Condition Overview

Sebaceous hyperplasia occurs when sebaceous (oil) glands become enlarged, forming small, soft bumps on the skin. Typically seen on the face, these lesions are benign but can affect overall skin texture and appearance.

Signs & Symptoms

  • Small flesh-toned or yellow bumps

  • Central indentation

  • Smooth, soft texture

  • Common on forehead and cheeks

Why It Happens

  • Enlarged oil glands

  • Aging

  • Genetics

  • Oily skin

  • Hormonal influence

When to Take the Next Step

Sebaceous hyperplasia is benign, but persistent or visible bumps can affect overall skin texture and appearance. Professional treatment helps refine the skin and ensure an accurate diagnosis.
