Doctors' responses
-About 40–50% of people with xanthelasma have normal lipid levels. Other contributors: Genetics (very common) Local fat metabolism in eyelid skin Age-related skin changes Insulin resistance (even without diabetes) So the idea that “it only happens because of cholesterol” is a myth. -It can be removed (best: laser or radiofrequency) -Recurrence is possible but NOT guaranteed (many never get it again) But no medicine can remove it.
How come in such a era and science getting so forward no cure for this ? Even cancer treatments are there why science is lagging so behind knowing this is very common yet annoying state
This can be removed with laser , radio frequency are there, but not only medicines , we can try the lepas, agnikarma but again we going towards procedure.
