At Dr Sknn we employ the Lynton Lumina, an advanced Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is also used by the NHS and private hospitals around the UK, to treat Portwine Stain securely and successfully for skin types I-IV. By emitting light in a particular wavelength ranges at Dr Sknn we target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin allowing us to treat Portwine Stain of various sizes and at various depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. Subsequent to treatment the impaired vessels are absorbed by the body and barely any trace of the original lesion is evident.
Doctor Led Portwine Stain Somerford - Benefits
At Dr Sknn, we make use of IPL to benefit from light energy, which is then taken up by the Portwine Stain and heated to a level that causes them to spasm and/or close off, forming a seal. In the weeks that follow, the damaged vessels are naturally taken in by the body, leaving no trace of the initial lesion.
Why Choose Dr Sknn for Portwine Stain
At Dr Sknn, a detailed medical history and physical examination, including photographs, will be conducted before the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment is administered. This is the opportunity to discuss any worries, expectations, results, or queries that you may have. Before the treatment, any risks and post-treatment advice associated with the IPL treatment should be discussed, and a consent form should be signed to confirm this.
