Pores
Enlarged pores are one of the most searched skin concerns, and also one of the most misunderstood. Pores do not open and close, but they do look larger when they are congested, when the surrounding skin has lost its firmness, or when the surface texture is uneven. Addressing those underlying factors is what actually makes a difference at Bella Sante MD, which we excel at.
FAQs on Pores
Pores tend to look larger when they are congested with oil and dead skin cells, when the surrounding skin has lost its firmness and collagen support, or when the overall skin texture is uneven. In many cases it is a combination of all three, which is why treatment works best when we address the specific cause rather than applying a generic approach.
Yes. Bela MD and microneedling both improve pore appearance with minimal to no downtime. For more significant concerns, treatments with a short recovery period tend to deliver more noticeable results.
Results from collagen stimulating treatments can be long lasting, but pore appearance can worsen again with congestion or ongoing sun exposure. A good skincare routine and periodic maintenance treatments help sustain what we achieve together.
It depends on what is primarily driving your pore concerns and which treatment we recommend. We will give you a realistic plan at your consultation rather than a one size fits all answer.
