Xanthelasma consists of yellowish fatty deposits in the skin, often near the inner corners of the eyes. Controlled removal may be suitable in selected cases. Depth, surface area and available skin determine the method.

For bothersome yellowish eyelid deposits, we assess depth, extent and available skin. A blood test to check lipid levels may also be medically appropriate and can form part of the treatment planning.

The diagnosis is clarified before removal, including whether tissue examination may be required. We discuss the risks of infection, delayed healing, scarring, pigment changes and damage to surrounding tissue with you. The extent of treatment, protective measures and aftercare depend on the location of the lesion.

The eyelid lesion is documented and the treatment area marked. After suitable local anaesthesia and preparation, the required eye protection is put in place.

The selected deposits are carefully removed using the agreed method. Surrounding eyelid skin is taken into account, and aftercare depends on depth and surface area. Local anaesthesia usually keeps discomfort during removal to a minimum, although you may feel the injection and brief pressure.

At the end of the procedure, we assess the immediate response of the treated area. The first priority is monitoring wound healing in the eyelid area. Aftercare and follow-up appointments are tailored accordingly.
Tell us about previous eyelid treatments, eye symptoms, known lipid disorders and medications. Do not change prescribed medication on your own. Acute irritation or inflammation around the eyes must be assessed first.
Care for the eyelid area according to your personal instructions and protect it from friction. Use eye make-up only after medical clearance. Please report increasing pain, redness or oozing; seek immediate medical help for any visual disturbance.
