Port Wine Staining Astle

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) is employed. This system is employed by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK to safely and effectively treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV. By utilising light in a particular wavelength range, we are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, which helps to treat Port Wine Staining at varying sizes and depths without causing damage to the surrounding skin. Following the treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and the initial lesion is hardly noticeable.

At Dr Sknn, IPL is harnessed to employ light energy. The radiation is taken up by the Port Wine Staining, heating them to a point where they spasm and/or diminish, thus blocking them. In the weeks following the procedure, the hurt veins are gradually taken up by the body, leaving little to no trace of the injury.

At Dr Sknn, the appointment will include a medical history as well as a physical examination with photos taken. It provides a chance to bring up any worries, assumptions, outcomes, or inquiries. All the risks connected to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment and the advice post-treatment will be discussed before the commencement, with a consent form to be signed by the patient. Moreover, for a new area to be treated, a small patch test is done to make sure it is suitable.
