Undereye skin bumps

by Heather522, Sep 23, 2009 09:08AM
Hello. I have white bumps that really look like chicken skin on the inside corners, below my eyes, and just by my nose under each eye. They are in the sort of loose fleshy part. I use oil to remove my eye makeup and am wondering if this might be clogged pores like millia and how I might get rid of them because they are getting more and more with each year. Thank you.

Hello,
Without examination ,confirmation of a diagnosis is tough, but it sounds like milia. They are white pimples that occur mostly on the upper cheeks, nose and chin. The best way to prevent milia is to avoid treating the skin with excessively harsh chemicals and to limit sun exposure. Also use good quality cosmetics and exfoliate the skin regularly. If still the symptoms persist then chemical peeling or laser removal can be done.

Hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted if you have any additional queries. Kind regards.
