Milia Removal

Summary Content

Milia removal is a safe and effective dermatological treatment designed to eliminate small, white or yellow cysts filled with keratin that develop just beneath the skin. These tiny bumps—commonly located around the eyes, cheeks, nose, and forehead—occur when dead skin cells and keratin become trapped below the skin’s surface. Though milia are harmless and non-inflammatory, they can be cosmetically concerning and difficult to treat without professional intervention.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, our specialists perform precise, hygienic milia removal using advanced tools and techniques. Depending on your skin type and the severity of the condition, treatments may involve manual extraction, light exfoliation, topical retinoids, or laser therapy. Trying to remove milia at home can risk infection or scarring, so professional care is the safest and most effective option.

Whether you're dealing with isolated milia or frequent breakouts, our dermatology team will tailor a treatment plan to help restore clear, smooth skin. With expert care and minimal recovery time, milia removal can reveal a brighter, more even complexion.

What is Milia Removal?

Milia removal involves the professional extraction of small, keratin-filled cysts located just beneath the skin’s surface. These bumps typically don’t resolve on their own and are often unresponsive to over-the-counter remedies. A dermatologist uses sterile, precise techniques to remove them safely without harming the surrounding skin. This quick, low-risk procedure helps restore a smooth, clear complexion.
