What treatments have you found most effective in removing syringomas?

Most often the syringomas I have treated have been multiple small lesions around the eyes. Because it is readily available, safe, of minimal cost, and easy, I like to use pinpoint electrodesiccation. I use a Hyfrecator 2000 electrosurgical unit on the low setting with 2-3 watts. Because electrodesic...

I’ve tried most of the standard listed techniques for multiple syringoma removal. My go-to for years now has been to have my team run Lido with epi under the field with a 1-inch needle while I see other patients. I use fine forceps and Castroviejo curved scissors and superficially pinch out each les...

I usually use the erbium YAG laser with a 1 mm spot and gently ablate the lesions until most of the whitish stroma has disappeared.
