At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a top-of-the-range Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) employed by both NHS and private healthcare establishments across the UK to manage Portwine Stain safely and effectively on skin types I-IV. By beaming light in particular wavelength ranges, we at Dr Sknn can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thus allowing us to address Portwine Stain of varying sizes and depths, while causing minimal damage to the encompassing skin. After the treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and any sign of the initial lesion is barely perceptible.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Hazel Grove - Benefits
At Dr Sknn, by using IPL, we employ light energy. The light is taken up by the Portwine Stain, causing them to heat to a point where they constrict and/or collapse, sealing them. Over the next few weeks, the damaged vessels will be broken down naturally by the body, leaving no trace of the initial lesion.
