Treatments to Decrease Pore Size
Everyone has noticed pores on their face. Pores are tiny openings on the surface of our skin that allow the release of sweat and the secretion of natural oils.

Pores play a crucial role in maintaining the health of our skin by regulating its hydration and temperature. However, their appearance and size can vary from person to person.
Why People Prefer Small Pores
People often prefer small pores due to cosmetic reasons and the desire for smooth, flawless-looking skin. Small pores give the skin a more even texture and make it appear smoother and more refined.
Small pores are less likely to become clogged with dirt, oil, and dead skin cells, which can lead to breakouts and other skin problems.
Ways to Decrease Pore Size
There are several ways to decrease pore size and achieve a more refined complexion.
Most dermatologists would recommend first looking at your skincare routine. Cleaning your face daily and exfoliating regularly helps to clear dead skin cells and unclog the pores.
Plenty of products are effective in clearing pores, with hundreds of home remedies available.
At Prime Youth Aesthetics, we offer two popular services to decrease your pore size: Chemical peels and microneedling.
Chemical peels are highly effective when the enlarged size is due to debris, and are a great way to refresh your skin.
We use SkinPen for our Microneedling service, which creates thousands of micro-channels on your skin to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process.

Causes of Enlarged Pores
There is no guaranteed way to prevent large pores, but knowing the causes of enlarged pores can reduce the risk of triggering or exacerbating the condition.
Dirt and debris
Debris such as makeup residue, dirt, and other pollutants accumulate on the skin’s surface. These can settle into the pores and stretch them out over time. Regularly cleansing your skin can help remove most dirt and debris.
Excessive sebum production
When your sebaceous glands produce an excess amount of sebum, it can mix with dead skin cells and other debris, leading to clogged pores. People with naturally oily skin or those prone to acne are more likely to experience enlarged pores.
Genetic factors
Genetics also play a role in determining pore size. Some individuals may inherit genes that predispose them to have larger pores.
Age and decreased elasticity
As we age, our skin gradually loses its elasticity and collagen, leading to a loss of firmness and support. This natural aging process can cause the skin around the pores to become less taut. Sun damage can also accelerate this process.
