Best Treatments for Enlarged Pores

Enlarged pores are often caused by excess oil production, aging, sun damage, or genetics and can make skin appear uneven or textured. At Skin Care Institute, we offer advanced treatments to refine pore size, smooth the skin’s surface, and restore a more flawless complexion.

Refine Your Skin Texture: How We Treat Enlarged Pores

We use a combination of treatments—such as chemical peels, microneedling, fractional laser resurfacing, and customized skincare—to deeply cleanse, stimulate collagen, and tighten the pore walls. Each plan is tailored to your skin type and severity to deliver long-term improvement with minimal downtime.

What to Expect from Your Enlarged Pore Treatments

Weeks 1–2

Initial treatments focus on deep exfoliation and oil control. Peels or facials help clear debris from the pores and begin stimulating the skin’s renewal process.

✓ Fresher, cleaner skin
✓ Reduced congestion in pores
✓ Initial pore tightening effect

Weeks 3–6

Collagen production is underway, especially with treatments like microneedling or laser. Skin begins to look more refined and even. Oil production becomes more balanced.

✓ Smaller-looking pores
✓ Improved skin tone and texture
✓ Better makeup application and skincare absorption

Weeks 7–12

Pore structure continues to tighten as collagen remodels the skin. Texture appears smoother, and pores remain clean and less visible.

✓ Long-lasting pore minimization
✓ Visibly smoother, more radiant skin
✓ Increased skin firmness and resilience

Month 4 and Beyond

Maintenance treatments and a consistent skincare regimen support continued refinement and help prevent pore enlargement due to aging or buildup.

✓ Prolonged results with proper care
✓ Controlled oil production
✓ Healthier, balanced skin barrier
