It is due to an overproduction of sebum, the natural oil the skin produces — often in the T-zone, resulting in a shiny skin surface. Oily skin can lead to clogged pores, blackheads, acne, inflammation and other skin issues. Insufficient sebum can lead to dull, dry and cracked skin.
The causes of oily skin include genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. While you cannot necessarily change your skin type, you can take steps to reduce the excess oil production.
Despite so many high-street skincare products promising to help reduce the appearance of oily skin, sometimes more advanced treatment is required. Oatlands Aesthetics is proud to offer multiple treatment options for oily skin to suit your individual needs and budget.
Our skin needs oil (also known as sebum) to protect and hydrate itself. Sometimes, however, genetics, hormones, medication, diet and lifestyle can cause increased sebum production, which leads to oily skin.
When possible, addressing these factors prior to treatment can reduce the risk of acne breakouts, pigmentation, enlarged pores and congestion, therefore improving your skin health.
