What Causes Facial Bumps?

Facial bumps can be extremely frustrating, especially since they seem to appear without warning at the worst possible times. Milia typically occurs in response to skin irritation such as sunburns or blistering, but these are not the only type of facial bumps our team treats.

Facial bumps can take many forms and be caused by many things, including:

Cholesterol deposits – These are flat, yellowish bumps that occur on the surface of the skin. They are also called xanthomas.
Sebaceous cysts – This is a harmless bump that typically occurs on the face and neck. They are usually caused by damage to the sebaceous gland and can be uncomfortable.
Sebaceous hyperplasia – These bumps are often confused with acne, but they are different and trying to treat these the same way you would acne will prove ineffective. Hyperplasia is when the sebaceous gland grows beyond its normal size and becomes a bump on the skin. It is caused by an excess of testosterone that increases activity in the sebaceous gland.
Fibromas – These are small, benign tumors that can occur anywhere on the body, including the face. They may appear as small red bumps or a small lump.
Xanthelasma – This is yellowish plaque buildup that occurs around the eyelid. It is not harmful, but it could be a sign of heart disease. It is caused by high levels of cholesterol.

These are just some of the facial bumps our dermatologists can treat. There are many possible laser treatments for these conditions. Ablative treatments, for example, can remove the damaged skin so that healthier skin can grow in its place.
