Pearly penile papules (PPP) are harmless, but for aesthetic concerns, consider consulting a dermatologist for professional advice; some home remedies like tea tree oil, castor oil, and aloe vera gel may help reduce inflammation, but there's limited scientific evidence for their effectiveness; medical treatments like carbon dioxide laser therapy, cryotherapy, or radiosurgery may be recommended by a dermatologist, but over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are not typically advised for PPP removal.

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.
