Had Undergone Removal Of The Cholesterol Spots From Eye Lids. Had Burn Spots Now Gone But Left With White Patches. Remedy?

hi doctor. here goes my question : about 3 months back i have done removal of the cholesterol spots from the upper and lower parts of my eyelids. This is done by a skin doctor with a machine called XP machine. immediately after that my skin became dark and burned. but after 15 days or so the burn spots have gone but since then the white patches on the above and under the eyelids are still there. I have tried potato and cucum juices, haldi paste, honey, aloevera juice etc. but of no use. How do I get rid of these white patches, since these look very ugly.
regards,
Papia Chatterjee

DEAR SIR/MADAM

CHOLESTEROL SPOTS NEAR THE EYES ARE CALLED XANTHELESMAS, THEY OCCUR DUE TO INCREASED CHOLESTEROL LEVELS IN THE BLOOD WITH LIPID IMBALANCES.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR THIS IS TO CONTROL BLOOD CHOLESTEROLS WITH THE HELP OF APPROPRIATE STATINS

FASTING LIPID PROFILE ESTIMATION IS THE CORNER STONE OF TREATMENT IN THIS PATIENT.

THANKS
