Portwine Stain Birthmark Wardsend

At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a high-tech Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is employed by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark in a secure and effective manner on skin types I-IV. By releasing light at particular wavelength ranges at Dr Sknn we can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, which enables us to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark of different sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. Following treatment the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body leaving no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we take advantage of IPL to utilise light energy, the light is taken up by the blood vessel which heats them to a point where they go into spasm and/or shrink and seals. Over the following weeks the harmed vessels are naturally assimilated by the body so little or no sign of the initial lesion remains.

At Dr Sknn, during the discussion a medical history, physical examination and photographs will be taken. During the discussion there is the opportunity to mention any concerns, expectations, results, or queries you may have. Before the treatment any post-treatment advice and the risks connected to it will be discussed making sure you comprehend them fully and a consent form is signed. Meanwhile, if it is a fresh area being treated a small patch test will be done to ensure it is suitable for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
