Milia treatment

I have some Milia under my eye and now I am hating them. All that I found for treating it is visiting the dermatologist. I am a bit scared about these treatments. Is there anyone who had it treated? 

I just came across what is it so that I do not fear treating it? Here is what I found "Milia are these firm papules that are seen on the face usually around the eyes, but can occur on the cheeks and forehead or on any part of the body. So basically these are small keratin cyst. These cysts are either attached to the epidermis that is the upper layer of the skin or the sweat duct or the hair follicle or sebaceous duct. Hence, are just a dermal cyst filled with keratin."

Can anyone here tell me about any home remedy to treat it naturally?

    Exfoliating can help, but not around the eye area.   Some beauty salons will remove them with a very fine needle.

    I wouldn't trust anyone bar a dermatologist/ GPwSI in dermatology to go near them as scarring is a real possibility.

    OP - what is bothering you so much about these, is it the size, quantity, inability to disguise?
