Oilseed Removal

Soft laser removal for oilseeds, also called milia: the small white bumps that form when keratin is trapped under the skin, often around the eyes and cheeks. Priced per oilseed, by size. Available at our Petaling Jaya and Penang branches.

RM20 Small · per piece
RM50 Big · per piece

We count your oilseeds and confirm the size of each at the consultation, then quote the total before we start.

Oilseeds, also called milia seeds, are small, white, round bumps that form when keratin, a protein in the skin, becomes trapped under the surface. They are most common around the eyes and on the cheeks.

We remove them with a soft laser, a low-energy laser applied to each oilseed. Numbing cream goes on first and is left for 20 to 30 minutes before the laser starts.

The whole session takes 60 to 90 minutes, depending on how many oilseeds are removed. If you need another session, it is booked 1 month later.

Not sure whether what you have is an oilseed? Send us a close-up photo and we will tell you before you book.
