Took me a full month to figure out a stubborn milia extraction on a regular client
Had this client with a single, deep milia spot right by her eye. She's been coming to me for two years. Every facial, I'd try to get it. Used my lancet, my extractor, even tried softening it with steam for longer. Nothing worked, it was like a tiny pearl glued in there. I was ready to tell her to see a derm. Last week, I changed my whole approach. Did a much longer enzyme mask, like 20 minutes, and used a different angle with the extractor, almost flat against the skin. It finally popped out on the first try. Felt like a huge win after all that time. Has anyone else had a spot that just would not budge for ages? What finally worked for you?

Oh man, the stubborn ones are the worst. That feeling when it finally gives up is the best, though. It's crazy how just a tiny change in your method, like the angle or more time on the prep, can make all the difference. Good on you for not giving up and figuring it out.
