Port Wine Staining Pott Shrigley

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina is employed, a sophisticated Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) adopted by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK to safely and efficiently treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in a precise wavelength range, Dr Sknn are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to treat lesions of differing sizes and at different depths, all with minimal effect on the surrounding skin. Subsequent to treatment, the affected vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the primary lesion.

By utilising IPL at Dr Sknn, light energy is utilised which is then taken up by the Port Wine Staining, this causes them to heat up to a level where they spasm and/or collapse, thus sealing them. Over the course of the following weeks, the broken vessels are absorbed by the body naturally, leaving behind little or no sign of the original injury.

At Dr Sknn, all through the appointment a comprehensive medical record and physical assessment will be done, accompanied by photographs. Any concerns, hopes, results, or questions can be gone over at this time. Ahead of the treatment, any post-treatment guidance and possible risks of the treatment will be clarified so you can be sure you appreciate them, before agreeing to the treatment by signing a consent form. In addition, if it is a new area being treated a tiny patch test with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) will be administered to guarantee it is suitable for you.
