Large Pores & Oily Skin

Large pores and excess oiliness are primarily genetic but can be managed with the right professional skincare. Pore-refining treatments reduce the appearance of enlarged pores and control sebum production without over-drying the skin.

What Causes Large Pores?

Pore size is largely determined by genetics, but factors like excess sebum production, sun damage (which weakens pore walls), ageing (loss of collagen support), and congestion (trapped debris stretching pores) can make them more visible.

Professional Treatment Protocol

Combine niacinamide (reduces sebum and pore appearance), salicylic acid (clears congestion), and retinol (stimulates collagen around pores). Professional treatments include chemical peels and microneedling to stimulate collagen and tighten pore walls. Consistent use of pore-minimising products delivers visible results in 4-8 weeks.
