Portwine Stain Poynton

At Dr Sknn, we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) that is used by both the NHS and private hospitals across the UK, to treat Portwine Stain with safety and efficiency on skin types I-IV. The light emitted by the machine is tuned to a particular frequency range that targets absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, allowing us to treat diverse Portwine Stain of different sizes and depths with minimal damage to the nearby skin. After the procedure, the affected vessels are naturally taken in by the body, leaving practically no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, we put IPL to use to make use of light energy, the light is absorbed by the Portwine Stain and then heated to the stage they constrict and/or collapse and are sealed. Over the subsequent weeks, the impaired vessels are naturally taken in by the body, leaving barely any indication of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, during the consultation, a medical memoir, as well as a physical examination and photographs, will be performed. You have the chance to express any questions, expectations, results, or concerns that you may have. Before the treatment, any post-treatment advice and risks associated with the treatment are discussed to ensure that you completely understand them and a consent form is signed. Furthermore, if a new area is being worked on, a small Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) patch test shall be done to confirm its suitability.
