What causes milia post-bleph and how can I treat them?

July 8, 2013
Asked By:3dogmom in Azalea, OR

What causes milia post-bleph and is there anything you can do to discourage them? Would some kind of exfoliation or massaging help keep more from forming? I'm very frustrated as they are unsightly and look like little pimples and draw attention right to my lids & scars. I'm 2 months post upper bleph & lower/upper laser CO2. Thank you for your responses.
