Sebaceous Disorders

Sebaceous disorders encompass a range of conditions affecting the sebaceous glands, which are responsible for producing sebum, an oily substance that lubricates the skin and hair. Common disorders include acne, seborrheic dermatitis, and sebaceous cysts. Acne arises when hair follicles become clogged with excess sebum and dead skin cells, often leading to inflammation and the formation of pimples. Seborrheic dermatitis is characterized by red, scaly patches and can affect areas rich in sebaceous glands, such as the scalp and face. Sebaceous cysts, though generally benign, can form when sebaceous glands become blocked, leading to localized swelling. Effective management often involves topical or systemic treatments, including retinoids, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory medications, alongside proper skincare routines to maintain skin health and balance sebum production. Understanding these disorders is crucial for both dermatologists and cosmetologists in addressing patients' skin concerns effectively.
