They will return after not using the garlic for a good while. It took me about a month before my eyes were fully healed, without scabs. I could then cover them up with makeup but they were back in about 6 months and I had to do the process again. Today I decided to try the castor oil treatment. Hoping it works better than the garlic.

hi Garlic does get rid of it, but only to some extent ( how much you are able to bear and for how long you can go through with it) It is in direct proportion to your pain threshold. I could do it for about a week and 3 times a day, my xanthoma however were very large so it diminished by 40%. Had I continued with it, could have gone completely but not for good. As we all are witness to it that the re occurrence is this problems middle name. If you are going to use the castor oil then you need the patience of the Gods because seems very slow, or maybe I thought it was working. Am not going to comment on that because I really did not find any results with its use.
All the best and Yes garlic works, but can you work with it is the real question. I could not bear it for more than a week.

I too have Xanthelasma on both of my eyes, bottom and top. I tried it on the bottom ones first because they are not as big as the top ones. I put a fresh garlic on them for 3 days and after 3 days I was swollen, red, it was scabbing and some spots were bleeding. It took 3 weeks to heal but after 3 weeks the Xanthelasma was flatter and smaller.
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.
