What Are Large Pores?

Pores are openings in your skin that allow sweat, oils, and other microscopic particles to pass through. They’re found all over your skin. Through pores, our skin releases sebum, the body’s natural oils. That’s why pores look bigger in oily areas of your face—and why it’s common to have large pores on the nose, for example.

What causes large pores? 

Pore size is mostly determined by genetics, but they tend to get larger and more noticeable with age. Over time, skin cell turnover slows and dead skin cells pile up on the skin’s surface. They can collect within pores, expanding them from the inside out.

Pores can also look larger due to other factors.

  • Acne, which is caused in part by clogged pores, can make pores both bigger and more noticeable.
  • Excess sebum production can get trapped within the pore and harden into a sebum plug, potentially turning into acne.
  • Sun damage weakens the skin’s collagen, which serves as its scaffolding. When collagen is damaged or degraded, the walls of your pores can sag, making them look larger.
  • Comedogenic makeup can clog pores, stretching them out and making them appear larger even after you exfoliate and clear them out.

What are the most effective treatments for large pores?

Minimize large pore appearance by combining topical and laser treatments. Zeiva Professional Center offers the latest laser treatments including the highly publicized Lutromic Spectra

Lutromic Spectra

Often referred to as the official Hollywood Laser Peel® or the Black Diamond Laser Treatment the Lutromic Spectra system offers a host of client benefits such as:

  • Improves skin tone for a cleaner complexion
  • Removes fine lines and wrinkles
  • Exfoliates and refreshes skin
  • Reduces active acne
  • Stimulates collagen growth
  • Reduces large pores and blackheads
  • Improves melasma and pigmentation
  • Diminishes surface imperfections
  • Brightens dull and tired-looking skin
  • No pain, no downtime

After laser treatment, maintain your skin with the #1 best selling dermatologist prescribed skincare line. We have two to choose from.

Regular exfoliation removes the dead skin cells and sebum that could otherwise clog pores and stretch them out, making them look bigger. The simplest thing would be to start with a great skin-care regimen. There are several Obagi products that provide light exfoliation to help remove debris and unclog pores. We carry both ZO® Skin Health and Nu-Derm lines.

Consider washing skin daily with a chemical exfoliant, such as salicylic or glycolic acid cleanser, to keep pores clear and minimize clogging.
