Xanthelasma Treatment in Denver
Remove Yellow Cholesterol Bumps Around the Eyes Safely & Effectively
If you've noticed yellowish, soft, plaque-like bumps around your eyes—particularly near the inner corners of your eyelids—you may have xanthelasma. While generally harmless, these cholesterol deposits can affect your appearance and self-confidence. At Denver Dream Medspa, we offer cosmetic treatment options to safely reduce or remove xanthelasma for smoother, clearer skin around the eyes.
What Is Xanthelasma?
Xanthelasma is a form of cholesterol deposit that appears as:
Yellow or cream-colored flat bumps
Usually near the upper or lower eyelids, close to the nose
Soft or slightly firm texture
Often symmetrical on both sides of the face
Though xanthelasma can be linked to elevated cholesterol levels, it can also occur in people with normal lipid profiles. It is not contagious or dangerous but is often removed for cosmetic reasons.
Xanthelasma Treatment Options at Denver Dream Medspa
Our recommendations are designed to safely target and reduce xanthelasma with minimal discomfort and downtime:
🔬 Laser Treatment for Xanthelasma
We recommend Advanced fractional or CO₂ lasers. They can precisely ablate the cholesterol deposits layer by layer while preserving the surrounding skin. This option offers excellent cosmetic outcomes with minimal scarring risk.
🧴 Medical-Grade Skincare for Prevention
We offer guidance on products that support skin barrier repair and recommend that patients consult with a primary care provider for lipid screening if needed.
⚕️ Collaborative Care for Lipid Management
If appropriate, we may refer clients to medical providers for cholesterol testing and management to help prevent recurrence.
