Sebaceous Hyperplasia Treatment Information

Sebaceous hyperplasia commonly appear with age and can affect both men and women. The condition is actually caused by overactive sweat glands which cause yellow sebum (grease) to become trapped in the skin’s upper layers.

The most commonplace for sebaceous hyperplasia to appear is on the forehead or cheeks due to the prevalence of sweat glands in these areas.

They are commonly seen on patients from middle age onwards and tend to appear on the forehead, where the sebaceous glands are more active.

In addition to the development of yellowish cysts, sebaceous hyperplasia might also cause the blood vessels in the area to become more prominent, exaggerating the appearance of the sebaceous hyperplasia themselves.
