Milia is a big concern of many people as it results in rough and ugly skin, especially in the neck and around the eye areas. Therefore, to treat milia properly, let’s understand the milia treatment technology with Gangwhoo Cosmetic Hospital in the following article!
WHAT IS MILIA?
Milia around the eye are sweat gland tumors that are often under the eyelids. Usually, the size of these cysts is only as small as a grain of rice, but because it grows a lot and spreads, they will form an unsightly cluster. Over time, these cysts will gradually increase in size, become thicker, and easily spread to the surrounding skin areas. These skin areas will tend to appear more wrinkled and prone to aging than usual.
CAUSES OF MILIA
In order to find the most effective milia treatment method, we must first understand the causes of milia. There are two main causes of milia:
Milia will form due to factors inside the body:
- Hormonal disorders: Milia will often appear in women and form during periods such as pregnancy, puberty, hormonal disorders, etc.
- Sweat gland disorders: With the sudden increase in sweat that blocks and enlarges the sweat glands to form milia.
- Genetics: Genetics will also affect whether or not your body will develop milia.
External factors that cause milia to develop:
- An unhealthy diet is high in fat and lacks nutrients to nourish the skin. The skin will be weakened creating conditions for the development of milia.
- Insomnia, prolonged stress, exposed to a lot of light from electronic devices make the skin age prematurely.
- Not removing makeup thoroughly and improperly exfoliating the skin are also the causes of the stagnation of sebum causing milia.
THE MOST ADVANCED MILIA TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY NOWADAYS

These are very normal and common symptoms after milia treatment, so you do not need to worry. if these symptoms do not subside or worsen, you need to contact a doctor for advice.

- In the first 3-5 days, it is recommended to gently clean the skin: The newly treated skin is still healing, so it needs to be cleaned very gently with a physiological saline solution with a concentration of 0.9% to clean the skin and prevent infection. It is necessary to clean the treated skin regularly several times a day to prevent bacteria on the surface of the hair follicles that can cause infection and negatively affects the results of milia treatment.
- Regularly use skin recovery creams: After milia treatment, the doctor will prescribe types of effective skin recovery creams, which will help the healing process to take place quickly. Skin recovery creams should be used 3 times a day by applying a thin layer to help the skin recover quickly.
- Avoid peeling off the scabs: you should let the skin scabs fall off naturally, you must not arbitrarily use your hands to peel off the scabs or use force to let the scabs fall off.
- Use strong sunscreen: UV rays in the sun or in electronic devices can create UV rays that can harm the treated skin area. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly apply sunscreen to better protect the skin. At the same time, if you use sunscreen regularly, it will also help prevent the risks of milia recurrence.
- Use moisturizer after the skin scab fell off: After the skin scabs had fallen off, the young skin is not protected, so it is easy to dry and hyperpigmentation. Therefore, you must regularly moisturize the skin with products containing vitamin C to help balance skin tone with the surrounding skin.
2. What should you eat to treat milia?
- Eat more vegetables and fruits that contain fiber and vitamin A such as gac fruit, carrots, pumpkin, peas, sweet potatoes, fresh milk, etc.
- Drinking enough water every day will enhance the body’s metabolism and limit the secretion of sebaceous glands. Drinking enough water is also good for many internal organs of the body.
- Eat foods rich in vitamin C such as guava, grapefruit, lemon, orange, kiwi, tomato, pineapple, vegetable, etc.
