Portwine Stain Birthmark Withington

At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a pioneering Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is also employed by the NHS as well as private medical facilities across the UK, to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark securely and effectively on skin types I-IV. By delivering light in particular wavelength ranges, we at Dr Sknn can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, enabling us to treat Portwine Stain Birthmark of different sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the adjacent skin. After the treatment, the impaired vessels are taken in by the body and typically leave little evidence of the initial lesion.

By using IPL from Dr Sknn, we take advantage of the light energy, which is soaked up by the Portwine Stain Birthmark until they are heated to the point of spasm and/or collapse and are sealed. In the time ahead, the injured vessels will be naturally assimilated by the body, leaving scarcely any evidence of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the converse a medical history including a physical examination alongside photographs are taken. In the chat there will be a chance to bring up any worries, expectations, results, or queries you may have. Before the treatment any post treatment guidance and potential issues related to the treatment will be gone over to make sure you understand them fully and a permission form is signed. In addition, if it is a new area being treated a slight patch test will be done to make sure it is suitable for Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
