Xanthelasma : ウィキペディア英語版
Xanthelasma

''Xanthelasma'' (or ''xanthelasma palpebrarum'') is a sharply demarcated yellowish deposit of fat underneath the skin, usually on or around the eyelids. While they are neither harmful nor painful, these minor growths may be disfiguring and can be removed.〔 They are common in people of Asian origin and those from the Mediterranean region.
Because of the hereditary component, they may or may not indicate high blood levels of cholesterol. Where there is no family history of ''xanthelasmata'', they usually indicate high cholesterol and may correlate with a risk of atheromatous disease.
A ''xanthelasma'' may instead be referred to as a ''xanthoma'' when becoming larger and nodular, assuming tumorous proportions. Still, ''xanthelasma'' is often classified simply as a subtype of ''xanthoma''.
==Treatment==
''Xanthelasmata'' can be removed with a trichloroacetic acid peel, surgery, lasers or cryotherapy. Removal may cause scarring and pigment changes, but it is an uncommon side-effect of treatment.
