What are enlarged pores?

Enlarged pores are depressions in the skin's surface that contain one or more openings to the ducts that carry sweat and oil from their respective glands, e.g. the sebaceous glands that keep the skin moisturized.

Contents

In this article you will find answers to

01

What are clogged pores?

Clogged pores are the same pores, but in this case they are clogged like a plug. When this sebum comes into contact with oxygen it will turn dark. That is why blackheads are often called blackheads.

02

Why are they most often on the nose?

The pores on the nose and around the nose are called nose pores. Nose pores are the openings to the hair follicles, just like on the rest of your skin, they are actually called follicles. Attached to these follicles are sebaceous glands. These glands produce a natural oil called sebum, which keeps your skin moisturized.

While pores are a necessity for your skin's health, they can come in different sizes. Nose pores are naturally larger than those located on other parts of your skin. This is because the sebaceous glands beneath them are also larger.

03

Why do you get enlarged pores?

Firstly, there is genetics. So if your parents have large pores on their noses, you may also have or get them. It is just like eye color and so on.

But there are also other causes:
Sunlight without applied SPF
Lack of exfoliation
Acne
Heat
Hormonal fluctuations
Stress
Poor skin habits
Oily skin
Dry skin

04

Are enlarged pores and blackheads the same?

Blackheads and enlarged pores do not necessarily go together and do not necessarily happen at the same time. You can easily have blackheads without having enlarged pores. So no, blackheads and enlarged pores are not the same, and sometimes they actually are the same. Because you can easily have an overproduction of sebum that causes both blackheads and enlarged pores. Confused, yes, I completely understand.

05

Are large pores and dry skin connected?

If you have dry skin, the skin can contract so that the pores become larger than they need to be. So the optimal would be skin that is simply in balance.

06

Are large pores and oily skin connected?

If you have oily skin, the pores can be pushed outward by the increased production of sebum. So the optimal would be skin that is simply in balance.

07

How do you reduce pores?

You cannot do anything about genetically enlarged pores, it is your genetic makeup that has determined it. Of course, we can try to turn back time to when they were not so large, then you should read my guide called anti-aging.

However, it also seems that B3 reduces pores for unknown reasons, we cannot yet explain why, but more studies lead us to believe it. You will find niacinamide (B3) in both my face creams and especially in my Mdh.

And finally remember that sunlight is one of the major causes of enlarged pores and not least signs of aging. 97% of Danes use no sun protection in their daily cream. Therefore, many Danes have enlarged pores and look older than they need to.

08

Can you use laser for enlarged pores?

Yes, you can easily use laser for your enlarged pores. The treatment is the same as for wrinkle reduction, as you try to return the skin to the time when you did not have enlarged pores. The clinics I know that perform the treatment most effectively and at the same time sensibly are unfortunately very expensive. And when it comes to laser clinics, you must be picky. Cheap is not always good.

09

Can I use foundation/makeup on large pores?

You may cover your enlarged pores, it is just important that you remember to cleanse the skin morning and evening, preferably with my Cleansing Mask, so we also get rid of excess sebum and not least get plenty of minerals. A good routine is very crucial.

10

I have visible pores on my legs – what do I do?

Enlarged pores on the legs can easily occur. However, it is quite often that they can be removed if you use a good body lotion every day and at least after every shower.

11

I have large pores on my cheeks – what do I do?

The pores on the nose can easily extend to the cheeks. The treatment is not much different from the nose.

12

Is there something I absolutely must not do if I have enlarged pores?

The worst thing you can do is leave it alone. If you want them gone, you might as well get started now, for it will not get easier over time. Day cream with SPF30 and remember to cleanse both morning and evening.

Raz Skincare Cp Chemical peel.

Dead skin cells contribute to drying out the skin and clogging pores, both contributing to enlarged pores. Peel the skin 1-3 times a week. Start gently with only once a week. Follow the instructions on the product.

Results

When do I see improvements in my enlarged pores?

We are all different and if your enlarged pores are due to your genes, then the process is very slow – we are talking many months. If they are due to dry skin you will often see improvements within a week. Oily skin pores are often also clogged so you should expect a couple of months.

Supplements

Supplements that can help with enlarged pores

There is no specific supplement that removes enlarged pores, but it shows again and again that a healthy diet with plenty of vegetables gives beautiful skin. It is always a good idea to take a regular multivitamin pill.

I have gathered the products you simply must have in a package, and given you a good price.
