xanthalasma may have no cause. However, it can sometimes indicate high cholesterol, hypothyroidism, or a liver condition.

This can be a symptom of high levels of cholesterol or other fats in your blood. It’s also possible to get it even if the cholestrol levels are normal.

Most people with xanthelasma are middle aged or older. It’s more common in women than in men.

Xanthelasma is most common in people whose families are from Asia or the Mediterranean.
