I got mine when I was 16 til now there are still there 😢they look so bad 💔😭😭😭😭I wish I could send you a picture so you see and tell me how to remove them
Do you think the eyemax by skinbetterscience is still ok for sensitive skin patients? I would love to know what you have heard from your patients on it!
I remove some with apple cider vinegar, like you can do with warts. I left a cotton swab soaked in it on there for several hours, after I removed and a day went by, it scabbed up and fell off. Is this safe? Can I continue to do this? Just seems like one of the most convenient home remedies
Is using cerave moisturizing cream on the face going to have a similar effect as slugging? It contains petrolatum. A lot of moisturizers do, in fact. Please explain which moisturizers are not okay for milia-prone skin. Thanks!
Hello, you can do the steps I listed for prevention such as use regular exfoliants in the form of AHA/BHA or retinol/retinoid, and also consistent sun protection
I started to get milia in my 60's. I had a large one between my eyebrows removed. I had 4 smaller ones on edge of my nose that I got rid of with retinol. But using retinol I need to protect my eyes with Vaseline. Before I started the Vaseline I had the retinol migrate to an eyelid and burn that skin...painful! So how to use retinol on my face and not have that happen. Maybe try the eye cream you mention??
I keep getting milia and I’m now in my early 30s. Will exfoliating and the retinol creams helps get rid of it? Or is that only for prevention and I need to go see someone to get it removed? Now that I’ve been exfoliating, I’m getting dry patches under my eyes with like flaky skin
I got them after using a under eye cream
Thank you! I’ve been struggling with Milo’s breakouts and I am now certain it’s because I don’t use sunscreen.
I actually got milia from using RoC eyecream, as one of my friends did too.
Oh no, sorry to hear! Did it have retinol?
@@TeawithMD I thought RoC eyecream all had Retinol in it. Is it not true?
I got milia under both eyes. I been using Vaseline on my face over 20 yrs. I didn't realize it caused milia😢
Great video, very informative
Glad you enjoyed it!

What is the at home cream recommended for treatment of existing milia?
I recently heard that castor oil is olso good, what do you think?!
What about on eyelid?
Removal with a professional!
Loved the video ❣️
Thank you!
Do they come back after ?!
I have milia in my face since i am young 🥺🥺 i dont know milia still on my face 🥺

Yes, that product is very suitable for sensitive skin! It's one of the few that are great for sensitive skin

Could I use an ice cube to numb the area, then use a sharp blade to slice it off!?
I would not recommend doing that at home, risking infection and scarring

Hello! Cerave is not the same as Vaseline in terms of the consistency; Vaseline is purely an occlusive and very thick
question please responddd, after removal what can you do to make sure it doesn't come back

Yes, there is a risk of retinol irritation especially around the sensitive skin near the eyes. Try a gentle retinoid like the skinbetter eye max!
@TeawithMD thank you 😊

The topicals can help with small milia but if it’s not getting rid of them after a few months I’d go see someone to have them extracted!
p̶r̶o̶m̶o̶s̶m̶
I get more milia after taking vitamin D vitamin
another question what are some good moisturizers to use in the night
Great information.. thank you. Our dermatologist was not keen on removal of the milia. He said.. they'll come back!!
They can…but sometimes they don’t, with proper skincare and careful exfoliation and avoidance of occlusive products!
Tretinoin and adapalene would be great treatments for milia. At least that' s my take on it.
Yes they are! Retinoids are one of the treatments you can do at home for milia
