Port Wine Staining Stockport

At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina, a premier Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) implemented by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, is used to treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV in a safe and successful manner. By transmitting light of particular wavelength ranges, we are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to address Port Wine Staining of a variety of sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the neighbouring skin. Following treatment, the harmed vessels are taken up by the body and there is scarcely any sign of the original lesion left behind.

At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL and its light energy to stimulate the Port Wine Staining, heating them to the point that they contract and/or collapse, thus sealing them. In the upcoming weeks, the broken vessels are naturally absorbed by the body, with no trace of the initial lesion left behind.

At Dr Sknn, a thorough medical history and physical examination including taking of photos is done during the consultation. patients will have the opportunity to communicate their apprehensions, expectations, results they wish to reach, or any queries they may have. All the post-treatment advice and potential risks of the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment will be discussed beforehand and a consent form must be signed. Also, a small patch test utilizing IPL will be performed if there is a new area to be treated to make sure the suitability of the patient.
