I'm a 29 year dental hygienist and old mother of 2 boys. I never had a problem with acne or any blemishes as a teenager or young adult. However, after I had my first child I began to get milia and it has only gotten worse. One aesthetician tried a chemical peel unsuccessfully and said there were too many to extract individually. I'm too young to have such a "rough" textured face and I'm so self conscious now. What can be done? Anything? Please please help!!!
