Pores are small openings on the skin that release sweat and sebum (oil) to keep the skin healthy. However, when oil production increases or dead skin cells build up, pores stretch and become more noticeable. Factors like genetics, age, sun exposure, and improper skincare can make the condition worse.
Common causes of enlarged pores include:
Excess sebum production: Oily skin tends to have larger, more visible pores.
Clogged pores: Accumulation of dirt, makeup, and dead cells stretches pores.
Loss of skin elasticity: Aging and sun damage reduce collagen, making pores appear larger.
Genetics: Pore size often runs in families.
Improper skincare habits: Over-cleansing, harsh scrubbing, or using the wrong products can worsen pore visibility.
Our experts at Hair & Aesthetic Skin Clinic understand these challenges and provide customized solutions to minimize pores safely and effectively.
Indian skin, typically falling under Fitzpatrick types III–V, is rich in melanin and more prone to post-inflammatory pigmentation and oily-combination textures. The hot and humid environment increases sweat and sebum secretion, making pores appear larger.
Hence, treatments designed for Western skin tones may not always be suitable. Our clinic uses India-specific protocols that deliver visible results without causing pigmentation, redness, or irritation.
At Hair & Aesthetic Skin Clinic, every patient undergoes a thorough skin analysis using advanced imaging technology. Our dermatologists evaluate:
Skin type and sebum levels
Depth and distribution of enlarged pores
Associated issues like acne, blackheads, or uneven tone
Based on this assessment, we create a personalized treatment plan that may combine multiple technologies for best results.
1. Medical-Grade Chemical Peels
Chemical peels help exfoliate dead cells, reduce excess oil, and unclog pores. We use custom-formulated peels containing ingredients like glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, and retinol—carefully balanced for Indian skin sensitivity.
Stimulates collagen remodeling
Improves skin texture and tone
Minimizes pore size gradually
A series of 4–6 sessions provides smoother, clearer skin with a visible glow.
2. Laser Skin Resurfacing
Fractional Laser Treatment is one of the most effective solutions for enlarged pores and uneven skin texture.
Using FDA-approved technology, we deliver micro-laser beams to the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production, tightening the skin and refining pores.
Safe for darker Indian skin tones
Minimal downtime
Long-lasting improvement
Our dermatologists customize laser energy settings to your skin type, ensuring results without the risk of burns or pigmentation.
3. Microneedling with RF (Radiofrequency)
This advanced treatment combines microneedling and radiofrequency energy to tighten skin and shrink enlarged pores. The micro-needles create controlled micro-injuries that boost collagen regeneration, while radiofrequency energy further firms the skin.
Safe for all Indian skin types
Reduces pore size, fine lines, and acne scars
Improves skin smoothness and elasticity
A course of 3–4 sessions at monthly intervals is usually recommended.
4. HydraFacial MD
HydraFacial is a non-invasive, no-downtime treatment that deeply cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin.
For enlarged pores, it effectively removes blackheads, oil, and impurities while infusing antioxidants and peptides.
Regular HydraFacials maintain oil balance and prevent pores from enlarging again, keeping your complexion fresh and healthy.
5. Carbon Laser Peel (Hollywood Peel)
This popular treatment uses activated carbon particles to absorb impurities, followed by laser pulses that exfoliate and shrink pores.
It’s ideal for oily and acne-prone Indian skin and offers instant radiance.
Benefits include:
Deep pore cleansing
Reduction in blackheads and acne
Improved skin tone and smoothness
6. Medical Skincare Regimen
Our dermatologists recommend a customized home-care routine that complements clinical treatments.
We prescribe dermatologist-tested cleansers, toners, serums, and sunscreens that regulate sebum production, unclog pores, and maintain hydration without irritation.
Key ingredients include niacinamide, retinoids, salicylic acid, and ceramides — perfectly balanced for Indian skin needs.
