Is Oily Skin the Source of Your Acne?

September 28th, 2018
By Dermatology Institute

Having oily skin can lead to a number of problems. Not only does oily skin look unattractive, it can also lead to frequent acne breakouts that can be difficult to manage.

Your face is covered in small holes called pores. In normal skin, the pores are open. If there is an abundance of oil on the skin, it can clog up the pores on your face. Once they are clogged, bacteria begin to grow in the pores, which can cause them to become infected and form into a pimple.

It can be hard to find the right treatment or product for addressing oily skin, but it is possible. At the Dermatology Institute for Skin Cancer and Cosmetic Surgery, we can provide you with the personalized skin-care solutions you need. Contact us today to schedule a consultation.
