Have Pimples And Open Pores On Face. What Treatment Should Be Done?
Question: i am 23 year old female and had pimples at college.Now, i dont have much of them but have open pores
Hi XXXXXXX
Acne can lead to scars, pits and open pores.
To treat these, the modalities available are
Chemical peels like Glycolic or salicylic acid peel
Microdermabrasion
Dermarollers
Lasers.
You can consult a doctor nearby to get your skin analysed , so that a personalised treatment plan can be suggested accordingly
Apart from that for open pores which are basically dilated oil gland openings, you may follow these
Use a salicylic acid based face wash
Use an alcohol free toner to minimise pores( temporarily)
Apply water based moisturiser
Apply tretinoin cream in night over face
Hope that helped
Take care
