Portwine Stain Stockport

At Dr Sknn we avail ourselves of the Lynton Lumina, a state-of-the-art Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) used by the NHS and private hospitals all over the UK to safely and effectively treat Portwine Stain on skin types I-IV. By emitting light in particular wavelength ranges, we at Dr Sknn can target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thus allowing us to treat Portwine Stain at different sizes and depths, while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. Subsequent to the treatment, the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and any evidence of the initial lesion is barely perceptible.

At Dr Sknn, we use Intense Pulsed Light to make use of light energy. The radiance is soaked up by the Portwine Stain, heating them to a degree where they constrict and/or submit, thereby sealing them. Over the next few weeks, the damaged vessels are naturally broken down by the body, leaving no trace of the initial lesion.

At Dr Sknn, when you come in, a medical history and physical examination will be done, with photographs taken. Plus, you'll have the chance to converse with the doctor about any worries, desired results, responses or queries during the consultation. Before the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment is done, all post-procedure guidance and any risks associated with the procedure will be clarified to make sure you fully comprehend them, and a consent form is signed. In addition, a patch test is conducted if it is a new area being treated to make sure it is suitable.
