hi,
It may be milia most probably.
Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.
The lesions may be removed by extracting the whitish material by puncturing with needle.
The other mode of treatment is electro cautery under local anaesthesia.
It is a benign condition. if it is not embarrassing,it may be kept untreated.
Hope this helps.
