Port Wine Staining Alderley Edge

At Dr Sknn we wield the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) to treat Port Wine Staining safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. This system is utilised by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK. By discharging light at particular wavelength ranges, we can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to treat Port Wine Staining of varying sizes and depths without causing too much damage to the surrounding skin. Subsequent to the treatment, the affected vessels are reabsorbed by the body and there is usually little to no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL and its light energy to heat the Port Wine Staining, causing them to go into spasm and/or collapse to seal them. Over the following weeks, the damaged vessels are naturally taken in by the body, leaving no sign of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, a thorough medical history analysis and physical examination, plus photographs, will be conducted during the consultation. It is also an excellent chance to discuss any fears, expectations, results, or queries you may have. Prior to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, all post-treatment advice and potential risks will be outlined to make sure you know them and a consent form will be signed. Moreover, if the area being treated is novel, a patch test will be performed to confirm it is suitable for you.
