Milia Seeds Removal

Milia, often called milia seeds or oil seeds, are small, harmless cysts filled with keratin, a protein found in the skin. They form just beneath the surface and usually appear around the eyes, cheeks, and nose. Although milia cause no symptoms or health concerns, they can leave the skin looking bumpy or uneven, which leads many people to seek removal for smoother-looking skin.

Milia seeds are removed through a quick, minimally invasive procedure. At Medical Aesthetics, each seed is cleared using radiosurgery, a precise technique that releases the trapped keratin with minimal impact on the surrounding skin.

Because milia are tiny surface cysts rather than larger lumps that need surgical excision, the treatment is one of several minor skin surgery procedures used to clear benign growths from the skin. Other types of skin cyst, such as sebaceous cysts, call for a different removal approach, while other harmless growths, including skin tags, are treated using similar in-clinic methods.

Consult Dr Robert Ong to find the approach best suited to you.
