Small hard bumps that never come to a head.

Milia are keratin trapped under the surface with no opening, so squeezing only marks the skin. Removal is a proper procedure, one seed at a time — and most areas clear in a single session.

With no opening to the surface, there is nothing for pressure to release. The seed has to be reached — the skin softened, then a tiny opening made with a sterile lance so the seed lifts out whole.

Around the eye the same work takes longer, because the skin is thin and marks easily. That is why it is priced and booked separately.

Most areas clear in a single session. Deeper seeds take a second visit three to four weeks later, and we tell you upfront if we expect that.

Nothing occlusive around the eye while it heals, and sunscreen. Then rethink whatever heavy product started it.

Seeds are removed at the pace your skin heals cleanly, so nothing is left marked or scarred.
