Milia treatment at It’s Me and You Clinic in London, Kingston upon Thames and Surrey – professional milia removal using extraction, chemical peels and targeted skincare solutions.

What is Milia?

Milia are small, white or yellowish keratin filled cysts that develop when dead skin cells become trapped beneath the surface of the skin instead of shedding naturally. These tiny bumps commonly appear around the eyes, cheeks, nose, forehead, and eyelids, where they form firm, smooth, pearl like lesions that are often resistant to standard skincare products.

Unlike acne spots, whiteheads, or pimples, milia do not contain bacteria or pus and cannot be safely squeezed or extracted at home. Attempting to remove milia yourself can irritate the skin, increase the risk of scarring, and potentially lead to infection.

Milia can develop in people of all ages and are often associated with sun damage, heavy skincare products, reduced skin exfoliation, ageing, and natural skin renewal processes. They are particularly common around the delicate eye area, where the skin is thinner and more prone to trapping keratin beneath the surface. While harmless, milia can affect skin texture and appearance, leading many individuals to seek professional milia removal treatments. Without appropriate treatment, milia may persist for months or even years. Some people may develop recurring milia, particularly if underlying skin congestion or unsuitable skincare products are not addressed.

At It's Me & You Clinic in Kingston upon Thames, we provide safe and effective milia removal treatments designed to clear stubborn milia while protecting the surrounding skin. Patients from Surbiton, Richmond, Twickenham, New Malden, Esher, Cobham, and surrounding Surrey and South West London areas regularly visit our clinic for professional milia extraction and skin rejuvenation treatments.

Causes of Milia

What Causes Milia?

Milia develop when dead skin cells and keratin become trapped beneath the skin's surface instead of shedding naturally. Unlike acne, milia are not caused by bacteria or excess oil production, but by a disruption in the skin's normal exfoliation and renewal process.

Common Causes of Milia

Build Up of Dead Skin Cells
When the skin does not shed efficiently, keratin can accumulate beneath the surface, forming the small cysts associated with milia.

Heavy Skincare Products
Rich creams, thick moisturisers, oily products, and certain cosmetics can contribute to skin congestion and increase the likelihood of milia formation, particularly around the eyes.

Sun Damage
Long term sun exposure can thicken the outer layer of the skin, making it more difficult for dead skin cells to shed naturally and increasing the risk of trapped keratin.

Ageing and Slower Skin Renewal
As skin cell turnover naturally slows with age, milia can become more common, particularly around delicate facial areas.

Genetics and Skin Type
Some individuals are naturally more prone to developing milia due to genetic factors, skin type, or recurring skin congestion.

While milia often resolve naturally in newborns, adult milia frequently persist without treatment. At It's Me & You Clinic in Kingston upon Thames, we provide safe and effective milia removal treatments designed to clear existing milia and help reduce the risk of recurrence.

Patients from Surbiton, Richmond, Twickenham, New Malden, Esher, Cobham, and surrounding Surrey and South West London areas regularly visit our clinic for professional milia extraction and skin rejuvenation treatments.

How to Treat Milia

Milia can be difficult to remove without professional treatment because they sit beneath the skin's surface and do not respond well to standard skincare products or home remedies. Unlike acne, milia cannot be safely squeezed, and attempting to extract them at home may lead to irritation, infection, or scarring.

At It's Me & You Clinic in Kingston upon Thames, we offer advanced milia removal treatments designed to safely eliminate stubborn milia while protecting the surrounding skin. Every treatment is tailored to your skin type and the severity of the condition to ensure the best possible results.

Chemical Peels
Medical grade chemical peels exfoliate dead skin cells, improve skin renewal, and help reduce the likelihood of future milia formation.
