The skin is the largest organ of the human body, so it is necessary to take proper care of it, especially if it has a tendency to produce excess sebum and develop skin imperfections. Oily and blemish-prone skin requires a special approach to maintain health and beauty.

Skin types (oily, dry, normal) are determined by genetic factors, hormonal changes, age, etc. and differ from each other in a greater or lesser degree of intensity of production of sebaceous gland secretion.

The problem of oily facial skin is primarily associated with the anatomical features of this area, since the largest number of sebaceous glands on the human body is located on the face (especially on the nose, forehead, chin), as well as on the scalp. In addition, a significant role is played by the activation of sebaceous gland secretion during puberty (physiological hyperandrogenism), which reaches a maximum by 18-20 years of age, and then gradually decreases.

A short-term increase in sebaceous gland activity can also be observed in women of perimenopausal age (45+). In certain situations, conditions that constitute not only an aesthetic but also a dermatological problem can develop against the background of oily skin: seborrhea and manifestations of deficiencies in both adolescents and adults.
