Subjective and objective reasons for enlarged facial pores.

The main reason for rough skin is enlarged pores. Enlarged pores are usually caused by hormone disorders, excessive stress, environmental pollution, poor cleaning, etc. So what are the specific reasons for enlarged facial pores?

Subjective reasons

Grease and dirt blockage

Adolescence is the peak period of oil secretion. Excessive oil secretion causes pores to be clogged, and the skin cannot metabolize normally, causing the pores to enlarge.

Excessive squeezing and pressing

Adolescence is the period when acne occurs frequently. Excessive squeezing and pressing of pimples and blackheads may damage the dermis and enlarge the pores.

Objective reasons

Follicular keratosis

Abnormal keratinization of hair follicles and sebaceous gland openings. Due to factors such as uncoordinated lifestyle, hormone secretion, and seasonal changes, keratin cannot be metabolized normally. Excessive accumulation of keratin at the hair follicles and sebaceous gland openings makes the pores rough and easily clogged, resulting in enlarged pores.

Skin aging and atrophy

The aging and atrophy of skin tissues are inevitable. Usually at a certain age, the skin pores will become loose, blood circulation will gradually become blocked, and skin metabolism will begin to slow down. At the same time, the skin lacks elasticity, and the skin collagen begins to loosen, which is not enough to support the surrounding pores, making the pores appear oval and enlarged. Therefore, enlarged pores are usually most likely to be seen near some dynamic lines, such as crow's feet, corners of the mouth, and nasolabial lines.

Excessive oil secretion

Excessive oil secretion and failure to excrete in time will cause excess oil to accumulate in the hair follicles, swelling the pores, and gradually making the pores appear larger. This condition usually occurs during adolescence and is often accompanied by acne and blackheads.

Dry and dehydrated skin

When the skin is dry and dehydrated, the cells around the pores will also lack water and shrink. At the same time, the cuticle will become dry and rough, and the pores will become more obvious.

Special tip: When you have too much oil secretion, you can't help but take out a deep cleansing mask, but be careful - many deep cleansing masks will first expand the pores before they can penetrate deep into the pores to bring out the oil and dirt. Therefore, you must remember to "tighten" afterwards.
