Syringoma are completely harmless, benign (non-cancerous) sweat duct tumours which appear under the eye and usually appear symmetrically. They appear as 1-3 mm bumps under the skin and can be flesh or creamy coloured.

This condition is neither harmful nor painful, but larger deposits can cause some people to feel self conscious about them.

It is important to note that we can only treat one eye at a time, so it will take at least two visits to clear the condition, and that each blemish will scab after treatment, so please plan your visits to ensure they do not clash with important events. Your treatment plan will be discussed with you during your consultation to enable you to make clear and confident decisions.

The technique used for removal is Advanced Electrolysis or short wave diathermy (known as thermolysis in the USA). Our head aesthetician has over 30 years experience and is trained and approved by Sterex International, who provide the highest level of training for medical, dental and aesthetic practitioners across the globe.

It is important to note that we cannot prevent the appearance of further lesions and while in most cases complete removal is achieved we cannot guarantee that everyone will have the same results, each person will heal differently and in some cases there may still be some discolouration after treatment.
