Milia can occur in people of all ages, but they’re most common in newborns. They’re typically found on the face, eyelids, and cheeks.

A facial sauna is useful in treating milia and unclogging pores as it helps loosen and remove dead skin cells and debris. Soak a clean towel in hot water and wring out the excess of water. Place the towel on your face for a few minutes and then remove it. Do it daily for 7 days at least. If you don't get the desired results, you may come back and consult me.

Alternatively, mix two tablespoons of honey and one tablespoon of jojoba oil. Apply it on your face and wash it ...more

Home remedies and medicines do not work like a magic wand that one week will be enough.
Honestly, creams do not help.
It needs to be excised. You should get it cured from a dermatologist.
Doing it at home can leave bad marks.

Hello. Milia has to be removed by a dermatologist through cautery or laser since creams have very little chance of treating it. You can use keracnyl facewash for oiliness of your face.
