Oil seeds, commonly known as milia, are small white or yellowish bumps that form when keratin or oil becomes trapped beneath the skin. They often appear on the face, especially around the eyes, cheeks, and forehead. Although harmless, oil seeds can be persistent and difficult to remove with skincare products alone.
At Vivardi Clinics in Rawang, Selangor, oil seeds removal is performed using safe medical techniques to minimise discomfort, scarring, and downtime.
Multiple areas can be treated in a single session depending on severity.

Oil seeds are tiny cysts formed by trapped keratin beneath the skin surface. They are commonly seen in adults and can be associated with:
• Thick or heavy skincare products
• Sun damage
• Skin trauma
• Poor exfoliation
• Natural skin turnover changes
They are benign but often require professional removal.
Treatment duration usually ranges from 15 to 30 minutes.




While treated oil seeds are permanently removed, new ones may develop over time. Proper skincare and regular exfoliation can help reduce recurrence.

Results are immediate. Skin appears smoother once healing is complete, usually within a few days.

Discomfort is minimal. Topical numbing cream helps ensure a comfortable procedure.
Most oil seeds can be removed in a single session. Extensive cases may require additional sessions.
When performed correctly, the risk of scarring is very low.
