Portwine Stain Birthmark Manchester

At Dr Sknn we take advantage of the Lynton Lumina – a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) – which is also utilised by NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in certain wavelength ranges at Dr Sknn, we target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thereby enabling us to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark at different sizes and depths while causing minimal harm to the surrounding skin. Upon treatment, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body and little or no trace of the initial lesion remains.

At Dr Sknn, taking advantage of IPL, light energy is utilised - the light is taken up by the Portwine Stain Birthmark, heating them to the point where they contract and/or collapse and seal. In the following weeks, the damaged vessels are naturally reabsorbed by the body, so there is little or no trace of the primary marking.

At Dr Sknn, an exhaustive medical history and physical examination will take place, including taking photographs, during the consultation. That is when you can bring up any worries, expectations, results, or questions you may have. Before the treatment, the possible risks of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and post-treatment advice will be gone through guaranteeing you are aware of them and that a consent form is signed. In addition, if the region is unknown, a small patch test will be performed to confirm its suitability.
