Xanthelasma removal
At the Dermarevolta clinic in Bratislava, we offer safe removal of xanthelasma to rid you of unsightly fatty deposits around the eyes. Are you bothered by yellowish patches on your eyelids and aware that xanthelasma never disappears on its own? Whether classic surgical excision or the gentler radiowave method (Surgitron) is more suitable for your case, our medical team will carry out the procedure under local anaesthesia with a focus on fast healing and a good cosmetic outcome.
Procedures we perform
Xanthelasma of the eyelid develops when fatty deposits build up under the skin. It does not disappear with dietary changes alone; it is a persistent cosmetic issue that requires professional treatment. Although this deposit is not dangerous, it can be visually disruptive and make your eyes look unnecessarily tired. At Dermarevolta, we focus on the gentle removal of xanthelasma, taking into account the delicate aesthetics of the eye area. Our specialists assess your case and choose the optimal approach, whether that is precise surgical excision or the Surgitron radiowave method, aiming for clear skin with virtually no visible scarring.
Professional diagnosis and consultation
Before every procedure, the doctor thoroughly examines your eyelids and, based on how deep the fatty deposit lies, determines which treatment for xanthelasma is medically best suited for you.
Surgical removal of xanthelasma
Classic surgical excision is the most effective method for deeper deposits. The surgeon removes the entire fatty deposit in one go, significantly reducing the risk of recurrence.
Radiofrequency method (Surgitron)
A modern approach to xanthelasma removal using the Surgitron radiowave device. This method is exceptionally gentle on the surrounding tissue and allows for fast healing with a minimal risk of scarring.
Electrocoagulation (electrocautery)
A method that uses electric current to destroy the fatty tissue. It is effective for removing smaller deposits and also provides immediate control of minor bleeding.
Removal of multiple deposits
We also manage more complex cases where fatty deposits merge or form several separate areas at once. Treatment is tailored to achieve a precise and aesthetically balanced result.
Painless local anaesthesia
Every procedure in the sensitive eye area is performed after careful numbing of the skin. Thanks to gentle local anaesthesia, xanthelasma removal is comfortable and virtually painless for the patient.
Xanthelasma removal price list
If you have been diagnosed with xanthelasma, the cost of surgical removal or removal by another method is always assessed individually, based on the size and number of fatty deposits. During your initial consultation, the doctor will prepare an exact quote for you. Thanks to local anaesthesia, the removal procedure itself is completely painless.
