What Are Milia on the Face and How Can Ayurveda Help in Treating Them? - #14969
I’ve recently noticed small, white bumps on my face, particularly around my eyes and cheeks, which my doctor confirmed are milia. I didn’t think much of them at first, but after doing some research, I learned that milia are tiny cysts that form when keratin gets trapped beneath the skin. These bumps are not painful, but they are quite noticeable, and I’ve tried different skin creams to treat them, but they don’t seem to help. I’m concerned about using too many over-the-counter products with chemicals and I’m looking for natural solutions. Can Ayurveda help with milia on the face? Are there any specific Ayurvedic herbs or oils that can clear up these cysts and promote healthy skin? I’ve heard that herbs like Turmeric and Aloe Vera are good for skin health—could they be effective in treating milia as well? I’m also curious about any Ayurvedic practices like face massages or detoxifying routines that can help clear up milia and improve skin texture. Should I change my diet to support my skin’s health during this process? Has anyone here dealt with milia and used Ayurvedic treatments to get rid of them? What natural remedies worked for you, and how long did it take to see results?
