A xanthoma is a cholesterol deposit that can accumulate in many parts of the body, including the tendons and skin. They can be visible when they appear just beneath the skin's surface as a yellow discoloration, and while they are not typically painful, they can be somewhat unsightly. Fortunately, they are removeable through chemical treatments, surgery, laser, or cryotherapy.
The condition is genetically related, and as such it can also be an indicator for high cholesterol in the body as well as for certain lipid metabolism disorders.

[YEA] 11/07/2008: D.G Douglas from Long Beach, California, USA writes: "For years I've had Xanthelasmas (fatty deposits) around the orbit of my eye. I've had them surgically removed several years ago but they soon returned. After reading of the many healing uses for garlic, I decided to give it a try. I cut medium sized cloves in half and applied the juice to the deposit. I would hold the clove on the affected area for 10-15 minutes using slight pressure. After about 5 minutes, I could feel a slight burn. I continued this regiment for 3 days. After each treatment the size of the deposit was reduced and finally dried up after 3 treatments. It appeared to draw the fat to the surface which I removed with tweezers on the 3rd day. Presently I'm continuing this process on the other deposits. I've found fresh oily garlic when cut works best. I'm quite happy with the results. It also provided relief from the pain and swelling. Thank you for clinic and my oppurtunity to contribute."

You may have just saved me oodles of money with an oculoplastic surgeon! I tried your technique using organic apple cider vinegar, but to no avail. It did flatten out the deposit some, but it would never disappear. Congratulations on your success. I am definitely heading out to buy some garlic, and will give this a shot. Working around the eyes is very dangerous, so I was worried about using the vinegar. My primary care physician told me he would remove it if it happened to be anywhere other than my eye area. So -- I've been pricing specialists. I will be thrilled if I can master this with garlic of all things! As a side note, I removed a skin tag in a scary spot under my right eyelid near my lashes with Iodine. It was amazing. It hasn't come back yet either. You've made my day with this remedy. I just pray it works for me."
