What Are Milia? They are tiny, firm bumps that sit just beneath the surface of the skin, usually white or pale yellow, and typically no bigger than 1- 2 mm. Unlike a spot, blackhead, or whitehead, milia have no natural opening. That’s the key difference, and it’s exactly what trips most people up. Why Squeezing Doesn’t Work A normal spot has a pore, a natural exit point that lets you (not recommended) squeeze
