Coarse pores
Treating coarse pores
Pores are small or large openings of sweat glands in the skin. They secrete both sebum (sebaceous glands) and moisture (sweat glands). Often these pores are found around the nose, forehead, chin and cheeks.
When the skin secretes a lot of sebum, the pores are wide open and can easily become clogged.
Dry skin has few pores, while combination skin shows many pores on the T Zone (forehead, nose and chin). We see the most coarse pores in oily skin.

What you can do yourself
There are several steps you can take to reduce coarse pores and make your skin look brighter and healthier. Start by cleansing your skin every morning and evening with an appropriate cleanser and toner. This helps to remove dirt, excess sebum and makeup residue that can clog and stretch pores. Drinking at least 2 liters of water a day helps keep your skin hydrated, which is essential for maintaining elasticity and a healthy complexion.
Use retinoid products, as scientific research has shown that these ingredients have a positive impact on pore function and can improve skin texture. Quitting smoking is also an important step, as smoking ages the skin and increases the appearance of pores.
Sebum-absorbing products, such as clay masks, can help absorb excess sebum and keep pores clean. Finally, nutritional supplements rich in antioxidants and cell nourishing ingredients can contribute to the overall health of your skin and promote elasticity, which reduces the appearance of coarse pores. By following these steps, you can actively work toward smoother and more refined skin.
