Port Wine Staining Stretford

At Dr Sknn we wield the Lynton Lumina, a cutting edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) to manage Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV safely and effectively. This system is employed by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK. By discharging light at particular wavelength ranges, we can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, enabling us to treat Port Wine Staining of different sizes and depths with little damage to the surrounding skin. Following the procedure, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body and there is rarely any indication of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we take advantage of IPL to leverage light energy. The light is absorbed by the Port Wine Staining, which then heat to a point where they go into spasm and/or collapse, effectively sealing them. After a few weeks, the wounded vessels are absorbed by the body, leaving hardly any or no sign of the initial injury.

At Dr Sknn, an intensive pulsed light (IPL) consultation will involve a medical history, physical examination, and photographs being taken. During the session, you will have the chance to raise any worries, objectives, results, or queries that you may have. Beforehand, the likely outcomes of the treatment and the risks related to it will be gone over, so that you are completely aware of them both, and a permission document will be signed. On top of this, if the area being treated is new, a patch test will be done to make sure it is suitable.
