Targeted Treatment For Milia
Milia removal is a professional treatment designed to safely address small, white cysts that form just beneath the surface of the skin. Our milia removal services in Ottawa use precise techniques to gently treat milia while minimizing disruption to the surrounding skin, helping restore a smoother, clearer appearance.
What Are Milia?
Milia are small, firm, white or yellowish bumps that commonly appear around the eyes, cheeks, nose, and forehead. They occur when keratin becomes trapped beneath the skin’s surface and are not caused by bacteria, oil, or poor hygiene.
Because milia do not respond to exfoliation, skincare products, or extraction at home, professional treatment is often required for safe and effective removal.
How Milia Removal Works
Milia removal is performed using a controlled, professional technique that targets the trapped keratin beneath the skin. A fine, sterile probe is used to precisely treat the milia while protecting the surrounding tissue.
Clients may experience a brief heat or tingling sensation during treatment. Discomfort is minimal, and downtime is typically limited, depending on the treatment area.
Why Choose Professional Milia Removal?
Professional milia removal is recommended because:
Milia cannot be safely removed at home
Incorrect extraction can damage the skin or cause scarring
Treatment requires precision, especially around the eye area
Results are immediate and targeted
Our approach ensures milia are treated carefully and appropriately based on their size, depth, and location.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Many milia can be addressed in a single session. However, the number of treatments required depends on the quantity, depth, and recurrence of milia.
Some clients may develop new milia over time, particularly in areas prone to congestion or around the eyes. Follow-up treatments may be recommended as needed.
What to Expect After Treatment
Following milia removal, the treated area may appear slightly red or develop a small surface mark that heals naturally. Most clients experience minimal downtime and can return to normal activities shortly after treatment.
Post-treatment care instructions will be provided to support proper healing and help reduce the risk of recurrence.
