Summer is hot and humid, and the skin is easily oily and radiant. What's even more annoying is that the pores on the face look bigger? In fact, the thickening of pores is not something that happens every day or two. It's just that the high temperature, humidity, and strong ultraviolet rays in summer pose greater challenges to the skin, and pore problems become more prominent. In clinical practice, enlarged pores are related to various factors such as excessive sebum secretion, skin aging, and improper care. If you want to improve it better, targeted treatment should be given according to the different types of enlarged pores. The specific selection of methods should be determined by a professional doctor after a face-to-face consultation based on the condition of the pores. Water deficient type with enlarged pores is more common on both sides of the cheeks, with insufficient skin moisture. The pores are oval shaped and large, and may be accompanied by local flaking. At this time, water light acupuncture treatment can be selected. Small molecule hyaluronic acid can be injected into the dermis to lock water and increase skin moisture content, which is more effective than applying facial mask to replenish water. At the same time, the physical stimulation of the needle during the injection process can cause the skin to produce more collagen during the repair process, which can help shrink pores. Oil type enlarged pores are commonly found in the T-zone, with vigorous oil secretion and U-shaped dilated and greasy pores. The skin is prone to dullness and yellowing. For this type of pore, it is recommended to choose strong pulsed light (photon rejuvenation, superphotonic and other phototherapy), which can destroy sebaceous glands, inhibit sebum secretion, reduce inflammatory reactions, promote collagen regeneration, increase skin elasticity and improve enlarged pores. Aging type enlarged pores are more common in people over the age of 30 who begin to experience skin aging, with pores appearing in elongated or teardrop shapes. Non ablative dot matrix laser, carbon dioxide dot matrix laser, and other optoelectronic and radiofrequency treatments can be chosen. These types of treatments have a deeper penetration depth than strong pulsed light, resulting in relatively greater thermal damage. During the repair process, more collagen can be produced, which can shrink pores. After phototherapy, the skin will become drier in the short term, which is not conducive to the repair of our skin's water oil balance. At this time, it is better to combine with water light injection. Keratinous pores are enlarged and round, with acne present. Often caused by improper skincare and cleaning, old keratin accumulates and clogs pores. In this case, cleansing products containing fruit acid or salicylic acid can be used to gently remove old dead skin cells. Avoid frequent use of frosted products to prevent damage to the skin barrier. (New Society)
