Milia Extraction in NYC
Milia are tiny white cysts that commonly develop on the face. They can be easily removed with a minor procedure that pops the cyst out of the skin. The procedure is typically painless and fast. Special efforts are made to minimize any potential scarring. Milia removal/extraction is considered cosmetic and is not a service covered by insurance.
