Excess oil

Excess oil production can happen when there is over-functioning of sebaceous glands producing sebum in excess. Sebum is a waxy, oily substance that in moderation is vital to a healthy skin but too much can lead to clogged enlarged pores, and development of conditions such as acne and uneven skin texture, and more.

In order to achieve optimal results, combination therapy of treatments such as the Morpheus 8 Radiofrequency Microneedling, and skincare products, such as ZO Skin Health and SkinBetter Science are recommended.

Treatment Times

LENGTH Every patient's needs are different, therefore our focus is providing protocols for therapeutic and daily skincare regimes specific to each individual. Once a skincare regime has been prescribed, recommendations to continue to have improved skincare health will be implemented.
EXPECT RESULTS Results vary from patient to patient based on their skincare needs. We have seen improved skin health in as short as 2-6 weeks, however, it is recommended to adhere to your regime for a minimum of 12 weeks.
RESULTS LAST Continued use of skincare protocols, combined with alternative therapies will facilitate ongoing improvements and results. Typically, 5-6 months of continuous skincare use is recommended for optimal results.

Treating This Condition

Conditions and concerns vary from patient to patient. Generally, the goal is to address sebum-induced inflammatory diseases, such as acne, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, among some. Excess sebum generally prevents even penetration of topical agents and reduces the efficacy of topical agents and may lead to treatment failure. Sebum control is essential to restore skin health.
