Milia

Milia may be found anywhere on the face (such as the cheeks, eyelids, jaw, neck and forehead). They are the primary lesions of acne. The cells tend to clump up or stick together making the process of follicular secretions even more difficult and this mass or impaction is known as a micro-comedone.

In the beginning stages, the impaction is invisible because it is deep down in the follicle. As the impaction grows it becomes visible and looks like a small white seed just under the skin, at this point it is called a Milia.

Skin Tag Removal

Skin tags, also known as acrochordons, are small, soft, benign growths that often appear on the skin's surface. They are typically flesh-colored or slightly darker and are attached to the skin by a small stalk, called a peduncle. Skin tags are common and usually harmless, but they can be annoying or cosmetically undesirable for some people.

Common Characteristics

Size: They can range from a few millimeters to about the size of a pencil eraser.
Location: Commonly found in areas where skin rubs against skin or clothing, such as the neck, armpits, groin, under the breasts, or on eyelids.
Cause: Often associated with friction, genetics, hormonal changes (e.g., during pregnancy), or conditions like obesity and diabetes.

Can Skin Tags Be Treated?
Yes, skin tags can be treated, especially if they cause discomfort or are bothersome. Here are the common methods:

Medical Treatments

Cryotherapy: Freezing the skin tag with liquid nitrogen.
Cauterization: Burning off the skin tag using electrical energy.
Excision: Cutting off the skin tag using sterile scissors or a scalpel.
Ligation: Tying off the base of the skin tag to cut off its blood supply.

When to See a Doctor

If a skin tag changes in appearance, color, or size.
If it causes pain, bleeds, or shows signs of infection.
If you're unsure whether the growth is a skin tag or something more serious.

Always consult a healthcare provider before attempting to remove skin tags at home, especially for tags in sensitive areas like the eyelids.

Blood Spots (Campbell De Morgans)

Also known as a cherry angioma (plural angiomata) it is a vascular blemish where it is not possible to distinguish the individual capillaries. They are most common on the trunk or torso, particularly in the middle-aged and elderly. (Most people over 30 have at least one, with it being even more common in men than women.)

Blood spots are usually simply a spider nevus often found under the eye or on the cheeks. Our skilled highly qualified therapist will be able to remove them. A Fine Needle is placed just under the skin and a small amount of electric current cauterise the dilated capillary. This results in the capillary drying up and eventually disappearing.

Sebaceous Cyst (Steatoma)

A small retention of sebum under the skin that is usually blocked by an overgrowth of surface skin is called a sebaceous cyst. The size of the cyst can vary from a pea to an egg, and the areas most affected are those where there are more sebaceous glands, i.e. face, chest, scalp and back, although sometimes also appearing on the underarm. Cysts may have an open or a closed top and may need medical removal.

They can be excised which is a fairly simple procedure or treated successfully with electrolysis.

Keratosis Pilaris

Keratosis Pilaris is a common harmless skin condition. It causes small hard bumps that may make your skin feel like sandpaper. The bumps are often light-coloured. They usually appear on your upper arms, thighs and buttocks, sometimes with redness or swelling. They can also show up on your face, but that's less common. Many children and teens get it and it usually disappears as they get older.

Cause - Keratosis Pilaris is caused by a buildup of keratin, the protein that protects skin from infections and other harmful things. The buildup forms a plug that blocks the opening of a hair follicle. If you have dry skin you're more likely to have keratosis pilaris. It often affects people with certain skin conditions including eczema (also called atopic dermatitis).

Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Sebaceous Hyperplasia is a common, benign condition of sebaceous glands in adults of middle age or older. They typically appear skin-coloured or yellowish and have a central "pore" or follicular opening. Lesions can be single or multiple. Sabaceous Hyperplasia can be effectively treated with fine-needle electrocautery - a painless procedure.
