The Secret to Minimising Pores

Open and enlarged pores are a concern experienced by men and women alike, with the two main causes being genetics and age.

Ageing causes pores to become enlarged in appearance because as our skin elasticity reduces, the walls of the pore lose structure. This then causes our pores to appear larger and more obvious. While we may not be able to stop ageing or change our genetics, we can help reduce the appearance of ageing by using the right skin care, investing in anti-ageing skin rejuvenation treatments, and finding a great mineral make-up range to help minimise the visibility of large open pores.

Cleansers & Exfoliators

We recommend Balense Exfoliant to help reveal a hydrated, polished complexion.

Serums & Moisturisers

Serums and moisturisers are important for keeping the skin in a healthy condition and protecting the skin from the environment. Look out for serums containing Vitamin C for the daytime and Vitamin A for the night-time. When applied to your newly cleansed and polished skin, it will literally drink up the nutritional boost.

Treatments for open pores

There are several treatments that can help to reduce the appearance of open pores. At The Cosmetic Clinic we favour medi-aesthetic face peels or micro-needling, Skinvive and the use of our Balense or AestheticsRx skincare range depending upon your skin type and the severity.
