Portwine Stain Birthmark Romiley

At Dr Sknn we utilise the Lynton Lumina, an advanced Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is also used by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to safely and effectively treat Portwine Stain Birthmark on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in a particular wavelength ranges at Dr Sknn we target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin resulting in being able to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark of various sizes and at various depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. After treatment the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and no indication of the initial lesion is left.

Through IPL, Dr Sknn takes advantage of light energy; the light is taken in by the Portwine Stain Birthmark, heating them to the degree that they contract and/or collapse, therefore sealing them. In the following weeks, the compromised vessels are broken down by the body and little or no trace of the original lesion is seen.

At Dr Sknn, a medical history and physical examination will be taken with photographs taken. During the session any worries, expectations, results, or questions can be brought up. Before the treatment any post-treatment advice and potential risks related to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy are discussed in detail, with a consent form to be signed. Additionally, if a new area is being treated, a small patch test will be completed in order to guarantee suitability.
