Appearance of oily skin can be caused by hormonal changes,stress, dietary factors(too many sweets),age,environmental & genetic factors. Avoid overwashing and scrubbing which make skin glands react by overproduction of oils. Use skin cleansers that don't contain oils.

Please see your Dermatologist for a thorough examination and recommendations for treatment. If you don't have confidence in your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
