Is this Xanthelasma? Can this be removed? (Photos)

Yes, it looks like xanthelasma. It is good to check with your medical doctor to make sure you are cholesterol is not high or other things going on. To handle the lesion itself, it can be destroyed by a number of methods including chemical or laser, or it can be cut out usually with a very nice result.

At least from the photos provided, these bumps do appear to be xanthelasmas. I have been treating xanthelasmas for decades, using low intensity electrocautery to flatten and shrink them. Following numbing with a local anesthetic, this procedure in experienced hands, should take no more than two to three minutes to complete. Please note: strict lipid control is important for diminishing the chance of new lesions appearing. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist.

This does look like cholesterol deposits. I have had success with serial fractionated CO2 laser treatments for this condition. Because of the location, preparation with globe shields and timely application of the topical anesthetics so it does not seep into the eyes takes up the majority of the time for the treatment. There is post procedure laser skin care until the skin resurfaces in 5-7 days. Usually 2 sessions (at least 6 months apart) result is satisfactory. Best wishes.
