Port Wine Stain Timbersbrook

At Dr Sknn, we utilise the Lynton Lumina - a sophisticated Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) employed by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK to effectively and safely treat Port Wine Stain on skin types I-IV. By producing light in a specific wavelength range, we can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxyhaemoglobin, which enables us to treat Port Wine Stain of different sizes and depths, causing minimal damage to the nearby skin. Upon treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body, with no or hardly any evidence of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, with the aid of IPL, we make use of light energy, this is taken in by the Port Wine Stain which heats them to a degree where they contract and/or become inoperative, thereby sealing them. Over the proceeding weeks, the damaged vessels are taken in by the body organically, leaving little or no indication of the initial mark.

At Dr Sknn, a medical history together with a physical examination which includes images will be performed during the consultation. This will also be a chance to address any fears, expectations, results or queries you might have. Before the IPL treatment, any post-treatment advice and threats connected with it will be gone through, so you are aware of them before signing the consent form. Moreover, if it is an unused area being treated, a small patch test will be undertaken to ascertain if it is suitable.
