Portwine Stain Timperley

At Dr Sknn we make use of the Lynton Lumina, a cutting-edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is also employed by the NHS and private hospitals all over the UK, to treat Portwine Stain safely and efficiently on skin types I-IV. By radiating light in chosen wavelength ranges, absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin are pinpointed, thus enabling us to handle Portwine Stain of various sizes and depths while causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. After the treatment, the damaged vessels are assimilated by the body, leaving little or no sign of the initial lesion.

Dr Sknn makes use of IPL to utilize light energy, this light is taken in by the Portwine Stain which are then heated to a temperature causing them to spasm and/or cease working. In the days that come after, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body, meaning very little or no evidence of the original injury remains.

At Dr Sknn, during the inspection a medical chronicles including a physical survey will be implemented including images. Through the consultation there will be a chance to debate any worries, expectations, outcomes, or enquiries you may have. Beforehand to the treatment any post-treatment advice and perils associated with the therapy will be discussed making sure you totally understand them and a approval document is signed. Also, if it is a new area being treated a minor patch test will be done to ensure compatibility with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL).
