Port Wine Staining Middlewood

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina, a cutting-edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) is employed. This system is also utilised 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 of different sizes and depths without causing any 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 implemented to utilise light energy. The radiation is taken in by the Port Wine Staining, heating them to a point which causes them to spasm and/or diminish, thus blocking them. Gradually, over the subsequent weeks, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving only a faint trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, a medical history is taken and a physical examination is performed with photographs taken during the consultation. It gives the patient a chance to talk about any doubts, assumptions, outcomes, or inquiries. All the risks connected to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment and the advice post-treatment will be outlined before the commencement, with a consent form to be signed by the patient. Moreover, for a new area to be treated, a small test is done to make sure it is suitable.
