What can I do about my large pores?

We offer treatment for large pores in Edmonton, Alberta.

How do you get rid of large pores?

Well, there is cleaning your pores and then there is “shrinking” your pores. Most people are looking to clean their pores by emptying the contents within. You can see immediate results through pore extraction. We do this is all of our facials. However, if your skin is visibly congested and you’ve never had a facial, we recommend the PORE facial.

While other facials in our menu include other relaxing or beautifying delights, the PORE facial concentrates on pore extraction throughout the entire duration. While we must take time to prepare the skin for safe extractions, we extract as much as possible in the hour allotted. Sometimes a second facial is required when there is severe congestion in all areas of the face.

How long before I need another facial?

It’s important to understand that facials are simply “cleanups” and the skin is bound to become congested again. Therefore, we generally recommend clients come every 4-6 weeks for a facial. However, this timeframe between facials will vary depending on factors such as age, skin type, and environmental factors. Also, getting your skin under control with the right skincare routine and possibly changing some daily habits will space those facials even further.

Can you actually reduce pore size?

Small pores indicate good skin health and present a youthful appearance. If you did not win the “skin lottery” genetically, there is not much we can do to reduce the natural size of your pores. On the other hand if your pores have become enlarged over time, there are advanced skin treatments to help you “shrink” your pores back to a normal size.

Photofacials are effective at reducing pore size, in particular, the ALISA treatment. However, anti aging is a constant battle. We must consider daily external factors that are out of our control, such as winter temperatures, when setting our expectations.

In other words, advanced skin treatments and professional skincare products are great tools to have at our disposal. But we are always fighting against time. That is why the results of any treatment cannot last forever. If you choose to treat large pores with phototherapy, you may require multiple treatments to address your concern.

In conclusion, we all show our age in certain ways. If large pores is a concern for you now and they are left unattended, the matter will only get worse in a short five years. A good skincare routine will at the least slow down the damage. Treatments have the capacity to repair.
