What Causes Oily Skin?
Sebaceous glands naturally produce sebum, an oily substance that helps protect the skin from external aggressors and prevents water loss. These glands are most active in the T-zone of the face — including the forehead, nose, and chin — which is why this area tends to appear shinier or more prone to breakouts.
Oily skin occurs when the sebaceous glands produce too much sebum. This excess oil gives the skin a greasy appearance, often accompanied by enlarged pores and a shiny texture. While oily skin tends to age more slowly than dry skin due to its natural lubrication, it is also more likely to experience issues such as acne, congestion, and blackheads.
Common signs of oily skin include persistent shine, especially by midday, visible pores, and frequent blemishes. The overproduction of sebum can also lead to uneven skin texture and a buildup of dead skin cells, which may clog pores and trigger inflammation.
Managing oily skin effectively involves understanding its underlying causes, which can include genetics, hormonal fluctuations, stress, humidity, and the use of unsuitable skincare products. With proper care and targeted treatments, it is possible to reduce shine, balance sebum production, and improve the skin’s overall clarity and texture.

Our Approach to Treating Oily Skin
Our 3D imaging system allows us to analyze the various layers of your skin in detail and assess the activity level of your sebaceous glands. This in-depth evaluation provides a clear picture of oil distribution, pore congestion, inflammation levels, and overall skin texture.
Based on this personalized assessment, we develop a treatment plan tailored to your skin’s specific needs, goals, and level of oil imbalance. The objective is to regulate sebum production, reduce pore visibility, and prevent common issues such as acne, shine, and uneven texture.
Several solutions may be proposed. These can be used on their own or combined for enhanced results. In many cases, we recommend an integrated approach that includes both at-home care and professional in-clinic treatments. This synergy allows us to target both the surface symptoms and the underlying causes of oily skin.
Our protocols are designed to help you achieve clearer, more balanced skin with a refined texture and long-lasting results—all while respecting your skin’s natural protective functions.
