Port Wine Staining Old Trafford

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, an advanced Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) to safely and efficaciously treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV. This technology is utilised by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK. By emitting light in predetermined wavelength ranges, absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin can be targeted, permitting us to treat Port Wine Staining of various sizes and depths while causing minimal harm to the neighbouring skin. Subsequent to the treatment, the affected vessels are absorbed by the body and there is hardly any trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we utilise IPL to make use of light energy. This light is taken up by the Port Wine Staining, which then heat up to a point where they contract and/or shut down, forming a seal. Over the following weeks, the damaged vessels are absorbed naturally by the body, leaving minimal or no trace of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, a comprehensive medical history examination and physical assessment, plus images, will be done during the consultation. It is also a great chance to discuss any anxieties, expectations, results, or queries you may have. Before beginning the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, any post-treatment advice and likely risks will be outlined to make sure you are totally aware of them and a consent form will be signed. Furthermore, if the area being treated is novel, a patch test will be completed to confirm it is suitable for you.
