Open Pores: Causes, Concerns, and Treatment

Open pores are the natural openings of oil glands on the skin. When these openings become excessively dilated, they appear more prominent and can affect skin texture and tone. While open pores are not a medical condition that can be permanently cured, they are a common aesthetic concern as they contribute to an uneven skin surface and a dull complexion.

Key Characteristics of Open Pores:

• Most commonly seen on the cheeks and nose
• Can sometimes resemble pitted acne scars, requiring differentiation
• Tend to trap oil, dirt, and impurities, leading to whiteheads, blackheads, and acne

Causes of Open Pores:

• Overactive oil glands (excess sebum production)
• Chronic sun exposure, which damages collagen and enlarges pores
• Aging, leading to reduced skin elasticity and a stretched pore appearance
