About enlarged pores

Enlarged pores tend to be one of the first visible signs that the skin is losing firmness and elasticity — when the collagen around the pore weakens, it loses support and looks wider, especially in the T-zone of the face.

Frequently asked questions

Can enlarged pores be "closed" permanently?

It's not possible to change the pore's structural size, but peels and protocols that improve the firmness of the skin around it visibly reduce the appearance of enlargement.

Are enlarged pores a sign of dirty skin?

Not necessarily — they're more related to oiliness, genetics and loss of skin firmness than to hygiene.
