Understanding Oily Skin & Enlarged Pores

  • Oily skin occurs when sebaceous glands produce excess sebum, leading to shine, clogged pores, and acne breakouts. Enlarged pores often accompany oily skin, making the skin appear rough and uneven. While pores cannot be “shrunk,” they can be minimized with proper skincare and treatments.
  • Excess oil production clogs pores, leading to blackheads and acne.
  • Enlarged pores are more visible on oily skin due to trapped sebum and debris.
  • Genetics, aging, and sun damage contribute to enlarged pores.
  • Regular cleansing and exfoliation help maintain clearer skin.

Visible, dilated pores on the cheeks, nose, and forehead.

Frequent blackheads, whiteheads, and acne breakouts.

Makeup doesn’t stay in place due to excess oil.

Pores appear more prominent with age and sun damage.
