Anyone had success removing milia/blocked pores around the lips? Tried the OCM for a few days but it seemed to inflame my skin, gave up to soon? Use DR H CC but it just doesn't seem to get them out. Any advice, thanks. |

You have these too? I thought I was the only one. Haven't found a solution yet though. |

I occassionally get them around the eyes. I take a clean pair of small, VERY SHARP manicure scissors and scrape them off. Then I use polysporin on it for a day or two and it's gone. |

forgot to add, you can have a dermatologist laser them off if they're stubborn. |

If they indeed are millia then spot treating with a salicylic/glycolic acid for a few days reallyt helps soften them up - you can then just gently coax them out I'd spot treat *exactly* on the affected area, not around it as well, and do it for a few days. |
