Milia removal or treatment

    Has anyone had any good experiences with milia removal from the face? I have two large milia bumps on my temple. Nothing I have tried works and they are there a couple of years now. I want to get them removed professionally. Is this something a proper dermatologist would do or would a good beauty clinic offering more advanced services be ok? Would I need a referral to a dermatologist? Has anyone had it done?

    My doctor thinks it's a trivial nothing and fobbed me off. I know it's trivial and purely cosmetic but I want it gone.

    Any advanced beautician should be able to remove milia

    In my experience GPs are clueless/ useless when it comes to skin concerns

    Ok thanks. If anyone has a recommendation in Dublin city I'd appreciate it. I'm not someone who attends a beautician even so I've no idea. I'm willing to pay a fair bit to get it done well.

    There is a fab place in stillorgan....slievemore clinic. There was a lady there Dr Lisa Fay but I think she has moved? If she has I am sure they still have a dermatologist.
    Fabulous set up there....everything under one roof.
