Dear Franky,
Agree with Fortman. These lumps are simply Fordyce spots, which are prominent sebaceous (grease) glands.
Well-written explanation of what they are here:
https://dermnetnz.org/topics/fordyce-spots/
...and although I agree with 99% of what's written I certainly wouldn't suggest getting them treated with laser, photodynamic therapy etc! Just leave them be.
Rgds,
Adhari
