After completing her acting training, Millhagen appeared in two plays directed by Birgitta Englin  [ sv ] at the Uppsala City Theater, Ur funktion (1999) and Electra (2001). [14] [15] Also at Uppsala City Theater, she appeared in Phyllis Nagy's Las Vegas as Loretta.

Millhagen played Carola, a wheelchair user living in a run-down flat with her alcoholic mother, who meets and begins a relationship with a sheltered, upper-class minister. Millhagen's performance garnered critical praise. In Variety , Gunnar Rehlin wrote that she was the "real find" of the film, who "makes Carola one of the most charming and vigorous women seen in Swedish film for a long time." [18] She was also praised by Eva af Geijerstam  [ sv ] in Dagens Nyheter. Millhagen was nominated for a Guldbagge Award for Best Actress for her work in Miffo. [19]

[30] [31] Although the production itself received mixed reviews, Millhagen's performance was universally lauded by critics. Jenny Aschenbrenner  [ sv ] of Dagens Nyheter stated that it was Lydia's "accurately portrayed rebellion and vulnerability that cuts through the game and makes it serious." [32] In Expressen, Nils Schwartz  [ sv ] criticized the direction and Skarsgård's performance but wrote that Millhagen had delivered "an absolutely superb interpretation of the role." [33] She had a supporting role in Maria Blom's Fishy  [ sv ] (2008). [34]
