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.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sebaceous Hyperplasia Treatment in Albuquerque

Sebaceous hyperplasia causes small bumps that don’t go away on their own. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we treat these spots safely with Skin Classic to restore smoother skin. Here are answers to common questions about what causes sebaceous hyperplasia and how treatment works.

  • What is the root cause of sebaceous hyperplasia?

    Sebaceous hyperplasia happens when oil glands enlarge, often from aging, sun damage, or hormonal shifts. It’s most common in adults with long-term sun exposure. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we often treat sebaceous hyperplasia for clients wanting clearer, smoother skin.

  • Can I squeeze sebaceous hyperplasia?

    No, squeezing won’t make these bumps go away and can cause irritation or infection. Unlike pimples, sebaceous hyperplasia isn’t filled with pus. For safe results, professional treatment is best.

    At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we use Skin Classic to gently treat sebaceous hyperplasia. This non-invasive device dries out each bump with precision so it can flatten and fade, improving your skin without harsh procedures.

  • What not to do with sebaceous hyperplasia?

    Avoid picking, squeezing, or using harsh products on the bumps. These can irritate your skin or cause redness. For the best outcome, professional treatment like Skin Classic is recommended at our Albuquerque studio.

  • What triggers sebaceous hyperplasia?

    Triggers include aging, sun exposure, genetics, and sometimes oily skin. People with a history of acne may also be prone. At My Skin Esthetics in Albuquerque, we help clients manage sebaceous hyperplasia with targeted treatment for lasting results.
