Hydrafacial treatments can be beneficial in reducing large pores by effectively cleansing and degunking them. This non-invasive procedure uses a combination of exfoliation, glycolic acid application, vacuuming, and hydration to improve skin tone and minimize pore visibility.
Dermatologists and cosmetic doctors offer a range of treatments to address large pores:
1. Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Treatments:These treatments can smooth skin, improve tone, and reduce pore size.
2. Microneedling: This procedure stimulates collagen production, resulting in fresher and firmer skin.
4. Skin Peels: Effective in toning and refreshing the skin, reducing the visibility of pores.
At Dr Wafaa Clinic, we offer a range of treatments to address large pores tailored to your individual needs. Our team of medical professionals is committed to providing you with personalized care and effective solutions for achieving your desired results. Book a consultation today.
1. Exfoliation: Gentle exfoliation helps eliminate dead skin cells, keeping the skin’s surface clean and smooth. Consider chemical exfoliation with products containing glycolic acid or salicylic acid for a milder and more effective approach.
2. Oiliness Reduction: Use retinol-based products to regulate oil production, improve collagen levels, and promote a more balanced complexion.
3. Collagen Production: Stimulate collagen production with treatments such as needling, radiofrequency, or laser therapies. These methods encourage the skin to create new collagen, resulting in a tightening effect and smaller pores over time.
Adopt a comprehensive skincare routine to naturally tighten and maintain the health of your skin:
– Regularly cleanse your face to remove impurities.
– Avoid touching your face with unclean hands.
– Incorporate a salicylic acid toner to help keep pores clear.
– Gently exfoliate two to three times a week.
– Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
– Use a hydrating serum twice daily to plump the skin and minimize pores.
– Apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin from sun damage.
– Consider using a night-time product containing Vitamin A (retinol).
– Use a clay mask occasionally for added pore-tightening benefits.
Large pores are visible openings in the skin, commonly found on the nose, chin, and forehead. They may contribute to an uneven skin texture and can be more prominent in individuals with oilier skin types.
The size of pores is primarily determined by genetics and the amount of sebum, the skin’s natural oil. When sebum, along with dead skin cells, accumulates and blocks the pores, it can lead to the formation of blackheads and contribute to larger pores.

After having Polynucleotides treatment in Dr Wafaa Clinic for 2 months (3 months for complete treatment), my skin condition has improved, more hydrated, elastic, and my eczema gradually dissapeared. I could not be more pleased. M Ibrahim2024-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Dr Wafaa is really great at what she does! I definitely recommend everyone to check out her work and clinic! Raluca I2023-12-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn’t recommend Dr Wafaa highly enough for her professionalism and care for her clients! I’ve had anti-ageing treatments done at a different clinic in Reading and Dr Wafaa is by far better and more professional. During my initial consultation, she’s taken some time to provide me with useful advice tailored to my skin. She has then performed the treatment/ injections and I’m very happy with the results! I cannot say the same about the other clinic i visited earlier in the year! She’s also recommended me a cream that works wonders. I highly recommend Dr Wafaa. ~Raluca~ Marwa Mahdi2023-12-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The atmosphere was calming, and I immediately felt at ease. Dr Waffa demonstrated a deep understanding of TMJ issues, and her expertise were evident throughout the process. The injections themselves were administered with precision and care. Dr Wafaa took the time to explain each step, making sure I felt comfortable and informed. Results were remarkable. Looking forward to my next treatment. Kerina NLoad more
