Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It is likely this bump is due to glandular tissue that can be treated with laser, but should only be done by someone very experienced as this type of treatment is aggress and requies a well trained physician.

Michael H. Gold, MD · Answer

Even with your
photos, seeing the bump is not that easy so I am sorry that I cannot give you a
100% answer here. What I can tell you is that you should make an appointment
with a board-certified dermatologist who are well skilled in determining what
these bumps are and the proper course of medicine or what minimally invasive
procedure would take care of the problem in the most simplest but safest
manner. If this is from acne, there are several medicines and injections that
can take care of this. If this is an oil gland, there are medicines that can
minimize this as well, as well as laser procedures that can be performed. So
find a derm and get the problem handled correctly.
