Portwine Stain Wilmslow

At Dr Sknn we utilise the Lynton Lumina, a cutting-edge Intense Pulsed Light System (IPL) which is also employed by the NHS and private hospitals throughout the UK for the safe and effective treatment of Portwine Stain on skin types I-IV. By releasing light in specific wavelength ranges, we are able to target the absorption peaks of haemoglobin and oxy-haemoglobin, thus enabling us to treat Portwine Stain of varying sizes and depths without doing too much harm to surrounding skin. After the treatment, the damaged vessels are reabsorbed by the body, leaving no trace of the lesion.

By Dr Sknn, light energy is harnessed through the usage of IPL. This light is then taken in by the Portwine Stain, causing them to become heated and constricted, and eventually collapsing. Eventually, these damaged vessels are then absorbed by the body over the following weeks, leaving no sign of the original lesion.

At Dr Sknn, a comprehensive medical history, a physical examination and pictures will be taken during the consultation. There will be the opportunity to voice any fears, expectations, replies or queries that you may have. Prior to any treatment, the potential risks and any post-treatment advice linked to the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy will be gone over in full and a consent form will be signed. Furthermore, a patch test will be performed if the area being treated is fresh, to ascertain it is appropriate.
