Enlarged Pores on face

What Are Open Pores?

Open pores, or enlarged pores, are visibly larger and more prominent pores on the skin's surface. These openings can trap excess oil, debris, and dead skin cells, leading to issues like black and whiteheads and a less-than-flawless complexion.

Common Causes for open pores

Aging

As you age, the skin's collagen and elastin production decreases, which can cause pores to lose their structural support, making them look larger.

Genetics

Pore size can be hereditary, and if your family members have open pores, you may be more prone to this concern.

Excess Sebum Production

Overactive sebaceous glands can accumulate oil in your pores, causing them to appear larger.

Sun Damage

Prolonged sun exposure can lead to a breakdown of collagen and elastin, contributing to the appearance of open pores.
