sebum

The plug consists of sebum, dead skin cells, hair fragments and, possibly, bacteria.

The fungus breaks down sebum and the irritating bi-products penetrate the top layer of the skin.

Yeast Complex B: Composition of organic yeast extract and natural identical thiamin (vitamin B1) and pyridoxine (vitamin B6) for application to skin and scalps with excessive secretion of sebum (greasy hair and dandruff).

However, if your body produces too much androgen, or if you're particularly sensitive to the effects of androgens, the sebaceous glands may over-produce sebum and then they get blocked.

The spots are trapped collections of sweat and sebum necessary to keep the foreskin well lubricated.

The drug, also known as Roaccutane, reduces the amount of sebum which is produced, which in turn helps to prevent follicles from becoming clogged and resulting in spots.

This device uses robust and precise air cooling, a creative pulsing strategy to enhance the differential sebum to water absorption, and active, real-time monitoring via thermal imaging.

They secrete sebum (composed of fat, cellular debris and keratin) to lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair.

Certain light, natural plant oils have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, mimicking the natural and positive effects of sebum. Oils such as hemp, jojoba and omega are great examples, and can help protect cell membranes and alleviate sensitivity.

The disease is characterized by overproduction of sebum due to high level of production of male hormone named as androgen during puberty.

Sebum, an oil that keeps the skin hydrated, can interrupt this process in some people.

In the future, topical agents that target sebum production could play a greater role in acne management.

The human skin produces a wax like substance called Sebum that helps protect & heal the skin from external toxins; it's the first defense barrier for the skin.

The heteropolymer breaks up sebum into individual droplets and entraps the individual droplets in a film.
