Portwine Stain Whiteley Green

At Dr Sknn we employ the Lynton Lumina, a leading-edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL), which is also employed by the NHS and private hospitals around the UK, to treat Portwine Stain securely and successfully on skin types I-IV. By sending out light in a specific wavelength ranges at Dr Sknn we target absorption peaks in haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin enabling us to treat Portwine Stain of various sizes and at various depths whilst causing minimal damage to the surrounding skin. Following treatment the damaged vessels are absorbed by the body and little to no trace of the original lesion is evident.

At Dr Sknn, we utilise IPL to take advantage of light energy, this is then absorbed by the Portwine Stain and heated to a degree where they start to spasm and/or collapse, in turn creating a seal. Over the following weeks, the damaged vessels are naturally reabsorbed by the body, meaning that no signs of the original lesion will be visible.

At Dr Sknn, a comprehensive consultation process is conducted which comprises of a medical history, physical examination, as well as photographs. This appointment also provides a platform to address any queries, worries, results or concerns you have. Ahead of the treatment, the post-procedure advice and the risks associated with the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment will be imparted to you, so you are conscious of the implications. To ensure suitability with this revolutionary technique, a patch test will be performed if the area is new.
