Is it Possible to Shrink Large Pores?

So you have large pores on your face?  Are you also suffering from blackheads which tend to go hand in hand with enlarged pores?  If you are, here’s a bare face fact.

You might find comfort knowing that enlarged facial pores is one of the most common skin problems in Asian women.  In fact, you’re most likely to notice enlarged pores around your nose, because that area has more oil glands per square inch than any other part of your body. 

What IS the large pore?

Pore serves the skin by allowing sweat and sebum, a naturally produced oil, to exit the skin and carry away toxins and debris.  As we age, pore may enlarge as a result of excessive oil production or thinning skin. In moving toxins out of the body through the skin, the pore will take a hit and exhibit inflammation. The toxins we eliminate are not totally benign, and as they irritate and inflame the skin they may result in atrophy immediately around the pore.

Over time, the atrophy surrounding the pore becomes even more pronounced because we lose our collagen infrastructure in the dermis. Imagine that the hair follicle is a tent pole and the skin a tent. Even though the extruding hair is soft, the follicle root is fairly rigid, enough so that it causes the skin to be held up slightly. Over time, sagging in the skin around the follicle will occur. Without the stability previously provide by the presence of robust collagen levels, the epidermis collapses beside the pore, enhancing the appearance of enlargement. This appearance can be further exacerbated by dirt that collects in pores from the surface or by overactive sebaceous glands.

Fortunately, enlarge pores can be treated by rebuilding the collagen and elastin matrix in the dermis. Through stimulating collagen and elastin and by decreasing sebum output, we can significantly reduce the appearance of enlarge pores by using Fancy Jasper from Beauty Journey.
