I've become interested in pore care. Has anyone seen pore-shrinking effects?

Hi haha. I've been having a lot of skin concerns lately, so I'm looking into various things. In the past, I only cared about skin troubles, but recently, my pores have started to become more noticeable. I'm getting stressed because the pores around my nose and cheeks look more prominent than I expected, especially when I look closely in the mirror or take photos.

So recently, I've been looking into pore care methods, and I found that there are actually many more types than I expected. With a wide variety ranging from at-home pore care products to dermatological procedures, I'm confused about which method is effective.

I am particularly curious about the pore-shrinking effect. When reading online reviews, some people say that consistent pore care improves skin texture and noticeably reduces pore size. However, others say they didn't notice a significant difference, so I am curious about actual experiences.

I am doing my best with pore care. I cleanse thoroughly and apply moisturizer consistently, but I haven't really seen the changes I was hoping for yet, haha. I wonder if there is something I might be missing.

I would also like recommendations for products or skincare routines that help shrink pores. In particular, if anyone has undergone dermatological procedures, I am curious to know which treatments you were most satisfied with.

I’ve heard that pore care isn’t something that can be solved in the short term and requires consistency. I’m curious how long I actually need to manage it to see results. I’d appreciate some honest advice from those with experience.
