Does anyone know what is the best treatment for large pores? I use Retin-A Micro at night, but even if it cleans the pores, they are still so big. Can anyone recommend a different product or a laser treatment they've done that would work to shrink the pores?
Answer: Large Pores Treatment -- Combination Approach w/ Lasers, Microneedling/PRP, Cosmelan, Peels, Skin Care A combination approach will give the most improvement. I recommend lasers, microneedling/PRP, Cosmelan, peels and skin care. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: LaseMD facial treatments to reduce appearance of large pores Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Halo Shrinks Pore Size The Halo laser works great for wrinkles, texture, pores and pigment. It is one of our most popular laser treatments for resurfacing the skin. It has two wavelengths, ablative and non ablative, to treat the surface level of the skin as well as stimulate collagen deeper in the dermis with a quick recovery time .Depending on the patients skin condition 1-2 treatments maybe recommended and the patient will have some redness and sunburn swelling for 2-5 days after. More aggressive treatment may take 5-7 days to heal. Erbium lasers do not see color so are safe to treat all skin types with , however, very dark skin types should be treated only by a skilled laser practitioner. Hope you find this answer helpful.

Answer: Shrink pores with Fraxel Dual, Fraxel CO2, PicoSure Focus, Infini Microneedling in my NYC practice Most importantly everyone should know that pore shrinkage can be a result of lasers and other energy devices but pores don't go away, and the results can vary from patient to patient. There is not one device that consistently produces the same good results. These are a few of the lasers and devices I use on my patients to reduce the pore size:1. Fraxel Dual 1927nm. Thulium wavelength non ablative2. Fraxel REpair Carbon Dioxide ablative3. PicoSure Focus Lens Array4. Infini Microneedling with Radiofrequency and gold tip insulated needlesThe information provided in Dr. Shelton's answer is for educational purposes only and is not intended to constitute medical advice.

Answer: Shrinking pores with RF I love radiofrequency face treatment to shrink pores and decrease blackheads. Even just one treatment results in improvement. I use the EMatrix RF device for this treatment. It also helps fine lines, mild scars, and lightens some brown spots.
