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!

Answer: TCA CROSS Can Work Well For Dilated Pores TCA CROSS, which employs concentrations of 90-100% TCA placed down the shaft of the dilated pores (to be distinguished from an ordinary TCA peel that employs concentrations of 1--25% TCA applied to the entire skin area, has been used with gratifying results for more than two decades to treat ice pick scars and dilated pores. Professionally performed manual microneedling (no need for the expensive addition and added risks of RF) has also been used successfully for this purpose. You would be wise to consult a board certified cosmetic dermatologist. Best of luck.

Answer: Treatment for large pores and greasy skin I would consider oral spironolactone, wenlevi or microtox treatments to help control oilyness. Then you could consider procedures to attempt to tighten in the skin such as microneeding and co2 laser, possibly more aggressive chemical peels.
