Tips To Reduce Pore Size

To many people, large pores are a huge deal. The result of large pores is due to the body producing too much sebum. The sebaceous gland is positioned all over the body. These glands create sebum which makes your skin moist. The excessive stimulation of the sebaceous glands leads to excessive secretion of sebum. Too much sebum will block the pores and make them larger. Many methods to tread large pore are just temporary. The best result comes from the costly medical procedures.

  • Boil a pot of water. Turn off the heat. Put a towel on your head to gather the steam. Lean the pot, about 3 to 5 inch off the ground. Let the hot steam cover your face and open the pores. Steam your face about 10 minutes for the pores to open.

  • Visit your dermatologist for a skin check-up. Consider the microdermabrasion method (treating large pores by skin abrasion) or chemical peel to minimize the pores. These 2 treatments will peel off the epidermis or the top skin layer. The microdermabrasion method uses the crystals in a hand-held device. The chemical peel uses the acids such as glycolic or lactic acid to exfoliate the top layer of epidermis. These 2 methods make the pores look smaller.
