At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is also employed by the NHS and private hospitals in the UK for treating Portwine Stain safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. The system emits light at particular wavelength ranges, targeting absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin. This allows us to treat Portwine Stain at various sizes and depths, whilst causing minimal damage to the adjacent skin. Following the procedure, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body and there is rarely any sign of the initial lesion.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Bolton - Benefits
At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL to utilise light energy. The light is soaked up by the Portwine Stain which heat to a point that they contract and/or break down, and are sealed. In the weeks following, the damaged vessels are naturally taken in by the body so that hardly any evidence of the initial lesion is left behind.
