At Dr Sknn, the patient will experience a thorough medical history assessment, physical exam and even have pictures taken. This is a great opportunity for the individual to raise any worries, expectations, results or queries they may have. Before any Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) procedure is carried out, the medical team will discuss any post-treatment advice and potential risks, guaranteeing the patient has a complete understanding of the process. Furthermore, if the IPL treatment is being carried out on a new area of the body, a small patch test will be done to ensure the treatment is suitable.
