Even if your pores are not large enough to be visible to the naked eye, they can be a problem. The main cause for concern with enlarged pores is how easy it is for them to become clogged with dirt, oil, skin debris, and bacteria. Exposure to these irritants can lead to intense acne flareups, and in some cases, lingering acne scars. If you struggle with large pores, oily skin, or other dermatological concerns, we’re here to help. At Behr Laser & Skin Care Center, we offer a range of treatment options to help you rejuvenate your appearance without downtime or complications.
REQUEST APPOINTMENTWhy Do I Have Enlarged Pores?
Our bodies are covered by tiny vellus hairs that are attached to sebaceous glands. These glands are responsible for producing natural oil to keep our skin hydrated and healthy. Ordinarily, pores retain their normal size despite this oil production, but certain factors can cause pores to become dilated. Decreased skin elasticity from aging and sun damage, increased hair follicle volume, and abnormally excessive sebum (oil) production can all lead to enlarged pores.
What Are the Signs?
You may have enlarged pores even if you can’t see them. Common signs of this issue include excessively oily skin and a lot of acne. As the amount of oil and debris increases, the appearance of acne, irritation, and redness become more commonplace. If these are concerns you notice on your complexion, our treatments may offer the ideal solution. Schedule your appointment at our Fresno, CA center to explore our full range of options.
