Large pores are more common in people with oily or combination skin and each person will have a normal pore size for their skin type. However, they can also be worsened by other factors, such as:
- Genetics: Some people are more likely to have large pores than others.
- Sun Exposure: Sun exposure can damage the skin and cause pores to enlarge.
- Age: Enlarged pores may be more common with age, as the skin loses elasticity.
- Medications: Some medications, such as steroids, can cause enlarged pores.
Causes
Large pores are caused by a combination of factors, including:
- Excess sebum production: Oily skin produces more sebum, causing it to accumulate in the pores and can cause them to dilate.
- Increased size of the hair follicle: The hair follicle, which is the structure of the skin that contains the hair, can also increase in size, which can contribute to the dilation of the pores.
- Skin deterioration: As we age, the skin loses elasticity and firmness, which can cause pores to enlarge.
