Portwine Stain Macclesfield

At Dr Sknn we employ the Lynton Lumina, a modern Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL). This cutting-edge technology is used by the NHS and private hospitals all over the UK to treat Portwine Stain in skin types I-IV in a safe and effective manner. By emitting light in certain wavelength ranges, the absorption peaks of haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin can be targeted. This allows for the treatment of Portwine Stain of varying sizes and depths without causing too much harm to the surrounding skin. Afterwards, the affected vessels are reabsorbed by the body, leaving no trace of the lesion.

Here at Dr Sknn, we take advantage of light energy by using Intense Pulsed Light. This light is soaked up by the Portwine Stain, causing them to heat to a point where they go into spasm and/or break down, thereby sealing them. Over time, the broken vessels will be taken away naturally by the body, leaving no sign of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, an intensive medical history, a physical examination and photographs will be taken during the consultation. You will have the chance to express any apprehensions, aspirations, answers or queries that you may have. Prior to any treatment, the probable risks and any post-treatment advice connected to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy will be gone over thoroughly and a consent form will be signed. Moreover, a patch test will be performed if the area being treated is new, to make sure it is appropriate.
