Port Wine Staining Macclesfield

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina, a cutting edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) is used to manage Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV safely and efficaciously. This apparatus is employed by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK. By radiating light at precise wavelength ranges, absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin are focused on, enabling us to treat Port Wine Staining of multiple sizes and depths with minimal harm to the neighbouring skin. After the procedure, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body and there is rarely any evidence of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we take advantage of IPL to make use of light energy. The light is taken up by the Port Wine Staining, which then heat up to a point where they contract and/or shut down, effectively sealing them. After a few weeks, the injured vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving minimal or no trace of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, an extensive medical history examination and physical assessment, along with snaps, will be carried out during the appointment. It is also a great opportunity to chat about any worries, expectations, results, or questions you may have. Before commencing the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, any post-treatment guidance and possible risks will be explained to make sure you are totally aware of them and a consent form will be signed. Furthermore, if the area being treated is fresh, a patch test will be conducted to guarantee it is right for you.
