What Is Xanthelasma?
Xanthelasma are soft yellow cholesterol deposits that develop within the skin around the eyelids.
Although medically harmless, many patients choose treatment because the deposits can:
Become more noticeable over time
Increase in size
Affect confidence
Create an uneven appearance around the eyes
Advanced Electrolysis Treatment
Advanced electrolysis uses a fine sterile probe to deliver a carefully controlled electrical current directly into the affected tissue.
This precision technique allows the xanthelasma to be treated while protecting the surrounding skin as much as possible. As healing progresses, the treated tissue naturally resolves, allowing healthier skin to develop.
Treatment is carefully tailored according to the size, depth and number of deposits present.
