At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a cutting-edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) similarly employed by the NHS and private clinics around the UK to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark in a secure and effective way on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in a certain wavelength range we are able to target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, enabling us to treat these lesions at various sizes and depths while causing minimal injury to the nearby skin. When the procedure is finished, the damaged vessels are taken up by the body, leaving little to no sign of the original lesion.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Birthmark Mere - Benefits
By making use of IPL at Dr Sknn, we employ light energy. The light is taken in by the vessels, heating them to a temperature which causes them to contract or spasm, thus closing them off. In the weeks that follow, the broken vessels are absorbed back into the body, leaving no indication of the initial mark.
