What can I do about my large pores?

large pores treatment edmonton

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.

How do you treat acne breakouts after a menstrual cycle?

breaking out during period

Q: Dear Dérmica,
I find myself breaking out during my period without fail every month! Do you offer treatments to treat acne that I get from my period? Can I prevent acne breakouts during my my time of the month?
– Aunt Flow’s # 1 Enemy


A: Dear #1 Enemy,
Yes, Aunt Flow leaves behind some parting gifts…But you are not alone in breaking out during your period.

Can i prevent acne breakouts during my period?

Body hormonal levels are different during the menstrual cycle, and hormones typically affect the skin, hair and nail growth.

Although you cannot prevent your body from producing hormonal acne, (especially during that time of the month) you can do things to minimize the effects that breaking out will have on your skin.

For example,

  • the scarring
  • how many blemishes will pop up
  • the length of time the blemishes will last

Minimize the effects by fighting back with the appropriate products. Anything that contains salicylic acid will help to reduce the inflammation that surrounds blemishes and will help to clear out those pores. In addition, avoid touching/picking at the area. During this time, avoid wearing high collars or anything that grazes the jawline.

It is normal for a couple of new blemishes to pop up in the lower region of the face around that time of the month. If you have excessive amounts it may be something that you want to take up with your physician. There could be a hormonal imbalance.

Do you offer treatments to treat acne that I get from my period?

Just when your face clears up again, here she comes to wreck the day! Luckily, we offer the Dérmica Pore Facial.

This facial was developed as a treatment for acneic, acne prone, and blemished skin.

Blackhead extractions can take 15-30 minutes depending on the skin condition. They can also leave the skin looking irritated for 1-2 hours. Once the pores are cleared, they can remain clear for up to 8 weeks.
