What Is Xanthelasma?

Xanthelasma are soft, yellowish patches that build up on or around the eyelids. These bumps form when cholesterol gets deposited under the thin skin near your eyes. They are harmless but very stubborn. You cannot squeeze them away or hide them with makeup.

Many people find these patches frustrating. They can make the eye area look older and tired. The great thing is that we can remove these marks without any risk at our Newcastle clinic. We can either use the fractional CO2 laser procedure or a small surgical technique, depending on your skin condition.

How Do We Perform Xanthelasma Removal?

A precise, gentle method chosen to suit your eyelids

Dr Tanov uses a precise, gentle method to clear your eyelids. First, he applies a local anaesthetic so you feel no pain at all. Then, based on the size and depth of your xanthelasma, he picks the best tool.

He may use the fractional CO2 laser to gently vaporise the patch, or opt for a tiny microsurgical cut. The work is careful and quick. Your eyelid heals naturally, leaving you with clear, smooth skin where the yellow bumps once were.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the procedure painful?+

Not at all. We rely on a powerful local anaesthetic injection that fully numbs the eye area. You stay comfortable and relaxed from start to finish, feeling only a tiny pinch at the very beginning.

What is the recovery like?+

You may notice mild swelling, slight bruising, or a small scab for 1 to 2 weeks. Most people feel fine returning to desk work and social plans within just a few days.

Who is suitable for this treatment?+

It is brilliant for anyone bothered by yellow cholesterol patches on their upper or lower eyelids. Dr Tanov will thoroughly check your eye health beforehand to make sure you are a perfect candidate.

Are the results permanent?+

Yes. The exact patches we clear are gone for good, leaving the area lovely and smooth. However, if you have an underlying cholesterol issue, new patches may form later, so we always advise a healthy lifestyle.

Are there any risks or side effects?+

Because a specialist eye surgeon performs the treatment, the risks to your eye are incredibly low. Minor temporary swelling and a very faint micro-mark are normal parts of the healing process, and these settle nicely over time.
