Port Wine Staining Prestbury

At Dr Sknn we use the Lynton Lumina, an advanced Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is also utilized by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK, to safely and effectively treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in distinct wavelength ranges, we at Dr Sknn are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, permitting us to address Port Wine Staining of various sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding epidermis. Following treatment, the impaired vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving hardly any trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we draw on IPL to call upon light energy. This light is ingested by the Port Wine Staining, causing them to heat up to a point where they contract and close off. Over the subsequent weeks, the ruined vessels are taken in by the body, leaving very little indication of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, a thorough medical history will be taken and a physical exam, incorporating photographs, will be completed during the consultation. This is to provide you the chance to express any doubts, expectations, results or questions you may have in relation to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). Prior to the treatment, any post-treatment advice and the hazards associated with the IPL must be discussed to ensure that you understand them and a consent form is signed. Additionally, if the area being treated is novel, then a small patch test may be done to guarantee its appropriateness.
