Can I eliminate Montgomery glands (pimples on nipples) with no scarring? (Photo)

mrcoll2
I have been trying to find a way to eliminate the Montgomery glands on my areolas. They look like zits and have been there for years. I have read about a procedure called sebaceous gland ablation which kills the gland with no scarring. It is a procedure that is similar to laser hair removal. I can only find information on it in the UK and Australia and they have been doing it since at least 2012. Does anyone do anything like that here in the US? Thank you!
