Hi everyone! So, I have just recently cleared up my acne but now my HUGE pores are bothering me!! I am aware that you cannot physically shrink the size of your pores at home. I exfoliate, steam, and wash my face well...I was just born with large pores :( I was wondering if anyone has any experience with laser treatments or maybe chemical peels and if they're worth it?

If your born with large pores you can not really shrink them. You can make them look small for a short period of time but that's about it.

pixel or fraxel resurfacing can really help reduce the appearance of pore size. microdermabrasion is also a more temporary solution. I am a certified laser tech/aesthetician so I have seen amazing results in my clients' skin with these treatments. good luck!

Co2 frax laser. A lot of down time and it literally BLOWS of your skin but works wonders. Make sure you go to a decent place bc they treatment is no joke.
