Enlarged pores frequently appear on the nose, cheeks, and forehead. These tiny openings on the skin’s surface can be exacerbated by a humid climate like Singapore’s, leading to increased sebum production and clogged pores that makes them seem more visible and enlarged.
While enlarged, visible pores are a common concern, their appearance can be improved with targeted treatments that unclog the pores and refine skin texture. Here at V Medical Aesthetics Clinic, our doctor-trained team offers a range of clinically-backed treatments to address enlarged pores and help you achieve smoother, clearer skin with renewed confidence.
the pores combined with dirt and makeup, they block and stretch the pores making it looks bigger. The fact is that our pore sizes is genetically determine. That means if a person is born with large pores, they are unable to change this fact. However they are treatments available to make our pores smaller and less visible by unclogging the pores and make the skin more supple to support the pores.
Enlarged pores are a prevalent skin issue with several contributing factors. Understanding these causes is the first step towards finding an effective large pores treatment.
At V Medical Aesthetics Clinic, we understand the frustration of dealing with prominent pores. We offer effective treatment options, backed by clinical expertise, to help target the underlying causes of enlarged pores, minimise their appearance, and improve your skin’s overall texture.
Pico Laser treatment delivers non-ablative, ultra-short pulses of laser energy to the skin. This breaks down pigment and stimulates collagen production without causing significant heat damage to the surrounding tissue. This helps to refine the skin’s surface, tighten the skin around the pores, and reduce pore visibility. It can also target sebaceous glands that produce oil, reducing the production of sebum and decreasing breakouts as well.

Fractional CO2 Laser treatment is a more intensive option for addressing enlarged pores and other skin concerns like acne scars and wrinkles. A non-invasive laser creates microscopic channels in the skin, stimulating significant collagen production, tissue regeneration, and skin resurfacing. This helps reduce the size and appearance of large pores.

A Hollywood Carbon Laser Peel is a gentle yet effective treatment for refining enlarged pores and improving overall skin clarity. It involves applying a thin layer of carbon lotion to the skin, which is then targeted with a Nd:YAG laser. The laser energy gently heats the carbon particles, removing dead skin cells, excess sebum, and impurities from the pores. This helps to unclog and shrink the appearance of large pores, leaving the skin smoother, brighter, and more refined.

Rejuran Healer utilises polynucleotides (PN) as an active ingredient, which are DNA fragments derived from salmon. When injected into the skin, PN stimulates collagen and elastin production, improves skin elasticity, and enriches skin hydration, helping to reduce the appearance of large pores.
Skin Boosters are injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) treatments designed to hydrate the skin from within. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the skin that attracts and retains moisture. By injecting HA into the skin, the treatment can help improve skin hydration, smoothness, plumpness, and radiance. This makes enlarged pores less noticeable. The hydrating effect is also suitable in Singapore’s climate, helping to counteract the drying effects of air-conditioning.
