At Dr Sknn the Lynton Lumina is employed, which is a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) used by the NHS and private hospitals across the UK. This allows us to treat Portwine Stain on skin types I-IV safely and effectively. By emitting light in certain wavelength ranges, we can target the absorption peaks of haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, meaning we can treat Portwine Stain at different sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. Following the treatment, the damaged vessels are taken in by the body and little or no trace of the original lesion remains.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Salford - Benefits
Dr Sknn utilises IPL to make use of light energy. Once the light is absorbed by the Portwine Stain, they are heated to the point they go into spasm and/or collapse, thus sealing them up. In the weeks that follow, the damaged vessels are naturally absorbed by the body, leaving no evidence of the initial lesion.
