Is there a high recurrence rate of sebaceous nevi?

The recurrence rate of sebaceous nevus is related to the time of treatment, the size of the lesion, and the treatment method, and should be analyzed with specific questions and cannot be generalized. Sebaceous nevus is a disease characterized by sebaceous gland hyperplasia, which often occurs around the time of birth and progresses more rapidly from puberty. Commonly used treatments include laser therapy, electrocautery, and surgical excision. The recurrence rate is lower with pre-pubertal treatment and higher with post-pubertal treatment. The recurrence rate is higher for large lesions, lower for small lesions, higher for laser and electrocautery, and lower for surgical treatment. To prevent recurrence, surgical excision should be chosen before puberty, but surgical scarring may remain. If you suffer from sebaceous nevus, please go to the hospital in time to choose the appropriate way for early treatment to reduce the recurrence rate.
