Syringomas are benign adnexal neoplasms that develop from eccrine sweat ducts. They are mostly found in early adulthood, with a female gender predominance. They typically occur on the face, particularly the periorbital region, which has a high demand for cosmetic enhancement. Management of periorbital syringomas is challenging, with no consistently effective treatment available. Intradermal injection of botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) is a new treatment modality for periorbital syringoma. We present a 53-year-old female patient with periorbital syringoma who was successfully treated with intradermal BTX-A monotherapy as a painless, cost-effective treatment that produced better long-term results than carbon dioxide laser.
