Xanthelasma Removal At A Glance
Everything you need to know before your consultation
What Is Xanthelasma Removal?
Xanthelasma are soft, yellow patches that build up on the skin of your eyelids, most often near the inner corner of the eye. They form when cholesterol-rich deposits gather just under the skin's surface. These patches are harmless and painless, but they tend to grow slowly over time and can make many people feel self-conscious.
Xanthelasma removal gently clears these deposits to give your eyelids a smoother, more even look. Because the skin around the eyes is so delicate, this treatment is best carried out by an experienced eye specialist who truly understands the area.
