Sebaceous Hyperplasia Treatment in Albuquerque, NM
Sebaceous hyperplasia causes small, yellowish bumps that don’t go away on their own. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we treat these spots safely and precisely using the Skin Classic device. This non-invasive method targets the enlarged oil glands and helps smooth the skin with little to no downtime.
Understanding Sebaceous Hyperplasia and How It’s Treated
Sebaceous hyperplasia shows up as small, yellow or flesh-colored bumps, most often on the forehead, cheeks, or nose. These spots are enlarged oil glands that don’t respond to typical skincare. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we treat them using Skin Classic to flatten the bumps safely and with minimal discomfort.
Where Sebaceous Hyperplasia Appears and Who It Affects
Sebaceous hyperplasia often forms on areas with more active oil glands, like the forehead, nose, and cheeks. These bumps tend to show up in middle age or later and are more common in people with sun-damaged or naturally oily skin. Though harmless, they can become more noticeable over time and are a frequent concern for clients seeking smoother-looking skin.
What to Expect During Sebaceous Hyperplasia Treatment
At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we treat sebaceous hyperplasia using the Skin Classic device. During your visit, each bump is lightly tapped with a fine-tipped probe that delivers a quick pulse of high-frequency energy. The spot may darken slightly before flaking off within a few days. Most clients find the treatment quick and easy, with little to no recovery time needed.
Why Skin Classic Is Ideal for Sebaceous Hyperplasia Removal

Frequently Asked Questions About Sebaceous Hyperplasia
Wondering what causes these bumps or how treatment works? Here are common questions about sebaceous hyperplasia and what to expect during removal.
What is the root cause of sebaceous hyperplasia?
Sebaceous hyperplasia happens when oil glands become enlarged, often due to age, sun damage, or hormonal changes. It’s more common in adults with long-term sun exposure. At My Skin Esthetics, we see it often in clients from Albuquerque looking for smooth, healthy skin.
Can I squeeze sebaceous hyperplasia?
No, these bumps won’t go away by squeezing and can become irritated or even infected if picked at. Unlike pimples, they’re not filled with pus. It's best to let a professional handle treatment safely.
How do I get rid of sebaceous hyperplasia?
At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we use Skin Classic to treat sebaceous hyperplasia. The device gently dries out each bump using high-frequency energy, allowing it to flatten and fade without harsh procedures.
What not to do with sebaceous hyperplasia?
Avoid picking, squeezing, or applying harsh products to the bumps. These actions can irritate your skin or cause redness. For best results, choose a gentle, targeted treatment like the one we offer with Skin Classic.

Common triggers include aging skin, chronic sun exposure, and sometimes genetics. People with oily skin or a history of acne may also be more prone. We often treat sebaceous hyperplasia in clients here in Albuquerque who want to improve skin texture without invasive methods.
