Understanding Milia Removal Process

The milia removal process begins with a consultation where our expert esthetician, Norma Khal, will assess the areas of concern. Using the latest technology, a small device is carefully used to target the milia, which are then removed with minimal discomfort. The procedure is non-invasive, involving only a minor amount of discomfort, usually described as a slight pinch or gentle pressure.

The LAMPROBE is a unique device that enables skin care professionals to non-invasively and rapidly treat a range of common Minor Skin Irregularities™. This innovative tool allows us to effectively remove milia and other skin imperfections with ease and precision. The procedure is quick and comfortable, requiring little to no downtime. We focus on delivering results that restore your skin’s smooth, clear appearance. With Norma Khal’s expertise, you can trust that your skin will receive the care it deserves, leading to a more confident, radiant you.

The treatment typically takes only a few minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated. Post-treatment, there is no need for downtime, allowing clients to go about their day immediately. The procedure is effective in removing even stubborn milia, and the results are visible right after treatment.

Aftercare and Results

After milia removal, the treated area may experience slight redness or mild swelling, but this generally resolves within a few hours. To ensure optimal results, we recommend avoiding direct sun exposure and using a gentle skincare routine. Please avoid getting the treated area wet for the first 48 hours after your session. Mild moisturization is encouraged, and sunscreen should be applied if you must be in the sun.

While the procedure does not involve extensive downtime, clients should refrain from picking or touching the treated area to avoid irritation or infection. Results are typically noticeable immediately, with smooth, clear skin in the treated areas. While milia can sometimes return, follow-up treatments can be scheduled to address any recurring blemishes. By following aftercare instructions, clients can maintain healthy, radiant skin and prevent future milia formation.

How long does the procedure take?

Milia removal is a quick and efficient procedure. The treatment time typically ranges from a few minutes to around 15 minutes, depending on the number and location of the milia being treated.

These side effects are common and typically subside within a few hours, making it a low-risk procedure. While rare, some individuals might experience slight dryness or flakiness, which usually resolves within a few days. The skin in the treated area may also be sensitive for a short time, but no serious side effects are typically associated with the procedure. Following post-treatment care instructions helps to ensure a smooth recovery and minimizes any potential discomfort.
