Portwine Stain East Didsbury

At Dr Sknn we employ the Lynton Lumina, a high-tech Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) used by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK to treat Portwine Stain on skin types I-IV safely and effectively. By emitting light in certain wavelength ranges, we are able to target the absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, enabling us to treat Portwine Stain of different sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the neighbouring skin. After the treatment, the affected vessels are reabsorbed by the body, leaving no trace of the lesion.

At Dr Sknn, light energy is tapped into through the usage of IPL. Once this light is taken in by the Portwine Stain, they heat up to the point of spasm and/or collapse, thus blocking them from leaking. In subsequent weeks, the damaged vessels are then absorbed by the body, leaving no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the consultation, a medical background and physical assessment that includes snaps will be accomplished. Throughout the appointment, there will be a possibility to address any apprehensions, targets, results, or questions you may have. Before the procedure, any following guidance and hazards connected with the treatment will be discussed making sure that you wholly understand them and a consent form will be signed. Furthermore, if it is a new area being treated a minor Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) test will be done to ensure it is appropriate.
