The bumpy skin commonly referred to as milia is

Closed comedones, where sebum and dead skin cells accumulate inside the pores, that is Whitehead It is close to.

 

It is characterized by the pore opening being blocked, so it appears on the surface as small, white, or skin-colored bumps.

If you irritate or cause inflammation in this state, it can lead to red acne or skin troubles with pus.

Squeezing millet with your hands can increase the risk of inflammation and scarring, so if possible It is best not to touch it!

 

 

 

What are the causes of milia?

🤍 When sebum and old dead skin cells block the pore opening

🤍 When applying multiple layers of heavy oil-based cosmetics

🤍 When residue remains because cleansing was insufficient

🤍 Sweat and humidity, repetitive friction from masks or bangs

🤍 Hormonal changes such as before and after menstruation

🤍 When the skin is dry and the oil-moisture balance is disrupted

 

Acne starts when sebum and dead skin cells accumulate in the hair follicles.

Rather than washing vigorously to completely remove sebum, it is more important to manage your skin to prevent clogged pores.

 

In particular, if you experience recurring bumps on your forehead, please check to see if hair oil or bangs products are coming into contact with your skin.

Some hair products can clog pores on the hairline and forehead, causing whiteheads.

 

 

How to get rid of milia

1. Wash your face gently only twice a day.

If you wash your face multiple times or use a strong cleanser because you are concerned about small bumps, your skin barrier may be irritated.

twice a day, in the morning and evening Lather a mild cleanser sufficiently and wash gently with your hands.

Cleansing brushes, rough scrubs, or scrubbing off dead skin It is best to avoid peeling as it can actually cause inflammation. .

 

2. Temporarily reduce heavy cosmetics.

If you have suddenly developed an increase in small pimples, check to see if you have recently used any new oils, balms, or rich creams.

Rather than stacking multiple layers of skincare, it is better to keep it simple with a hydrating toner, a light serum, and a refreshing cream.

When choosing a product Non-comedogenic , Oil-free You can also check the display.

 

3. Salicylic acid slowly starting from a low concentration

Salicylic acid is an ingredient used for whitehead management as it exfoliates dead skin cells and sebum within the pores.

However, if you use it every day from the beginning, it may cause stinging or dryness.

It is recommended to start once or twice a week and check your skin's reaction.

I recommend not using scrubs or other exfoliating products on days when you use salicylic acid products.

 

4. Do not squeeze the millet directly

If you press on small bumps with your fingernails or an extractor, the inside of the pore gets damaged.

It can lead to red acne and hyperpigmentation.

For comedones that do not go away easily, it is better to have your condition checked and receive safe treatment at a dermatology clinic rather than squeezing them out yourself.

 

 

Milia Skincare Routine

STEP 1. Replenish moisture with a gentle toner

After washing your face, instead of wiping it multiple times with a cotton pad, dispense some toner into your hands and gently press it onto your skin to help it absorb.

Derma Factory Houttuynia Cordata 84% Essence Toner It is a hydrating toner with a slight viscosity.

Patting it on with your hands works well.

 

However, since Houttuynia cordata does not eliminate all milia,

It is best to think of it as soothing and hydrating.

 

 

 

STEP 2. Use a light hydrating serum

After toner, apply just one layer of a lightweight hydrating serum.

Numbersin No. 1 Pantothenic Acid Active-Up Soothing Serum It is moist like this, but

Low-oil products can be used to add moisture without making the skin feel heavy or stuffy.

 

If you are using a product for the first time, test it on a small area first rather than applying it directly to your entire face.

 

 

STEP 3. Finish with a refreshing cream

If you apply a lot of thick cream because your skin is dry, the small bumps may feel even more stuffy.

Please finish by applying a small amount of a relatively light moisturizing cream to prevent moisture from evaporating.

 

In the morning, apply a thin layer of cream and use a non-comedogenic sunscreen, and

In the evening, you can adjust the amount of cream according to your skin condition.

 

 

In such cases, I recommend seeing a dermatologist.

Even if you consistently do home care for a few weeks, small pimples

If it continues to increase or turns into red and painful acne, it is a good idea to see a dermatologist.

 

It is safest not to repeatedly exfoliate on your own, especially in the following cases.

✔ Cases where small bumps spread rapidly across the entire face
✔ Cases where itching is severe and sudden bumps of similar size appear
✔ Cases where red inflammation and pus occur together
✔ When scars or pigmentation have started to remain
✔ Cases where acne does not improve with general care

 

 

Milia are not a skin problem that disappears in a day or two.

Even with general acne treatment, it can take time for noticeable changes to appear.

Ultimately, the key to getting rid of milia is reducing the factors that clog pores and managing them consistently without irritation.

 

After simplifying the cleansing and skincare steps, lightly replenish moisture, and

If necessary, try adding the salicylic acid product slowly.

 

If the skin turns red or small bumps keep recurring, do not stick to home care alone.

I recommend getting your exact condition checked at a dermatology clinic.
