Syringoma Removal
Syringomas are a relatively common problem, and are found more frequently in women compared to men.
Overview
What are syringomas?
Syringomas are yellow bumps found frequently clustered over the lower eyelids and upper cheeks. These are benign skin sweat gland tumours, which grow from the deeper skin layer (the dermis).
Most people want to remove them for cosmetic reasons. Their visibility and most common placement on the face mean they affect one’s overall appearance.
What is our solution?
The AGNES machine is the latest in cosmetic technology.
This is the latest revolutionary device that focuses on ‘Selective Sebaceous Gland Destruction’. This involves precise destruction of the sebaceous gland with no thermal injury to visible skin, eliminating syringoma’s at the root.
