Xanthelasma Removal in Northampton
If you notice yellowish growth developing around your eyelids and under the eyes, you may have xanthelasma. Xanthelasma are harmless cholesterol-rich deposits that might make you feel self-conscious because of their appearance. Over time, they may increase in size or become uncomfortable, so if you want to get them removed, it’s best to do so early.
At The Blemish Clinic in Northampton, we provide precise and safe xanthelasma removal treatment using advanced electrolysis. This highly targeted procedure breaks down the deposits with minimal discomfort.

What is Xanthelasma & What Causes It?
Xanthelasma is a benign skin condition indicated by soft, yellowish deposits on the eyelids. It’s caused by excess cholesterol in the body, which gets deposited near or on your eyelids.
Xanthelasma isn’t harmful, but it doesn’t go away on its own. In fact, it may continue to grow in some cases, which can become uncomfortable. Many people choose xanthelasma treatment for cosmetic reasons or to prevent further growth.
Xanthelasma is primarily caused by the accumulation of cholesterol or lipid deposits beneath the skin surface. These deposits might indicate that you have high cholesterol levels, but that’s not the only cause. They can also be found in people with normal cholesterol levels due to genetic factors and metabolic conditions. If you have familial hypercholesterolemia, a hereditary condition, you may develop xanthelasma at an early age.
Diabetes, liver disease, or hypertension also put you at a higher risk of xanthelasma. When you have any of these disorders, your body struggles to break down fats, and excess lipids accumulate and appear as visible patches on the skin. Xanthelasma can also be a warning sign of cardiovascular disease, such as atherosclerosis.
Finally, lifestyle factors like a diet high in saturated fats, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption put you at risk of developing xanthelasma.
I had skin tags on my neck and underarms treated over 2 sessions. The results were amazing and I was so pleased with the overall experience. Really professional and friendly. Thank you!

I was so pleased Charlotte could remove a mole I’d had (and hated) my whole life. It was a simple straight forward procedure and I was really happy with results. I would highly recommend Charlotte.

Xanthelasma Removal
If you’re based in Northampton and would like to have your xanthelasma patches removed, book a consultation with us at The Blemish Clinic.
We offer safe and effective xanthelasma removal using advanced electrolysis, a non-surgical procedure that delivers a low-voltage thermolysis current via a thin probe. This breaks down the lipid deposits without causing much damage to the surrounding skin. Electrolysis is a precise treatment that requires minimal downtime.
When you book a consultation with us, our skin experts will assess your skin and suggest whether you’ll need single or multiple sessions, depending on the size and depth of the xanthelasma deposits.
If you have any additional concerns or questions, feel free to call us.
Our Process
-
Book Your Consultation
We don’t offer any walk-in services, so all our consultations must be booked in advance via phone, email or our booking link. This ensures confidentiality and our undivided attention.
2. Visit The Clinic
Your consultation comes first. Arrive at the clinic at the scheduled time on the day of your appointment and our specialists will begin by understanding your concerns, and explaining the treatment process, post-care and any additional information.
3. Get Your Treatment
Our xanthelasma treatment is usually completed within an hour and is non-invasive. Downtime is minimal and we will provide recommendations for quick healing and are here to answer questions if you have any.
Tips for Before & After
Our care doesn't end when you leave our clinic after your xanthelasma removal. We are here to support you and will continue to answer your questions to make sure your recovery period is smooth.
Before Your Xanthelasma Treatment Process
Before your appointment, it’s best to avoid any other cosmetic procedures and steer clear of chemical products. This can reduce the effectiveness of the procedure and increase the sensitivity of your skin.
Xanthelasma Removal Aftercare
It can take some time to see results, and you might require follow-up sessions, but this varies from person to person, so we’ll share this information during your appointment. Generally speaking, we recommend refraining from washing the treated area with hot water, as this may cause aggravation.
