Could you tell me whether I should consult a dermatologist or an eye specialist for treating Xanthelasma? I'm also looking for recommendations on the best doctor in Kolkata for this condition. Any advice would be appreciated!

Xanthelasma is a skin condition that appears on the eyelids and is usually treated by a dermatologist. In some cases, an ophthalmologist may also be involved, especially if the xanthelasma is affecting the eye itself.

I have two sebaceous cysts on my face and I'm not sure what to do about them. What are the treatment options available, and if surgery is needed, how much would it cost? I'm a bit worried about scarring or complications.
Sebaceous cyst treatment options range from observation to surgical removal, depending on the cyst's size, location, and whether it's causing pain or inflammation. Surgical removal, if needed, can be done through various techniques, with costs varying. Scarring and potential complications should be discussed with your doctor.
