Port Wine Staining West Didsbury

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a highly advanced Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is also utilised by NHS centres and private hospitals across the UK, to safely and efficiently treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV. By sending out light in a precise wavelength range, Dr Sknn are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to address lesions of varying sizes and 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 original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL to utilise light energy. The light is absorbed by the Port Wine Staining, which then heat to a point where they contract and/or collapse, effectively sealing them. After a few weeks, the damaged vessels are naturally absorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the initial injury.

At Dr Sknn, throughout the appointment a meticulous medical history and physical exam will be conducted, with photographs taken. This is your chance to voice any worries, aims, results or queries. Before the treatment any post-treatment advice and risks associated with the treatment will be elucidated in order that you thoroughly understand them, before signing a consent form. Furthermore, if it is a new area being treated a mini patch test with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) will be implemented to make certain it is appropriate for you.
