I am a 25 year old male and i am fair skinned. Teenage acne has left some mild scarring but oil production has been a significant issue leading to significant enlargement of the pores to my cheeks nose and forehead. What improvement would be realistically possible following such treatment?
Answer: Halo for reduction of pore size We have found the Halo Hybrid laser by Sciton to be remarkable in reducing pore size. In discussing this observation with my colleagues around the country, they say there isn't another laser on the market that is as effective as Halo in doing this. The treatment is performed under topical anesthesia only, takes about 30 minutes and there is less than 24 hours of redness and downtime.

Answer: Recommend doing LaseMD to help minimize 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: Minimize pores Some patients see improvement with laser resurfacing and some don't. Fraxel Restore has provided some improvement for my patients but I can't guarantee the results.

Answer: Sciton Halo Laser for Pores Until recently there has not been any really good solution for facial pores. Sciton developed a new laser called the Halo. Its a hybrid fractional laser which uses 2 lasers together to achieve results. In the studies (of which I was a part of) we found unexpected unbelievable results on pores (as well as expected improvement in texture, pigment etc). This laser is starting to be delivered to physicians in July 2014

Answer: Pore size reduction
Pore size may be reduced with numerous lasers that are available. Erbium lasers can sometimes do it by performing microlaser peels as well as Thermascan lasers which can also help acne scarring by remodeling collagen under the surface.
