Why Do Pores Keep Getting Bigger?
Enlarged pores are one of the most common skin concerns. Understanding why they enlarge is the first step to minimizing them.
5 Reasons Pores Enlarge
1. Excess Sebum Production
Overactive sebaceous glands physically expand pores. This is why T-zone pores tend to be the largest.
2. Blackheads and Sebum Plugs
Dead skin and sebum form plugs inside pores, stretching them from within.
3. Loss of Skin Elasticity
After age 25, collagen and elastin decrease, weakening the support structure around pores.
4. Improper Skincare
Squeezing, harsh scrubs, and heavy oil-based products all damage pore tissue.
5. UV Damage
UV rays destroy collagen and thicken skin — a hidden cause of pore enlargement.
