Is xanthelasma removal available on the NHS?
Xanthelasma removal is rarely funded by the NHS, as it is usually considered a cosmetic concern. Exceptions may apply for unusually large lesions affecting eyelid function, but access remains limited. Blue Fin Vision® offers prompt private access to advanced laser, surgical and chemical removal without lengthy waiting times.
Will I need more than one xanthelasma treatment session?
Some xanthelasma lesions, particularly larger or deeper ones, may require more than one treatment session to achieve optimal results. Chemical peel (TCA) treatments often require multiple sessions. Your consultant discusses the likely number of sessions and associated costs during your consultation, so you can plan accordingly.
Is there a discount for treating both eyelids at once?
Yes, Blue Fin Vision® offers reduced pricing when both upper or lower eyelids are treated in the same session. This reflects efficient bilateral treatment and reduces overall cost compared to treating each side separately. Your consultant provides a personalised quote during your assessment.
