Syringoma is a type of benign proliferation, often related to one's endocrine system. Some cases may also be associated with prolonged use of cosmetics around the eyes, leading to poor local sweat discharge. Generally, this disease is not contagious, and cannot be spread through contact or touching with hands. The most common treatment approach is to visit a dermatology department in a standard hospital and have it removed with a laser. However, this condition may recur, and some people may not be cured after just one treatment. If it reappears, laser treatment can be used again. Often, multiple treatments can completely cure it. After recovery, it is advisable to exercise more, avoid using cosmetics around the affected area, refrain from consuming spicy and irritating foods, and avoid staying up late.

Can syringoma be removed by laser?

Currently, the most common method for treating syringoma is using laser for direct removal. Syringoma is generally related to familial inheritance or local abnormal development of sweat ducts. Often eating spicy and stimulating foods, or using poor-quality eye creams or cosmetics can also lead to the occurrence of syringomas. The most common treatment still involves direct removal with a laser, followed by the application of medications to repair the wound. This helps prevent the condition from recurring. However, there is currently no way to completely eradicate syringomas to achieve a one-time, non-recurrent treatment. After treatment, it is advisable to exercise more and sweat more to increase the secretion of sweat. Avoid using poor-quality cosmetics topically to prevent clogging and recurrence of the condition, and strengthen your exercise regime to enhance immunity.

How to treat hidrocystomas around the eyes?

Syringomas around the eyes are mostly related to one's endocrine system or local sweat gland activity in that area, and in some cases, may be due to genetic inheritance. Once this condition appears, the most common treatment method is to visit a dermatology department at a reputable hospital and have them removed with a laser. Common oral and topical medications are generally ineffective and should be avoided. To prevent recurrence after recovery, it is advised to avoid using makeup, particularly greasy eye creams or cosmetics around the eyes. Regular exercise, which promotes sweating, frequent bathing, maintaining a cheerful mood, avoiding spicy or irritating foods, and not staying up late are also recommended.

Post-laser precautions for Syringoma

Syringoma is a type of benign proliferation. The most common current treatment is the direct use of lasers or ionization to completely remove it. After the procedure, shallow wounds might form on the treated area, so it's important to keep it dry and avoid getting it wet. During the scabbing period, it's best to avoid spicy and irritating foods, abstain from using cosmetics on the affected area, and wait until the scab has completely dried and fallen off; afterwards, the condition is generally considered resolved. However, syringoma can recur, so long-term dietary restrictions against spicy and irritating foods are advised. Avoid staying up late and experiencing anxiety or stress. After recovery, it's also recommended to enhance exercise and strengthen immunity. Be cautious with the use of cosmetics on the affected area, especially those that are greasy and likely to clog pores.

Will syringoma disappear on its own?

Syringoma is a type of benign tumor that originates from sweat glands, commonly found around the eyes, and predominantly seen in adult women, especially those over 40 years old. Generally, it is asymptomatic. Syringomas do not disappear on their own and require physical treatment methods for removal. This condition does not affect health, but for cosmetic reasons, removal can be accomplished using laser methods. Histopathologically, the distal sweat ducts exhibit tadpole-like changes. It is important to avoid picking or squeezing them, as using medications is ineffective; only physical treatment measures can facilitate their removal.

The difference between syringoma and flat warts

Syringoma and flat warts are two completely different diseases with significant differences. First, syringoma is a type of hamartoma and belongs to tumors, while flat warts are skin diseases caused by viral infections. Secondly, syringomas often appear symmetrically, primarily around the eyes or on the forehead, and are accompanied by itching symptoms. On the other hand, flat warts usually do not have a symmetrical distribution; they are scattered or densely distributed, and generally do not exhibit itching symptoms.
