Will a Facelift Tighten Pores?

A facelift will improve some of the "sagging" you describe, but pore size and acne scarring will generally not be substantially improved.

This has been a vexing problem for facial plastic surgeons, often addressed with fairly aggressive procedures like full face dermabrasion or those that don't seem to work at all light superficial laser resurfacing.

The best results with the least amount of down time and expense appear to be with deep fractionated laser treatments combined with selective excision or elevation of deeply pitted scars.  Depending on your individual skin type and other related health concerns, this approach can be tailored specifically to you.

No, a facelift will not help tighten pores.
Facelifts do not address textural issues on the surface of the skin; rather,
they help to tighten lax, sagging skin and create a better neck and jaw
contour. If you are concerned about surface issues such as pores or acne scars,
laser rejuvenation, chemical peels, or microneedling may be better for you. I
suggest visiting a board-certified facial plastic surgeon or dermatologist who
can assess your skin during an in-person consultation and come up with a custom
treatment plan to address your concerns.

Unfortunately, pore size won't be greatly improved with a facelift. It may reduce their appearance a bit, but probably not to the extend you'd like.

A facelift will not tighten large pores. However, it will tighten loose skin and many times patients with acne scarring obtain benefits as well.  Without photos, it is impossible to know what procedure you would benefit from.  You may need some form of resurfacing as well as a facelift performed.

NO, a facelift surgery will not tighten pores. Only a resurfacing procedure such as laser or chemical peels will do this. We personally prefer the Obagi Blue Peel due to its safety and quick recovery.

Hi Sebastiana. No, a facelift will not affect pore size. It may improve the overall appearance of your face and neck skin and skin texture, but pore size itself will not change. 

There is no anatomic explanation on how a facelift can reduce pore size. Pore size is one of the most difficult areas to treat.  I have found intradermal Botox to be a good treatment for some patients with enlarged pores.

Since you describe laxity that causes wrinkling along the large pores you might see some improvement in the appearance from a facelift because the laxity will be less. I notice in many patients the a facelift will "iron out" irregularities especially along the cheek skin.
I would strongly suggest adding fat grafting to your procedure as this will transfer stem cells which appear to rejuvenate the skin and reduce pore size.
In summary, you will almost certainly improve your appearance with a facelift, but add fat grafting to also help pore size. The importance of fat grafting to add back missing volume in the face and rejuvenate the skin can not be overstated. After 15 years of doing facelifts, I feel it truly raises the bar to a new level.

 Excess skin is improved with a facelift, but not pore size. Peels will improve the overall quality of the skin but not make pores smaller.

I advise my patients that Face Lift Surgery works well to rejuvenate the sagging neck, jowls and midfacial structures. Face Lifting is not meant to eliminate large pores, acne scarring or wrinkles. In my experience, wrinkled skin looks improved after face lift surgery only while the skin is swollen.
Just about all of my Face Lift patients will have their deep wrinkles and scars treated with Injectable Fillers before surgery. I am not aware of any good treatments for large pores.
I hope this helps, and best regards.
