Hey guys! I meant to clarify that these products should not be used on the eyelids. The ingredients can be very irritating to your eyelids. They are meant for milia on the cheeks, chin, and nose. For milia on the eyelids, see your derm for removal.

It is hyperpigmented (I look like I have a dirty neck) and it's also VERY dry, with scaly patches of dry skin. Which product would you suggest would be best for milia, hyperpigmentation and radiation damage scaly skin? If I need to buy two, I can do that if they aren't too expensive (widowed and in reduced circumstances, yadda yadda). Oh not that it matters I suppose but my cheek and ear are very dry too but not scaly like my neck. I had 39 radiation treatments for 39 weekdays in a row. Thank you if you can help me.

Already using retinol nightly and chemical peel 1-2x weekly. Patience is not a strong suit of mine lol. I remember seeing in another video (I *think* from Cassandra Bankson but not 100% sure) that gentle - GENTLE - physical exfoliation can help too. Take a few extra seconds while cleansing and rub the millia with your fingers. Super simple. Once I started doing this, it seemed to help me immensely. Or totally could be coincidence and my natural skin cycle has finally come around lol. Regardless, when I looked in a mirror earlier, the millia I'd had for weeks now look like they are finally going away! Yay!!

Hi Dr Dray, although I'm not prone to milia I want to reassure people with sensitive skin that they can use retinoids. I have both rosacea and eczema prone skin which can be hypersensitive, but I worked my way up slowly and carefully to my current regime of tretinoin 0.05% on alternate nights to my azelaic acid. This is keeping my rosacea controlled although occasionally if I have a product reaction (despite patch testing), I have to skip both for a few days. It took a long time and careful preparation to get to this stage, but the results have been so worth it. It's worth a try, but be very cautious initially. Best wishes.

The niacinamide serum made all the difference. So now, I just use the 10% niacinamide serum in the morning along with spf 50, and 0.1% tretinoin at night.

How do I find a good dermatologist? I'm not American. Every dermatologist I see just wants to put me on medications that's not good for the liver, and kidneys. Like ro-accutane, which I've been on three times. My whole face has dark red skin, cystic acne, hyper pigmentation, spider veins, oily skin, black heads, and large pores. I like your videos.

Thank you for your great suggestions Dr. Dray! You’re my favorite! I have been using adapolene under my mask. I work in a hospital and the 13 hour mask wearing shifts were giving me milia due to all the moisture under the mask. I know I should probably be wearing sunscreen even though I work indoors

Great video. My derm just removed one on my neck and I had one on my face a while back. I asked about them and the derm told me the name of it and showed me what it looked like after removing it, but never once bothered to tell me how to possibly prevent them or anything. This was helpful.

Dr. Dray - you noted not to use any of these products on the eyelids but that is exactly where I have the milia. On my eyelid and in towards the corner of my eye. Are we just out of luck for treatment if the milia is on the inner corner of the eyelid? My Derm would not do an office procedure nor would he suggest an RX for it. Please help!

I removed mine by scraping off the skin with tweezers and then was able to squeeze out the milia. Left a small hole and bled a bit but healed nicely. So happy it’s gone! The small amount of pain was so worth it! I had a fairly large one on the inner corner of my bottom lash line near my tear duct.

I use Amlactin lotion to help exfoliate the milia away from my eye area including the lid (even though it’s not recommended 🤷♀️). I take a cotton swab and dab the teeny tiniest bit of lotion directly on the milia and nowhere else. Do not spread it around. I do this 3-4 times/week until it’s gone. I also use a washcloth in the shower to gently exfoliate the eye area to help the process. Some go away in a week or two. Some take longer.

Hi Dr. Dray. I don't know if this is a question that you want to answer, but I have been thinking about this for a while. So, I love watching you and your life seems very appealing to me- I like that you have your hobbies, have a steady work schedule, and have a nice community to talk to. I would like to live a life like that, and I think I will. I don't have too much of an interest in getting into a relationship, getting married, or having kids. However, part of that is because I'm not so good at talking to others and I've never been in an intimate relationship before in all my 23 years. I don't know if you chose that lifestyle or if you are like me who doesn't really know where to start when it comes to intimate relationships. If you don't care to answer, I wonder if anyone else in your community lives a lifestyle like yours. Don't get me wrong- I LOVE my life, and if it stayed like this then that's a win for me honestly, but I wonder what it would feel like to experience being in a relationship and I wonder if you have any knowledge on that. If you don't care to answer, I understand as well. I wonder if other people in your community will have a response for me if they live a solitary life. I probably should look for a video more related to this issue though come to think of it. I hope you are doing well.

I am so happy to find this video! I am a 59-year-old who started having milia pop up over the past couple of years, mainly on the cheeks. I didn't have a lot of help from my dermatologist. I cannot have a 7-day downtime in my job with a deep peel. My question is this. For my dry skin, do I use these products in conjunction with my daily creams and serums? I use Cera Ve to cleanse, RoC serum and cream and an eye cream daily. I am just so ready to see something get rid of the milia! Thank you!

Not Your Mother's Mom I have milia too for over a decade around my eye, one under the brow bone, one near the nose, and one on the eyelid. My dermatologist gave me a lancet and said I could do it at home myself. But I'm afraid to try it. The one on the eyelid, I could never push in. I was hoping if I nicked it, it would drain over time. Have you taken them off on the eye, any advice?
