Understanding Milia: What You Need to Know

Milia are small, white or yellowish bumps that appear on the skin's surface. Often mistaken for whiteheads, these harmless but unsightly bumps are actually collections of dead skin cells trapped beneath the skin. While they're completely harmless, many people find them cosmetically bothersome.

Key characteristics of milia:

  • Small, raised white or yellow bumps

  • Typically 1-2mm in diameter

  • Most commonly appear on the face, especially around the eyes

  • Cannot be squeezed or extracted like regular spots

  • May appear individually or in clusters

Important: Never attempt to squeeze or scratch milia, as this can lead to infection or scarring.

Professional Milia Removal with Cryopen Technology

Why Choose Cryopen Cryotherapy?

Our Cryopen treatment offers superior precision and safety compared to traditional removal methods. Unlike manual extraction techniques that can leave scars and risk infection, Cryopen uses controlled freezing technology to safely eliminate milia.

How Cryopen Works:

  • A fine jet of nitrous oxide is precisely applied to the milia

  • The rapid freezing causes cellular damage to the unwanted tissue

  • The milia naturally breaks down and disappears

  • Surrounding healthy skin remains unaffected

Treatment Benefits:

  • Painless procedure – no numbing cream required

  • Precision targeting – affects only the milia, not surrounding skin
  • No downtime – return to normal activities immediately
  • Permanent results – treated milia are completely removed
  • Minimal side effects – only temporary slight redness possible

Prevention: Reducing Future Milia Formation

While milia can develop on anyone, certain practices can help minimize their occurrence:

Skincare Recommendations:

  • Use gentle, non-comedogenic skincare products

  • Avoid heavy, oil-based creams and products

  • Incorporate regular exfoliation (2-3 times weekly)

  • Apply daily SPF protection

  • Consider products with salicylic acid for gentle skin renewal

Lifestyle Factors:

  • Limit excessive sun exposure

  • Avoid tanning beds

  • Maintain a consistent skincare routine

  • Stay hydrated for overall skin health

Types of Milia: Understanding the Variations

  • Primary Milia: The most common type, appearing randomly on healthy skin

  • Neonatal Milia: Common in newborns, usually resolving naturally

  • Secondary Milia: Develops after skin trauma, burns, or certain medical procedures

  • Multiple Eruptive Milia: Numerous milia appearing suddenly, often on the face and upper body

  • Milia en Plaque: Large, raised patches containing multiple milia

Alternative Treatment Options

While we recommend Cryopen as the most effective solution, other treatments include:

  • Topical Medications: Specific retinoids or steroid creams may help certain types of milia, though results vary and require professional consultation.

  • Hyfrecator Treatment: Uses electrical pulses to cauterize milia, but this method can be more painful and invasive than cryotherapy.

  • Manual Extraction: Traditional dermatological extraction, which carries higher risks of scarring and infection.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Who can develop milia? While common in babies, milia can affect people of all ages. Adults are particularly susceptible following sun damage, skin trauma, or as part of the natural aging process.

  • Is the treatment painful? Cryopen treatment is completely painless. Most patients describe feeling only a brief cold sensation during the procedure.

  • How effective is the treatment? Cryopen cryotherapy provides excellent results with permanent removal of treated milia. Some individuals prone to milia may develop new ones over time, but these can be treated as they appear.

  • What can I expect after treatment? You may experience mild redness at the treatment site, which typically resolves within a few hours. There's no downtime, and you can resume normal activities immediately.

  • Can milia around the eyes be safely treated? Yes, our precision Cryopen technology allows for safe treatment of milia around the delicate eye area with minimal risk to surrounding tissue.
