Milia,
while generally harmless, can be a persistent and somewhat bothersome skin
concern. These tiny, dome-shaped cysts often appear in specific areas of the
face, with the most common locations being the eyelids and beneath the eyes, as
well as on the nose and cheeks.
While
milium cysts are frequently associated with newborns, they can also emerge in
adult life. The development of milia is linked to the entrapment of keratin, a
protein found in skin, hair, and nail cells, beneath the skin's surface.
This
trapped keratin forms small, white, or yellowish cysts. It's important to note
that while milia itself doesn't typically pose health risks, its occurrence may
be more frequent on damaged or compromised skin. Individuals with a history of
burns, blisters, sun damage, or those using steroid creams may be more prone to
milium cysts.
At
Skin Sense GP Clinic in Chelmsford, we offer a range of effective treatments
for milia removal. These options include minor surgical procedures, micro needling,
skin peels, retinoid creams (containing Vitamin A), and Plexr Soft Surgery.
