Port Wine Stain Treatment Romiley

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL). The same device is employed by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK for safely and effectively treating Port Wine Stain on types I-IV skin. By emitting light in certain wavelength ranges, we can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, permitting us to treat Port Wine Stain of different sizes and depths and at the same time causing minimal harm to the surrounding skin. Once the procedure is completed, the impaired vessels are taken in by the body, leaving no or little trace of the initial lesion.

IPL is employed at Dr Sknn to utilise the light energy, which is then taken up by the Port Wine Stain. The heat produced causes them to spasm or collapse, thus sealing them. Eventually, the body breaks down the wounded vessels in the following weeks, barely leaving any trace of the original injury.

At Dr Sknn, a full medical background and physical examination will be performed during the consultation, with images taken. This is the time for you to talk about any apprehensions, expectations, possible outcomes, or queries you may have. Before the treatment, all post-treatment advice and any risks associated with the treatment will be discussed in depth so you are totally aware and a consent form will be signed. Moreover, when a new region is being treated, a small Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) patch test will be conducted to check it is suitable.
