Seborrhea oleosa

Seborrhea oleosa refers to increased sebum production of the skin, i.e. an oily skin condition. It usually occurs with a cornification disorder in the area of the sebaceous gland follicles and thus leads to acne.

Seborrhea sicca

Features

Seborrhoea sicca is characterized by a dry skin condition. Skin cells dry out prematurely, resulting in forced keratinization (scaling). The skin is drier than usual.

The development of seborrhea sicca can be caused by a dry environment, which causes the water content of the skin to evaporate prematurely, or the excessive production of the skin's own hydrolipid film.
