We compute the Lie symmetry algebra of the equation of Helfrich surfaces and we show that it is the algebra of conformal vector fields of $R^2$. We also show that in the particular case of the Willmore surfaces we have to add the homothety vector field of $R^3$ to the aforementioned algebra. We prove that a Helfrich surface that is invariant w.r.t. a conformal symmetry is a helicoid and that all such surface solutions satisfy one and the same system of ordinary differential equations obtained by symmetry reduction. We also show that for the Willmore surface shape equation the symmetry reduction leads to two systems of ODEs. Then we construct explicit solutions in the case of revolution surfaces. The results obtained can be extended to the study of PDE problems in $2$ spatial dimensions admitting conformal Lie symmetries.
Keywords: vesicle shape, invariant solutions, conformal vector fields, symmetry reduction, Helfrich-Canham bending energy, membrane systems., Symmetries of PDEs, Willmore surfaces.
