Hi! I noticed a white dot under my left eye and tried to pop it because I thought it was a pimple. It started turning red which I figured is blood so I just left it. After a while I noticed it started turning brown. After some research I think its Milia and because of the popping, I think it started scarring. Is there anything I can do? Will this disappear on its own or is it permanent? Thank you! *please see reference photo
