Port Wine Staining Chelford

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina, a premier Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) used by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, is used to treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV securely and successfully. By radiating light at certain wavelength ranges, we are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to address Port Wine Staining of various sizes and depths without causing considerable damage to the surrounding skin. Once the procedure is complete, the impaired vessels are assimilated by the body, leaving little to no indication of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we utilise IPL, which involves using light energy to heat the Port Wine Staining to the point where they go into spasm and/or collapse and seals them. Over the forthcoming weeks, the broken vessels are gradually assimilated by the body, with no trace of the original lesion remaining.

At Dr Sknn, a comprehensive medical history and physical examination are done during the consultation, including taking of photos. patients will be given the opportunity to communicate their fears, expectations, results they wish to obtain, or any queries they may have. All the post-treatment advice and potential risks involved with the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment are discussed prior to the treatment and a consent form must be signed. Moreover, a small patch test with IPL will be done if there is a new area to be treated to make sure the patient is suitable for the treatment.
