Sebaceous Hyperplasia: The Importance of Treatment to Reduce Recurrence

Improving only the visible parts may lead to the possibility of recurrence.

Sebaceous hyperplasia is one of the skin lesions that appear when sebaceous glands in the dermal layer of the skin abnormally enlarge.

Some procedures often focus primarily on removing visible lesion areas with a laser.

While this approach may show temporary improvement,

the sebaceous gland itself, which is the root cause, may remain, leading to a possibility of recurrence.

We approach sebaceous hyperplasia from a different perspective.

By managing the underlying internal causes along with removing the surface of the lesion, we aim to help reduce the possibility of recurrence.

Beyond simply improving visible symptoms,

we pursue a treatment approach that simultaneously considers the underlying causes and accompanying symptoms.

To achieve this approach, we utilize two types of equipment together.

1. Secret, Elysion, Potenza Agnes RF (Insulated High-Frequency 1-Pin Needle)

By directly delivering high-frequency energy to the area with sebaceous glands,

selective coagulation of the sebaceous glands can be induced.

By using insulated microneedles, the burden on the epidermis or surrounding tissues is reduced,

and energy is precisely delivered to target the sebaceous glands.

This can be an important factor in the fundamental management of sebaceous hyperplasia.

2. Erbium YAG Laser (Er:YAG)

This allows for precise depth-controlled peeling procedures,

and can be used to meticulously refine raised lesion areas.

It can help reduce damage to surrounding tissues, thereby lowering the recovery burden and minimizing the possibility of scarring.

If necessary, a CO2 laser can be used in conjunction to manage even deeper lesion areas.

This may differ from general surface removal procedures.

Since CO2-only peeling primarily focuses on removing visible lesions, the sebaceous gland itself may remain, leading to a possibility of recurrence.

Our combined procedure aims to reduce the possibility of recurrence of sebaceous hyperplasia by regulating the sebaceous glands themselves and refining surface lesions.

General Characteristics of Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Sebaceous Hyperplasia

Simply removing only the visible parts may not be sufficient.

Managing both the visible symptoms and the internal causes simultaneously can help reduce recurrence.

Are you experiencing any of the following skin symptoms?

Small, round bumps found on the forehead, cheeks, and around the nose

A shape with a central indentation, appearing navel-like

Appears similar to a pimple but no discharge comes out when squeezed

Tendency to persist over time without disappearing, or gradually increase in number

These phenomena are not mere skin blemishes,

but may indicate *Sebaceous Hyperplasia*, caused by excessive proliferation of sebaceous glands.
