Benefits of Milia Removal

  • Immediate results with minimal irritation
  • Safe for all skin types and areas
  • No harsh chemicals or lasers used
  • Prevents future outbreaks and infections
  • Improves skin clarity and texture
  • Quick, walk-in-walk-out treatment

How It Works

Milia are tiny keratin-filled cysts that form when dead skin cells get trapped beneath the skin’s surface—often around the eyes, cheeks, or forehead. Unlike pimples, they can’t be squeezed and require sterile extraction.

At REM Laser Clinic, we use manual extraction with a sterile lancet and comedone tool to gently open the skin and remove the cyst without damaging surrounding tissue.

For some cases, we may combine treatment with skin peels or exfoliating facials to improve skin turnover and prevent recurrence.

Common Areas Treated

Microneedling is perfect for addressing:

  • Under-eye area
  • Cheeks
  • Forehead
  • Nose and chin
  • Neck or chest (in some cases)

We always assess the area first to determine the safest and most effective removal technique.

Frequently Asked Questions – Milia Removal

1. What are milia exactly?

Milia are tiny cysts filled with keratin, a protein found in skin. They form when dead skin cells become trapped under the surface.

It’s not recommended. DIY removal can cause scarring or infection. Always seek professional extraction for safe and hygienic results.

The procedure is very tolerable and quick. You may feel a slight pinch or pressure, but it’s usually painless, especially with experienced hands.

Some may disappear naturally, but many require manual removal to resolve—especially around the eyes or in recurring cases.

No, when performed by a qualified professional, milia removal is non-scarring. We use precise techniques to protect your skin.

Milia can result from blocked pores, heavy skin care products, sun damage, or lack of exfoliation. We’ll advise on prevention during your visit.
