What Is a Milium Cyst? A milium cyst is little, white bump that normally appears on the nose and cheeks. These cysts are typically discovered in groups, and in these cases are called milia. The cysts take place when keratin ends up being trapped beneath the surface of the skin. Keratin is a strong protein that is generally discovered in skin tissues, hair, and nail cells.
Milia are a type of non-inflamed acne blemish. Milia are hard closed comedones with very obvious white heads. Not to be confused with typical pimples (AKA pustules) milia are not red or inflamed. It's not a pimple, it's milia. That little white bump on your face is not a zit. It won't pop (you've tried). And, annoyingly enough, it won't go away.
