Pore reduction

Uneven, dull complexion due to enlarged pores

Pore size is largely determined by genetics but there are other factors that affect the appearance of your pores.

People who have naturally oily skin tend to have larger pores. This happens because when oil and dirt collect in your skin, your skin swells and your pores look larger than they normally would.

Age is another factor leading to large pores—especially if you’ve had a lot of sun exposure in the past.  As we age we start to lose the collagen and elastin that support the pores. They begin to stretch and sag around the edges, which can make them appear bigger.

Why consider pore-minimizing treatments?

Enlarged pores can be difficult to disguise with makeup and can make your clear skin look rough and imperfect.

Beauty is often associated with glowing skin.  When pores are tighter, light reflects better. You get an overall appearance of vitality, youthfulness, and health.

Simple and effective pore-minimizing treatments can give you a noticeably smoother, brighter complexion.

How can the appearance of large pores be reduced?

While we can’t shrink pores with any permanency, the right skin-care products and treatments can help keep the skin clear and tight, greatly reducing the appearance of large pores.

Clinical skin peels are an excellent way to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin.  Pores will immediately appear smaller and the skin will look vital and healthy. At Evolution Laser, we use an AFA Peel that is available in different concentrations that can be gradually increased with every treatment to significantly improve the skin’s tone and texture.  We also offer the Innovative Fire and Ice Facial, which combines a powerful, pore-minimizing, exfoliating peel and a rich, luxurious facial treatment into a single service.

Various laser resurfacing and rejuvenation therapies can also be used in combination to improve skin tone and texture and make pores appear smaller.

Please book a consultation to discuss which treatment would suit you best.
