📢 Important Advisory for Patients Considering Cosmetic/Medical Procedures
Dear Valued Patients,
We believe in providing you with the best care and guidance as you consider cosmetic procedures to enhance your well-being. It is crucial for us to ensure that you are well-informed and understand the nuances of these procedures, including their limitations and potential risks. Please take a moment to read and absorb the following points:
No Guaranteed Outcomes: It is essential to comprehend that no medical treatment or surgery can be guaranteed to result in absolute benefits or complete recovery. We want to emphasize that there are no guarantees of being "cured" or achieving specific outcomes.
Informed Decision Making: Prior to undergoing any cosmetic procedure, we encourage you to educate yourself about the procedure's details, potential risks, and anticipated outcomes. This empowers you to make informed decisions aligned with your personal goals and expectations.
Risk Considerations: No procedure is entirely risk-free. All medical interventions, including cosmetic procedures, carry inherent risks. Understanding and accepting these risks is a vital part of your journey towards achieving your desired results.
Doctor's Skill and Competence: We assure you that our team possesses the necessary expertise and competence in their respective fields. We commit to applying our skills with reasonable care and competence to ensure your safety and well-being.
Timing and Emotional Well-being: Optimal results from cosmetic procedures can be influenced by emotional factors. We recommend considering the timing of your procedure, especially in relation to major life events such as relocation, job changes, bereavement, relationship changes, or the arrival of children. Emotional stability contributes positively to your overall experience.
Your health and satisfaction are our top priorities. By acknowledging these points, you are taking an active role in your journey towards self-enhancement. If you have any questions or concerns, our dedicated team is here to provide you with the guidance you need.
Thank you for trusting us with your care.
How many sessions are required?
How many sessions are required?
The healthier your skin/hair are when starting out, the easier it will take the treatment. The sessions must be spaced to allow adequate healing in between. Skin/Hair that are healthy enough to regenerate fairly quickly will be able to endure more sessions of a treatment in a shorter period of time.
While these aren’t the only factors involved, they are the most common. Don’t be surprised, however, if your doctor mentions another situation that could impact the length and/or number of sessions you may require. Every person is different, and your circumstances will be unique only to YOU.
Xanthelasma, or xanthelasma palpebrarum (XP), is a harmless, yellow growth that appears on or by the corners of your eyelids next to your nose. Cholesterol deposits build up under your skin to form a xanthelasma.
Having xanthelasmas could be a sign of another condition, such as:
- Diabetes.
- Hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol).
- Thyroid problems.
Researchers have found that having xanthelasmas means it’s very likely that you’ll have these conditions in the future:
- Heart disease.
- Heart attack.
- Atherosclerosis (even if your cholesterol levels are normal).
- High cholesterol.
Who does xanthelasma affect?
Half of the people with xanthelasmas have high cholesterol levels. Healthcare providers usually see these levels in people with the kind of high cholesterol you get from your parents or some liver diseases.
However, the other 50% of people with xanthelasmas don’t have high cholesterol.
Risk factors for xanthelasma include being assigned female at birth or having:
- Overweight.
- A tobacco product habit.
- High cholesterol.
- Diabetes.
- High blood pressure.
- Family history of high cholesterol or xanthelasma.
You can get xanthelasmas between ages 20 and 70. Most people get them between ages 35 and 55.
How common is xanthelasma?
Xanthelasmas are the most common type of xanthoma (cholesterol deposits) that affect your skin. However, only about 1% of people have xanthelasmas.
What tests will be done to diagnose xanthelasma?
A xanthelasma diagnosis doesn’t require tests, but your healthcare provider may want to check your:
- Cholesterol levels to check for high cholesterol.
- Thyroid function to see if you have a thyroid problem.
- Blood sugar to find out if you have diabetes.
- Liver function to find out if you have liver disease.
How are xanthelasmas removed?
Although xanthelasmas don’t hurt you, you may want to remove them anyway. Xanthelasma removal methods include:
- Laser surgery.
- Radiofrequency ablation (sometimes with stitches afterward).
- Hyfrecator1000
These xanthelasma treatments usually work. However, you may need several sessions to remove your xanthelasmas.
Xanthelasmas often come back after removal, no matter which treatment you get. The chance of recurrence can be lowered if you work with your doctor on lowering your cholesterol.
Side effects of the treatment
Side effects from removing xanthelasmas include:
- Skin color changes.
- Scars.
- Pain.
- Eyelid turning inside out or looking like it’s getting pulled in further toward your eye.
How long does it take to recover from this treatment?
It can take three or four days to recover from xanthelasma treatment, depending on which treatment you get. Some side effects go away in days, while others (like skin discoloration) take a couple of months to go away.
