Oily Skin
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Oily skin is a skin type in which the sebaceous glands produce more oil than usual. It is not a disease in itself, but it can contribute to cosmetic concerns and other skin conditions.
Common features: shine, especially on the forehead, nose, and chin, visible pores, and a tendency to develop pimples or blackheads.
Contributing factors: hormonal changes, family predisposition, and environmental factors can accentuate it.
Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist is the one who guides the care of oily skin and distinguishes when it is associated with other skin conditions. If the excess oil bothers you or comes with frequent breakouts, having it evaluated by this professional helps define an appropriate routine.
