When I have trouble around my eyes, I get worried every time I look in the mirror...ใ ใ
You might mistake this for acne, but they say it could be a milia around the eyes!
I've been concerned about my eyelids lately, so I've been researching ways to manage them. So, I'm going to share with you what I've learned about them, from their causes to treatment and prevention!
1. Causes of milia around the eyes
Seborrheic keratosis is a small, granular lesion that occurs when the epidermal cells within the skin proliferate excessively. Let me explain the specific causes!
1) Makeup residue
Many people wear makeup every day. Makeup residue left on the skin can cause sebum and impurities to harden and clog pores, leading to milia.
2) Frequent skin irritation
It's said that frequent skin irritation can easily lead to the development of milia. Habits like daily makeup application or frequent eye rubbing can also contribute to the development of milia around the eyes.
3) Skin damage
It is said that milia can also develop after skin damage such as blisters, peels, or burns.
2. Treatment of eyelid seborrheic keratosis
Some people pop milia at home when they have them. Squeezing them incorrectly can lead to inflammation and bacterial infection, so it's not recommended to pop them yourself.
1) Extrusion
If you develop a sebaceous cyst, it's best to visit a hospital and receive treatment. They say the cyst can be removed by making a hole with a thin needle and then extracting the sebum with an extractor.
2) CO2 laser
Another option is to consider the CO2 laser. This laser can remove not only seborrheic keratosis but also freckles, moles, and other skin conditions.

It is important to prevent the development of milia around the eyes.

It is also recommended to avoid the habit of rubbing the area around your eyes too much, and avoiding applying irritating medications will help prevent symptoms.
3) Apply sunscreen
Since seborrheic keratosis often occurs after sunburn, it is said that diligently applying sunscreen on a regular basis can also help manage the symptoms!
