Large pores refer to the visible openings of hair follicles on the skin’s surface. Each hair follicle contains a sebaceous gland that produces oil (sebum) to lubricate and protect the skin. The size of your pores is primarily determined by genetics, but various factors can affect their appearance, making them appear larger or more prominent. Factors that can contribute to the appearance of large pores including; Genetics, Oily Skin, Aging, Sun Damage, Clogged Pores, Hormonal Changes.
The best treatment options
Laser and Light Therapies:
Procedures like fractional laser resurfacing and intense pulsed light can stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce pore size.
Morpheus 8:
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. It is designed to improve the appearance of various skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, uneven skin texture, and sagging skin. Morpheus8 is known for its ability to target deeper layers of the skin, providing more significant results compared to traditional microneedling or RF treatments alone.
Professional Facials:
Certain facials, such as those that involve extractions and exfoliation, can help clean out pores and temporarily improve their appearance.
Topical Retinoids:
Prescription or over-the-counter retinoids (such as retinol) can help regulate oil production, improve skin cell turnover, and promote collagen production, which can make pores appear smaller over time.
