Hi,

If your diagnosis is indeed sebaceous hyperplasia, then the medication prescribed may help you get better. However, the effect of the gel application on your cholesterol level may need more attention.

Your liver function tests appears fine.

If you may need more information on sebaceous hyperplasia ,you may find that at:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebaceous_hyperplasia

Let us know if this helped you or if you may need more information.

Best regards
