Syringoma

Have you noticed small bumps under the eyes, especially near the lower eyelids, that don’t disappear over time? These could be syringoma-benign tumours of the sweat ducts that typically form firm, skin-coloured or yellowish lesions beneath the surface. Though harmless, syringomas can be cosmetically distressing, particularly when they appear in clusters or near the delicate eye area.

Which Areas Can It Treat?

Lower eyelids

The most common area affected. Syringomas in this region often resemble bumps under the eyes on the skin or small lesions mistaken for cholesterol deposits. Syringomas in this area are commonly referred to as syringoma eyes, particularly when they appear in symmetrical clusters
Cheeks and upper face

Syringomas in these zones may be confused with milia or sebaceous cysts under eye. Our laser resurfacing methods target the underlying sweat gland cyst structures, safely removing clusters without harming nearby tissue.
Neck and chest

Less frequent but still possible, these sweat gland bumps can appear due to genetics or hormonal triggers. Treatment here typically requires fewer sessions than on the face.
Around the eye socket

Clients often ask about cyst under eye treatment or cysts under eyes, not realising they may actually be syringomas. Our experienced dermatologists assess and recommend a tailored approach.

How It Works

At rtwskin clinic, we use ablative and fractional laser techniques to treat syringomas with accuracy and minimal skin trauma. Our specialists often use the Erbium YAG laser, especially on darker skin tones, or a combination of CO₂ and fractional laser for more resistant growths.

The laser penetrates the skin to vaporise the sweat duct tumours while leaving the surrounding skin largely intact. Laser treatment is especially effective for syringoma on face, where visibility is highest and cosmetic outcomes are most important.

For deeper clusters, multiple sessions may be needed to achieve full clearance. Our treatments focus on reducing the visibility of lesions without causing pigmentation changes or scar tissue.
