Milia Seed VS Whitehead

In our last post, we covered the basics of Milia seeds—what they are, how they form, and how to treat them.

 

But many of you still wonder: how do you tell the difference between Milia and whiteheads? 🧐 These tiny white bumps may look alike, but treating them correctly starts with knowing the difference!

 

Whiteheads

Appearance

These are small, raised bumps that can be white or match your skin tone. They might look like tiny pimples.

 

Cause

Whiteheads form when oil (sebum), bacteria, and dead skin cells get trapped in your hair follicles. This blockage causes the pores to close, leading to whiteheads.

 

Location

Usually get to find them on areas with more oil production, like your face, chest, and back.

 

Pain

Whiteheads can become painful, especially if you try to pop them or if they get inflamed.

 

Treatment - Deep Pore Cleansing Facial

It's best to avoid squeezing them. Instead, go for professional extractions to clear them up safely.

 

Milia Seeds

Appearance

Milia seeds are tiny, hard, white bumps that sit just under the skin’s surface. Unlike whiteheads, they’re usually smooth and painless.

 

Cause

They’re caused by keratin—a protein found in the skin—getting trapped under the skin’s surface. This is different from whiteheads, which are caused by clogged pores.

 

Location

Milia commonly appear around delicate areas like the eyes, cheeks, and nose.

 

Pain

They don’t hurt, even if you press on them.

 

Treatment - Milia Seed Removal

Since Milia can’t be popped like whiteheads, they often need professional removal through extraction or, in some cases, milia seed removal laser treatments.

Our professional therapists use precise extraction techniques to gently remove Milia without damaging the skin. With our professional care, you'll leave with smoother, healthier-looking skin.

 


Aftercare Tips for Milia Seed Removal

Keep the Area Clean:

Gently cleanse the treated area with a mild, fragrance-free cleanser to prevent any infection.

 

Avoid Touching:

Do not touch or pick at the treated area to avoid spreading bacteria or causing scarring.

 

Maintain Skin Moisture:

Keep the skin moisturized to support the healing process and maintain a soft texture.

 

Avoid Makeup:

Refrain from applying makeup on the treated area until it is fully healed to avoid irritation.

 

Apply Sunscreen Daily:

Use sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to protect the healing skin and prevent hyperpigmentation.
