Do you suffer from those small, stubborn white bumps on your face that won’t go away? Milia can be frustrating, but they need not last a lifetime. Above all, at Cryosonic, we provide gentle and accurate milia removal with the CryoPen cryotherapy. This gentle, professional treatment goes above and beyond to eliminate bumps without damaging the skin around them.
Milia are small cysts filled with keratin, which is a natural skin protein. They form just beneath the skin’s surface when dead skin cells become trapped rather than shedding as they should. Although these tiny bumps are harmless, they often do not respond to traditional skincare products and will not disappear on their own.
Milia, unlike other blemishes, is not caused by dirt clogging your pores, and there’s no opening. As such, trying to squeeze them at home can lead to scarring or skin irritation.
Here at Cryosonic, we have invested in cutting-edge cryo-technology to eliminate milia in a fast and painless way:
Milia can usually be treated with a single session, and the results are sleek, helping your skin feel softer and look clearer.
What causes milia to appear?
Milia develop when dead skin cells and keratin become trapped beneath the skin rather than exfoliating as they normally would. Frequent culprits include overly rich products, sun damage, skin trauma, and slower cell turnover as we get older.
Is CryoPen treatment painful?
Most people experience minimal discomfort. The procedure uses targeted cold, and many compare it to a quick cooling sensation rather than pain.
How long does a treatment take?
Each milia bump can be treated in just a few seconds. A full session is typically very brief, meaning you can get back to your day straight afterwards.
Will Milia come back?
Milia can recur, but there are ways to help reduce the chance:
After your treatment, your clinician will advise you on aftercare and how to look after your skin.
Is downtime required after treatment?
Aftercare is simple:
Keep the area clean and dry for 24 hours.
Do not overdo it with makeup or strong products on treated skin.
Should any small red welts or scabs appear, don’t try to pick them out — they’ll heal on their own.
A great many people go back to their daily lives immediately.
