When I read this first, I just could not believe it, as all other treatments are so expensive. Thought, let me give it a try. If so many people have gained from it, I would be also one of the lucky one, who got rid of xanthoma. I tried garlic on my spots for 10-15 mints on my first day. It was burning sensation, got swollen and became red. All your post helped me to follow it on my day 2. I tried it twice for 15 mins. I am so happy, today is the fourth day and its only 20-30% left. I know it will take some time, as these are pretty old and will take some time. At least it has reduced. I apply Vaseline on these after every garlic therapy. I will keep it up till the time, it doesn't get completely vanished.
Now I don't have to explain to people about these marks and not to hide my face. Once again I started looking me in the mirror and feel happy like I did years back. Good luck to all. Thanks to all of you for your advice……. Really it helps with little money and small effort...

Anyway I came across this post about using garlic, The only garlic we had in the house was the precrushed jars of it so I tried that first and It did not work! I then left it for about 4 months and noticed my xanthomas were getting bigger so I went to the shops and bought a bulb, Sliced of a small piece and held it on my xanthoma for about 5 mins twice a day for two days! I couldnt do it more than that as this time It stung and made my eyes swell up. A few days later it started to scab and yesterday the scabs fell off! And they are gone :) YIPPEEEEE!!!! GARLIC WORKS ITS AMAZING!!!!

But after that, the skin became dark(like burnt) and in few days started peeling off and then it became wrinkled and dry with white scaling, use a good moisturiser to keep the skin hydrated and not that much noticable(hides dryness and darkness).
It takes approx a week before the skin can become back to normal with slight roughness in skin remaining. Use Retin-A 0.5 or NEXret 0.1 gel every night after 1 week to make the skin smooth and remove the wrinkles.
What I can see is that this builds a layer of skin above the xanthed area and therefore the Xanth gets completely hidden below the layers.
Xantholema cure, garlic works.
Thanks!!

Better But With Side Effects
So I thought I'd crush the garlic. I did a second round with crushed garlic for 3 days and that really burned like acid. Same thing again, swollen, scabbing, bleeding. After the scabs fell off the xanthelasma was almost all gone. So after the 3 weeks healing time, I did a third round of crushed garlic. Now all the xanthelasma on my bottom eye is gone.
I just started this week with one of my top eyes. They are really big so I guess its going to take 5 to 6 rounds. But I have to say, it works. You look like crap while you are doing it, but I guess that's the price you pay. I report back once I am done with my top ones. hope it works on them too since they are really big.
