What is the best treatment for syringoma?

There are various treatment options for syringomas, but the best approach depends on individual circumstances. Generally, as syringomas are benign lesions, they usually do not require specific treatment if no discomfort is present. When syringomas affect appearance or cause discomfort, the following treatments may be considered: 1. Physical therapies: Such as laser therapy and liquid nitrogen cryotherapy, which are suitable for patients with a limited number of papules and localized lesions. Ablative lasers can be used in laser therapy, while liquid nitrogen cryotherapy destroys lesion tissue through low temperature, though it may cause side effects such as pain and blistering. 2. Surgical treatment: For larger lesions or more severe cases, surgical excision or dermabrasion may be considered. However, surgical approaches may increase the area of skin damage and should therefore be carefully selected. 3. Medication: If local symptoms such as itching occur, topical treatments like calamine lotion can be used to relieve discomfort.
