Sebaceous ectasia usually does not require treatment, and can be treated with physical or surgical methods according to the patient’s individual needs. Topical ointments are generally ineffective and are not usually used to treat the condition. Sebaceous ectasia is a disease caused by the mutation and hyperplasia of sebaceous glands, which occurs in the lips and oral mucosa, and also involves the glans, labia and other parts of the body, and manifests itself as pinhead-sized, isolated yellowish-white papules, which are benign hyperplasia, and usually do not affect human health, and do not need to be treated. Patients can also be treated according to their own needs, and can take electrocoagulation, liquid nitrogen freezing, laser or surgical methods of treatment. However, they should be used under the guidance of a medical professional. Topical ointments are not usually used to treat this condition due to the ineffectiveness of ointment application. Patients with sebaceous ectasia are advised to visit a hospital and follow the doctor’s instructions for standardized treatment.
