    production of sebum by skin glands

    Sebaceous gland activity refers to the function of sebaceous glands in the skin, which produce and secrete an oily substance called sebum. Sebum helps to lubricate and protect the skin and hair, but excessive activity can lead to oily skin and conditions like acne, while insufficient activity can result in dry skin.
