How to remove syringomas permanently?

Doctor's Answer

Presuming that it is syringoma, I believe you know by now that syringoma is a benign growth from the sweat gland. Did it grow back again after CO2 or it did not improve at all?

If it did not reduce at all after laser, you might need to burn it deeper. Although CO2 laser helps to vapourise it, it may regrow again, unfortunately.

Some find that the result may last longer if we burn deeper but it also increases the risk of scarring as a result of excessive burnt, especially if you mentioned that you have a lot of it.

Microneedling is not useful and there is no point doing it again.

Have a proper assessment to be sure that it is syringoma.

In the meantime, have a great weekend and keep smiling!

Elias
