A: Dear Customer, Thank you for your question. This essence isn't designed to treat milia—those small keratin cysts usually need professional extraction by a dermatologist or esthetician rather than a topical product. That said, it's a non-comedogenic certified product with gentle, barrier-strengthening ingredients, so it's a lightweight option that won't clog pores or add congestion around the under-eye area. For the milia itself, we'd recommend seeing a skincare professional for safe removal. haruharu wonder Thank you for your interest in our brand.
