At Dr Sknn, the Lynton Lumina is employed, a top-notch Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is applied by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK to safely and effectively treat Port Wine Staining on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in a precise wavelength range, Dr Sknn focuses on absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to address lesions of different sizes and at different depths, while causing minimal damage to the encompassing skin. Post-treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and there is little or no trace of the primary lesion remaining.
Doctor Led Port Wine Staining Withington - Benefits
At Dr Sknn, by utilising IPL we make use of light energy, this light is absorbed by the Port Wine Staining which causes them to become heated to a temperature where they spasm and/or collapse, thereby sealing them. In the weeks to follow, the harmed vessels are naturally assimilated by the body, leaving little or no evidence of the initial injury.
