Steroid cream 4 milia?

[ikana82]

I've read all the threads about milia and i've gone out and bought ACV and i've been using that for a few days now. i have this one kinda big, pretty noticable milia on the lower lashes in the corner of my eye...and it bugs! the little tiny ones usually go away, but this one won't budge! Everything i've read about milia says that the goal is to tryto get the milia gunk to surface...I'm wayyyy too chicken to go get it poked with a needle at the derm's office, so ive been thinking....I have pretty bad eczema at times and my doc has prescribed me a steriod cream for it (approved to be used on the face) this isn't elidel or protopic...i think its called trimicoline or somethin like that! i cant remember how to spell it! it's in a small pink and white tube (i've got it in a blue and white tube too, but that one is a higher concentration) anyway, the doc tells me to not use too much of it on my skin and to not use it all the time b/c steroid creams thin the skin. You think it would work to thin the skin over my milia so i can get rid of it? What do you gals think? think it's safe?

I think it won't work.

Hi,

The skin around the eye area is thin. Best thing to do is speak with your doctor.

I'd definitely speak to your doctor/dermatologist before doing anything!

I have never heard of a steroidal cream helping...
