Large pores are caused by genetics, skin type and sun exposure. Visibly large pores can effect the complexion by creating an unwanted texture.
Large pores are usually genetic but they can also be caused by sun damage or increased by oily skin. Excess oil blocks the pores and traps dead skin cells and dirt within the pores, expanding them to appear larger. Ageing also contributes to the appearance of pore size as skin laxity increases.
Bodyvie offers treatments such as peels and lasers that can resurface the dead skin cells to reduce pore size.
Treatments for Pores
SYMPTOMS of Pores
- Oily skin
- Increased & visible blackheads
- An uneven facial texture
CAUSES of Pores
- Large & open pores can be caused by genetics
- Aging & oily skin. As skin loses elasticity from UV damage or aging
- Sun exposure
Prevention of Pores
By avoiding sun exposure because UV rays damage collagen and elastin in the skin, a daily application of sunscreen, we recommend an SPF50 will also help.
You can also manage your skin quality to reduce excess oil production to avoid increased pore size. A healthy diet and a collagen supplement can help to maintain skin quality and elastin to prevent increasing pore size.
