Hair Follicle
The sebaceous gland produces oily secretions that can block the follicle, resulting in a pimple.
This image shows the sebaceous gland, hair follicle, sebum, skin surface, and hair. The sebaceous gland is deep underneath the skin's surface, adjacent to the hair follicle. The sebum clogs the sebaceous gland and hair follicle, pushing up to the skin surface.
