Find an esthetician with a skin classic machine that zaps them or a dermatologist can do the same thing but usually not covered by insurance so will probably be more expensive through a doctor. Google the skin classic and it will explain. Of coarse you could also invest in one of your own. It will be my second to next big purchase....when I have an extra 4500.00

Hi Margaret:  Sebaceous hyperplasia is where the oil gland is appearing at the surface of the skin.  It is my opinion and experience that you cannot exfoliate them away.  I always had them physically removed with a hyfrecater.  Anyone else?

That's correct....no manual exfoliation will work. I just went to a friends spa a month ago to get mine taken care of.

Would a deep medical chemical peel work for these? Or dermapen?

Thank you all for the replies.  I think you answered my question very thoroughly.

Thanks again!

I have a little secret on them as I have 2 on my own face...or did have them.

Apple Cider Vinegar......no lie.

I was amazed it worked, I did a morning and night daily application to the site and did not wash it off...  it dissolved them completely, they scabbed right over and poof...gone. I left one on as it has a freckle in it and looks like a "beauty mark" lol

My derm was going to remove them ( mine were not huge and no way I wanted to pay out of pocket for removal ) so one day I had a acne breakout on my chin, got annoyed with myself and just plopped the apple cider vinegar on my face and saw a change happen rather quickly.Maybe it was just my skin, but you never know..it could work for others.
