Strange pores

by Frogger1963, Dec 30, 2008 05:15PM
Hi

I have numerous pores on my face that have - well the only way I can describe them, as they have gone inside-out.  Over night I can have a pore grow what seems extra skin around them and then they go into large crators that now matter how many times I have a facial, chemical peels or treatment they get bigger and bigger.

What are they, and what can I do

Hello,

The problem of enlarged pores on face or facial pores is commonly associated with excessive oiliness and acne. The excessive oiliness of the skin is in turn triggered by the hormonal changes in the body.

Large pores can be easily dealt with proper cleansing and frequent toning and moisturizing of the skin. Other treatments to consider include microdermabrasion, skin resurfacing lasers and chemical skin peels.

In my opinion you should discuss these treatment options with a cosmetologist/dermatologist.

Hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.
