I've had large pores for a long time. I've tried IPL, TCA peel, and a laser peel but nothing seems to help much. Is there a better treatment or topical? I also have greasy looking skin, although it tends to be quite dry. Thank you in advance for your advice!

Answer: Topical for large pores Hi there! Large pores can be tricky to fully correct, but usually using a prescription strength retinol or a salicylic acid serum can help improve the appearance of textured skin and large pores. Retinol loosens the bond between dead skin cells and it helps promote cell turnover. This will help with large pores, fine lines and texture. Retinol can make the skin more dry so you can add a hyaluronic acid serum to give the skin hydration without making it oily. Salicylic acid will also loosen the bond between dead skin cells and remove them an it will also help reduce sebum (oil) production. By doing so it can help improve the size of the pores and help with dryness. Hyaluronic acid can also be added with salicylic acid if the skin is still dry. We hope this helps!
