Restore clearer skin by addressing sebaceous hyperplasia: small, flesh-colored or yellowish bumps caused by enlarged oil glands. At DrSkin Plastic Surgery, Regenerative & Medical Spa, sebaceous hyperplasia treatment in Gilbert and Chandler is personalized to safely reduce visible bumps and improve overall skin texture and confidence.

Reduce Visible Bumps and Uneven Texture

Sebaceous hyperplasia is a benign skin condition caused by enlarged sebaceous (oil) glands becoming trapped beneath the skin’s surface. It often appears as small, soft, flesh-colored or yellowish bumps, most commonly on the forehead, cheeks, and nose. Hormonal changes, genetics, sun exposure, and aging all contribute to its development, which is why sebaceous hyperplasia is more common in adults and in individuals with naturally oily skin.

As sebum production slows with age, dead skin cells can build up around the glands, causing them to enlarge and become more visible rather than releasing oil normally. While harmless, these bumps can resemble other skin lesions and may be a cosmetic concern. At DrSkin, sebaceous hyperplasia treatment focuses on accurate diagnosis and personalized, medically guided solutions to safely improve skin clarity.

Sebaceous Hyperplasia Overview

Am I a Good Candidate for Sebaceous Hyperplasia Treatment?

You may be a good candidate for sebaceous hyperplasia treatment in Gilbert and Chandler if you have small, raised bumps on the face that are stable, painless, and primarily a cosmetic concern.

A medical evaluation is important to rule out other skin lesions before treatment. You may benefit from treatment if you notice any of the following:

Smooth, soft lesions that do not resolve on their own

Treatment Options for Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Sebaceous hyperplasia requires accurate diagnosis to ensure the bumps are benign and to determine the safest, most effective treatment. At DrSkin, your provider begins with a detailed skin evaluation, reviewing your medical history, skin type, sebum production, and the size and location of the lesions. From there, a personalized treatment plan is created to address any existing bumps while supporting long-term skin health.

Custom Facials

Custom facials help manage sebaceous hyperplasia by deeply cleansing the skin, reducing surface oil, and gently exfoliating dead skin cells that can trap sebaceous glands. Medical-grade exfoliants and targeted extractions help clear clogged pores and improve skin turnover, allowing oil glands to function more normally. While facials may not eliminate larger lesions on their own, they play an important role in prevention and in supporting the results of in-office treatments.

Bovie 1250S Hyfrecator

The Bovie 1250S Hyfrecator uses precise electrosurgical energy to safely target sebaceous hyperplasia by delivering controlled current directly into the enlarged oil gland. This targeted approach breaks down excess glandular tissue, reduces the size of the bump, and allows it to gradually blend more naturally with the surrounding skin. Treatment is quick and effective with minimal downtime and a low risk of scarring when performed by an experienced provider.

FAQ Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Is sebaceous hyperplasia a medical concern or purely cosmetic?

Sebaceous hyperplasia is a benign condition, meaning it is not dangerous or harmful to your health. The bumps form when sebaceous glands enlarge and become trapped beneath the skin. Most patients seek sebaceous hyperplasia treatment in Gilbert and Chandler for cosmetic reasons, especially when the bumps become more noticeable or affect confidence.

Can sebaceous hyperplasia go away on its own?

In most cases, sebaceous hyperplasia does not resolve without treatment. Because the condition is related to gland enlargement and slowed skin cell turnover, the bumps often remain stable or increase over time. Professional treatment can safely reduce their appearance and improve skin texture, while proper skincare may help prevent new lesions from forming.

How do you confirm that bumps are sebaceous hyperplasia?

A medical evaluation is essential, as sebaceous hyperplasia can resemble other skin growths. Your provider carefully examines the size, color, texture, and pattern of the bumps and reviews your skin history. This ensures an accurate diagnosis before treatment and rules out conditions that may require a different medical approach.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments depends on the size, number, and depth of the lesions, as well as your skin type. Some patients see noticeable improvement after a single session, while others may benefit from staged treatments for optimal results. Your provider will outline a realistic plan during your consultation and discuss what you can expect.
