Safe and Precise Xanthelasma Removal
What Is Xanthelasma?
Xanthelasma are cholesterol-rich deposits that develop beneath the skin, most commonly around the eyelids. They often appear as flat or slightly raised yellow patches and may gradually increase in size. Although they are not harmful, they do not usually resolve without treatment.
Why Consider Xanthelasma Removal?
Many people choose treatment because xanthelasma are highly visible and can become more noticeable over time. As they do not disappear naturally, removal is often the most effective way to improve appearance. Treatment can help restore confidence and create a smoother, clearer look around the eyes.
Xanthelasma Treatment / Removal
Xanthelasma removal is performed using shortwave diathermy to carefully target and treat the cholesterol deposits beneath the skin.
A fine probe delivers controlled heat to the affected area, breaking down the deposits while preserving the surrounding delicate skin. This method allows for precise treatment, particularly important for areas around the eyes.
The treated area will gradually heal, with minimal disruption to the skin. The procedure is designed to improve the appearance of the area while maintaining a natural, even result.
