What it is
Yellow plaques around the eyelids that have been medically assessed.
Why it appears
The visible concern can have more than one cause. Your consultation checks the diagnosis, skin or tissue involved, previous treatment and the change you would like to see.
The treatment
A carefully selected focal CO₂ procedure may reduce suitable plaques.

Technology at Highfield
A fractional CO₂ platform used for carefully selected resurfacing and focal procedures. The indication, treatment depth and recovery plan are set after medical assessment.
The device supports the treatment plan; the clinical assessment determines whether the treatment is appropriate.

This guide explains the pathway for this option. Your consultation confirms whether the diagnosis, technology and recovery fit you.
We confirm the diagnosis, treatment area, skin type, healing history, medicines and tendency to pigmentation or scarring. Some focal concerns may need a different pathway or further medical review before a laser plan is appropriate.
The platform delivers controlled columns of CO₂ laser energy. For resurfacing, untreated skin between the columns supports repair; for a focal lesion, the technique and endpoint are selected for that diagnosis. Depth and density are clinical settings, not a standard package.
Comfort measures and eye protection are used as required. Redness, swelling, crusting, peeling and temporary colour change can occur. Aftercare, sun protection and the point at which skincare can restart are explained for the exact treatment.
Change develops as the skin heals and remodels, so the review point is later than the treatment day. One session may be enough for a small focal procedure, while resurfacing can require a course. Results vary and recurrence or incomplete clearance is possible.
Your questions, answered
Yes. Xanthelasma treatment is only planned after the clinician has assessed your concern, medical history, suitability, alternatives and realistic aims.
That depends on the product or technology, the area, your response and the agreed goal. Your clinician explains the likely course and full cost before you decide.
Recovery varies by treatment and individual response. You will receive specific preparation, aftercare, expected reactions and a clear route for urgent or non-urgent concerns.
