Enlarged Pores
Enlarged Pores
Skin Concerns
Pores are small openings on the skin that release oil and sweat. Factors like genetics, age, sun damage, and excessive oil production can cause them to enlarge, resulting in a rough, uneven skin texture. Enlarged pores are often more noticeable on the nose, cheeks, and forehead.
Causes of Enlarged Pores
Excessive Sebum Production: Overactive sebaceous glands can lead to oil buildup, stretching the pores.
Aging: Reduced skin elasticity and collagen production with age can make pores appear larger.
Sun Damage: UV radiation can damage collagen and elastin, causing the skin to sag and pores to enlarge.
Genetics: Some people are genetically predisposed to larger pores.
Clogged Pores: Dead skin cells, dirt, and debris can clog and stretch pores.
Impact of Enlarged Pores
Enlarged pores can result in:
Uneven Texture: Rough, bumpy skin.
Increased Oiliness: More oil production can lead to shininess and breakouts.
Visible Imperfections: More noticeable blackheads, whiteheads, and blemishes.
Reduced Confidence: Decreased self-esteem due to skin appearance.
Treatment Options for Enlarged Pores
Our clinic offers several treatments to improve skin texture and reduce pore size:
Laser Facials: Advanced laser technology targets and shrinks pores by stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin.
UltraClear: This cutting-edge laser treatment utilises a unique cold fibre technology to gently resurface the skin, stimulating collagen production and minimising the appearance of pores.
CO2 Laser Therapy: This treatment removes the outer damaged skin layer, stimulates collagen, and promotes skin regeneration.
Skin Peels: Chemical peels, such as retinoids acid, salicylic or glycolic acid peels, exfoliate dead skin cells, unclog pores, reduce oiliness, and minimise pore appearance.
