Milia Removal at The Pinewoods Clinic, Liverpool

Milia are small, white or yellow cysts that commonly appear on the skin, especially around the eyes, cheeks, or forehead. While harmless, they can be cosmetically bothersome. At The Pinewoods Clinic, we offer expert milia removal treatments using advanced, minimally invasive techniques to safely and effectively restore smooth, clear skin.

Our treatment options include Hyfrecator electrosurgery, CO₂ laser therapy, curettage, and cryotherapy, allowing us to tailor care to your skin type, milia size, and location.

Treatment Options for Milia Removal

1. Hyfrecator Electrosurgery

The Hyfrecator uses precise electrical currents to remove milia gently while minimising damage to surrounding skin. It is ideal for small, superficial milia and promotes rapid healing with minimal scarring.

2. CO₂ Laser Treatment

CO₂ laser therapy vaporises milia with high precision, leaving surrounding tissue intact. It is particularly effective for multiple or stubborn milia and stimulates collagen regeneration for smoother, healthier skin.

3. Curettage

Curettage involves carefully scraping the milia from the skin using a fine surgical instrument. This method works well for larger or deeper milia, providing immediate results with proper aftercare to reduce recurrence.

4. Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy uses controlled freezing to destroy milia cells safely. This method is quick, effective, and suitable for small clusters of milia, offering minimal downtime and excellent cosmetic outcomes.
