Retinoids and in-office peels not effective for my pores? (Photos)

June 13, 2016
Asked By:secretagent007 in Chicago, IL

See pics attached. I have been using retinoids and getting regular in-office chemical peels and microdermabrasion but my pores are still huge. I tried Clear + Brilliant laser last month and going in for another treatment soon. What else can I do for my large pores? I am 30 with olive skin. Combination skin type (sometimes sensitive if I overdo the retinoids)
