Enlarged Pores

Enlarged pores are a common skin concern characterized by visibly large openings on the surface of the skin, particularly on areas such as the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin. Pores are essential for releasing natural oils (sebum) and sweat, helping maintain skin health. However, when pores become enlarged, they can lead to an uneven skin texture and a less smooth appearance.

Causes of enlarged pores may include:

​

1. Excess Sebum Production​

Overactive oil glands can enlarge the pores as they produce more sebum, particularly in individuals with oily skin types.

2. Clogged Pores

Buildup of dead skin cells, oil, and debris can stretch the pores, making them appear larger.

​

3. Aging

With age, the skin loses collagen and elasticity, causing pores to sag and appear more prominent.

​

4. Sun Damage

Prolonged exposure to UV rays can thicken the skin and reduce collagen production, further enlarging pores.

​

5. Genetics

Genetic predisposition plays a role in pore size, with some individuals naturally having larger pores.

​

6. Inadequate Skin Care

Inadequate cleansing or the use of comedogenic products can contribute to pore blockages and enlargement.​​
