Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR CONCERN.

Thanks for your query .Well acne and open pores are very common problem .Pores are pathway of oil to skin produce by sebaceous gland.Sometimes the duct of these glands get clogged and sebum start accumulate which further get infected to form acne.

There can be many reason for open pores like oily skin ,excessive sun exposure and ageing.

I would suggest you to wash your face more then twice a day to remove excess oil with mild soap,apply SPF 30 cream to protect skin from UV radiation,use salicylic acid based cleanser to reduce oil production and apply vitamin E oil at night .Fuller's earth will also be very helpful.

I f condition still persists then consult dermatologist H/she may prescribe you benzoyl peroxide based cream , azelaic acid based cream or topical antibiotics.


Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
