In most cases, the problem is solved by adopting a healthy diet, a thorough cleaning with specific products, and using natural sebum-balancing creams and lotions. However, remember that these disorders, more common among young and adults, can depend on hormonal imbalances. Therefore, medical advice can be fundamental to ascertain the real causes and adopt the most appropriate therapy to avoid complications and more serious pathologies.

What is oily skin

It appears thick when it has a shiny appearance; its structure is often irregular; here we are in the presence of an excess of sebum, fertile ground for blackheads, comedones, microcysts, pimples and acne.

That hateful ‘oily’ effect appears, which tends to make it shine, especially on the T -zone, nose, forehead, chin, but also on the cheeks. Unfortunately, it is often accompanied by other skin imperfections, such as localized redness, dull complexion and a general appearance that is not very ‘healthy’ and luminous.

Typical of youthful skin, it is particularly common among teenagers and young adults but can also occur in adults.

However, it has some advantages:

  • ages better; in fact, wrinkles appear later
  • It is less fragile than dry skin because the sebum participates in forming the hydrolipidic film, which protects the skin and prevents dehydration.

Oily skin: causes

Oily skin is generally caused by the sebaceous glands’ abnormal activity that produces a large amount of sebum.

The excess sebum that the skin cannot absorb tends to concentrate in the shallower layers of the skin.

The causes of this over-production of the sebaceous glands can be:

  • In particular, hormonal imbalance is an excess of male hormones androgens present in men and women.
  • excessive use of cosmetics
  • too aggressive skin cleansing
  • Hypersensitivity, probably genetic, of the sebaceous glands to androgens. The hormone level is normal, but the glands overreact by producing too much sebum.
  • consumption of hormones of pharmacological origin (estrogens, progestogens)
  • systemic diseases (including Parkinson’s disease)

In adolescence, increased hormone levels are associated with hypermenorrhea, which affects about 80% of young people. It may or may not be accompanied by acne.

Furthermore, the situation can also worsen and accentuate sebum secretion when the skin comes into contact with external aggressions, such as pollution, sun and wind and stressful situations. Result: the skin shines.
