What Are Enlarged Pores?

Pores are small openings on the skin that release oil and sweat, a natural and essential part of healthy skin. But when they become clogged with excess oil, dead skin, or dirt, they can appear larger and more noticeable. Genetics, sun damage, and ageing (when skin loses elasticity) can also make pores look stretched over time.

While you can’t remove pores completely, you can refine their appearance. Treatments that clear congestion, stimulate new collagen, and support the skin’s barrier help pores look smaller and skin appear smoother.

What Causes Enlarged Pores

Genetics

Your genes are the primary factor determining your natural pore size and skin type.

Ageing

Natural loss of skin elasticity over time causes pores to look wider and less refined.

Sun Damage

UV rays break down collagen and elastin, which normally keep pores tight and supported.

Clogged Skin

Dead skin cells, makeup, and dirt can block pores, making them look more visible.

Excess Oil

Overproduction stretches pores and makes them more visible.

Hormonal Changes

Hormone shifts increase oil, making pores more noticeable.

FAQ's

What causes enlarged pores?

Pores are natural openings in the skin, but genetics, excess oil, sun damage, and ageing can make them look larger. Hormonal changes can also increase oil production, which stretches pores over time.

Can pores actually shrink?

No, pores are part of your skin’s structure and can’t be removed or permanently closed. However, professional treatments and skincare can make them appear smaller by clearing blockages, improving skin texture, and boosting collagen.

What treatments help reduce pores at Caci?

We offer treatments such as Hydradermabrasion, peels, and Fractional laser. These help clear congestion, resurface skin, and support collagen renewal, all of which minimise the appearance of pores.

How soon will I see results?

Many customers notice smoother texture and a refined look after just a few treatments, with best results achieved through a consistent treatment and skincare plan.

Do oily skin and enlarged pores go hand in hand?

Often, yes. Excess oil stretches pores and makes them look more visible. Treatments that balance oil production and strengthen skin help manage both issues together.

Can skincare help with enlarged pores?

Yes. Using non-comedogenic products, exfoliating gently, and protecting your skin with SPF all help keep pores clear and less visible. At your consult, our skin experts can recommend products suited to your skin type.
