How to prevent them?

• Use products that reduce the thickness of the outer layers of our skin, so that the pores "breathe better", and do not occlude. For this, we need products that perform a superficial peeling of our skin. This can be achieved with a medical peeling in your doctor's office, but also and much more easily using a gel or cream that carries retinol, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, retinoic acid, gluconolactone, or any other substance capable of reducing the thickness Of the horny layer of the skin.
• Avoid using creams that leave our skin too oily because they clog the pore.
• Be cautious with the use of very dense makeup because as the creams will also cover the pore.
• Do not abuse the sun exposure. We all know that our skin defends from the sun with the tan, but what many do not know is that almost more important than the tan, is how it increases in thickness the superficial layers of the skin after sunbathing. This makes it difficult for the pore to breathe and facilitate the formation of millium cysts. Besides that thickening would also explain the regrowth that many patients with acne have during the summer, or especially just after.

How to remove them ?.

The last thing we should do is squeeze them. It is more likely that the skin around it is broken earlier, and that the cyst remains the same. This is because they are balls with a roof that must be broken before tightening. After breaking the roof of the cyst with a needle, or a lancet, then we will only need a slight lateral pressure so that it leaves without having to injure the adjacent skin.

The minimum wound that we will produce with the needle will heal in a few days without leaving a mark. Another way to eliminate millium cysts is by laser or electro-systolic, producing a small crust that will fall in a few days without leaving just a mark.
