Underactive sebaceous glands can lead to conditions such as dry skin, dermatitis, and eczema, as the lack of sebum production results in reduced moisture and protection for the skin. Additionally, conditions like ichthyosis, characterized by dry, scaly skin, can also arise from insufficient oil production. Other potential issues include increased susceptibility to skin irritation and infections due to the compromised skin barrier.
