At Dr Sknn the Lynton Lumina is employed, a modern Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) utilised by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK for the safe and effective treatment of Portwine Stain on skin types I-IV. By releasing light in specific wavelength ranges, we can target the absorption peaks of haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thus allowing us to treat various sizes and depths of Portwine Stain while causing as little damage as possible to the surrounding skin. Following the treatment, the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and little or no trace of the initial lesion remains.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Didsbury - Benefits
Dr Sknn makes use of IPL to use the energy of light. This light is then taken in by the Portwine Stain, heating them until they become constricted and/or collapse, thus sealing them off. In the weeks that follow, the damaged vessels are then absorbed by the body, leaving no sign of the original lesion.
Why Choose Dr Sknn for Portwine Stain
