sebaceous gland
A gland of the skin which secretes an oily substance, sebum, usually into a hair follicle near the surface of the skin
Any of various glands in the dermis of the skin that open into a hair follicle and produce and secrete sebum. Small oil-producing gland in the skin, usually connected to a hair follicle by a duct into which it releases sebum, a component of the slightly greasy film on the skin that helps keep it flexible and prevents too much water loss or absorption. The glands are distributed over the entire body except the palms and soles, most abundantly on the scalp and face. Large and well developed at birth, they shrink during childhood but enlarge again and increase their sebum output at puberty (apparently in response to male hormones), often leading to acne
a cutaneous gland that secretes sebum (usually into a hair follicle) for lubricating hair and skin
