Welcome to this forum, Jennawjxx  I think her ways of sterilizing tools for extraction of milia is acceptable, in my opinion, if she soak them in a special hospital-grade solution to kill germs. When she say that she takes extra steps in sterilization at the end of the day, it means that she put the tools in boiling water... If you go to, say a doctor or a dentist, they do the same thing --- surgical tools are sterilized in boiling water. This step prevents germs from "spreading"....
I've done milia extraction on my mom's face many times at home.... Before I do anything on her skin, I prep the area by dabbing it with cotton ball that has been soaked with alcohol to clean it. Use of surgical disposable gloves is important... If the milia is hard to get and embedded into the skin, I prick it with a disposable sharp surgical needle. I use 2 types of extraction tools for this purpose to ensure I get "everything" embedded there... The needle is disposed of and not-re-use it again... The last step is to apply Betadyne to ensure healing.... I boiled the extraction tools in water and then stored by wrapping them in clean paper towel inside a flat tin container... |
