Portwine Stain Birthmark SK9

At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is also used by NHS and private hospitals around the nation, to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark securely and effectively on skin types I-IV. By emitting light at certain wavelength ranges, at Dr Sknn we target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark at different sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the nearby skin. Following the procedure, the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and little or no trace of the initial lesion is left.

At Dr Sknn, through the use of IPL, light energy is taken advantage of - the light is taken up by the Portwine Stain Birthmark, heating them to the point where they spasm and/or collapse and seal. Over the following weeks, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body, so there is little or no trace of the initial mark.

At Dr Sknn, a medical history including a physical check-up will be completed during the consultation, including photos being taken. During this appointment, there will be a possibility to bring up any apprehensions, expectations, outcomes, or queries you may have. In advance of the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment, any post-treatment advice and risks affiliated with the process will be talked through, making sure you completely understand them and a consent paper is written. Furthermore, if it is an unacquainted area to be treated a minor test patch will be conducted to make sure it is suitable.
