Hi there! Thanks for your comment. I believe there are things you can do to minimize the chance of milia forming, mainly keeping up with a good chemical exfoliation regimen daily. Do you currently use any chemical exfoliants? Like, glycolic or lactic acids? salicylic acid is specifically to clear out pores, but that is usually best for open comedones, like blackheads. Milia have a layer of keratinized tissue closing the pore that needs to be broken through. Aside from lancing this tissue to squeeze the contents out (which I don’t really recommend unless an esthetician or dermatologist does this for you), chemical exfoliants can help slough off the top layers enough to possible extract them on your own at some point.
But, I think keeping up with chemical exfoliants that are meant for your skin type is the best bet to keep them from forming in the first place. I have a skin questionnaire, if you’d be interested in filling it out. I’ll be able to curate a skincare regimen for you based on your answers and skin type: form.jotform.com/241148356314049 Then we can chat about your skin concerns and what you would like to improve.

I don't see any difference
Would be nice if you could talk a little slower….
