What Are Syringomas Under Eye?
Do you notice tiny, raised bumps around your eyes or on your lower eyelids? These could be syringomas under eye, a common skin condition that most often affects women. The bumps are usually very small, between 1 and 3 millimeters, and can appear white, flesh-colored, or slightly yellow.
Although they are harmless and not a health risk, syringomas can affect the texture of your skin and be bothersome for cosmetic reasons.
Symptoms of Syringomas
- Small, firm bumps on the lower eyelids
- Flesh-colored, white, or yellow appearance
- Usually painless and non-itchy
- May appear in clusters
Syringomas are generally slow-growing and do not cause medical complications, but many people seek syringoma treatment for aesthetic reasons.
Syringoma Treatment Options
If you want to reduce or remove syringomas under eye, there are two main treatment methods:
1. Electrodessication
Electrodessication involves using a fine needle to deliver a controlled electric current to the syringoma. The heat shrinks and destroys the excess tissue, allowing the skin to heal smoothly. This method is precise, making it suitable for small growths close to the eyes.
2. Ablative Laser Therapy
Ablative lasers, such as CO2 or erbium lasers, vaporize the excess tissue that forms the syringoma. This treatment is highly effective but requires an experienced practitioner to ensure safety, especially around the delicate under-eye area.
Both methods are designed to target the bumps while minimizing damage to the surrounding skin.
Choosing the Right Practitioner
Since syringomas under eye are tiny and located near sensitive areas, it’s essential to select a qualified dermatologist or cosmetic specialist. Proper technique and equipment ensure safe and effective results.
