Summary

This study tests whether a cream called imiquimod can shrink sebaceous hyperplasia, which are harmless but unwanted bumps on the face. About 40 adults with bumps on both sides of their face will use the cream for 8 weeks. Researchers will check if the bumps get smaller or go away by week 16.
