At Dr Sknn we employ the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) utilised by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK to treat Portwine Stain safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in particular wavelength ranges, we at Dr Sknn can pinpoint absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thereby allowing us to treat Portwine Stain at various sizes and depths, while causing limited destruction to the surrounding skin. Subsequent to the treatment, the affected vessels are taken in by the body, leaving little or no trace of the initial lesion.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Altrincham - Benefits
Here at Dr Sknn, we make use of light energy by utilising IPL. This light is then absorbed by the Portwine Stain, heating them to a degree where they spasm and/or collapse, forming a seal. Over time, the broken vessels will be taken away naturally by the body, leaving no sign of the original lesion.
Why Choose Dr Sknn for Portwine Stain
At Dr Sknn, a thorough medical history, a physical examination and images will be taken during the consultation. There will be the possibility to talk about any apprehensions, desires, responses or queries you may have. Before any procedure, all after-treatment advice and any risks connected to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy will be explained thoroughly and a consent form will be signed by you. In addition, if the area being treated is novel, a little patch test will be carried out to make sure it is suitable.
