Pore Face

[sixmiles]

Hi doc,

I find the pores on my face pretty big, how do i make them smaller? what's the cause of this?

You can try the Neutrogena Pore Refining System or L'oreal Pore Minimizer. :)

If your skin type is oily, large pores are part and parcel of the problem. Unfortunately, it's an inherited trait, and there's really not much you can do about it. Keep your face washed and clean at all times, because dirt and oil can make your pores look larger. A dermatologist friend of mine prescribes her patients the Neutrogena pore-refining line, she says it's really effective. You might want to try that.

you can also try nu skin cleanser, toner and moisturizer line. if your skin is adequately moisturized, your pores won't feel the need to expand (they grow bigger to try and get more moisture).

I tried L'oreal and Neutrogena, and I find Neutrogena better.

Nope :nope:

There are about 3,000,000 cells, 100 sweat pores , 30 sebaceous glands AND hair pores per square centimeter on the skin throughout the entire body. The sweat pores excrete sweat, water, waste, and salt through the sweat ducts, which also regulate body temperature.

These hair pores secrete sebaceous (oily) secretions through the gland ducts to lubricate hairs. At the same time they emulsify themselves with sweat water to form a protective barrier known as Sebum Film.

If the condition is not properly treated (i.e. daily cleansed w/ soap & water), the sebaceous ducts and hair follicles will become enlarged, and the skin becomes more coarse, with very visible open pores . This is an ongoing natural process on every person's skin and cannot be stopped .
