It seems like the pores on my cheeks are getting wider. Is treatment possible?
2026.11.07 23:29
Lately, I've been concerned because the pores on both of my cheeks have become much more noticeable. In particular, the pores look dense along the area extending from the sides of my nose to below my cheekbones, and the skin surface feels uneven. When I apply makeup, foundation gets stuck in the pores, and it becomes even more prominent over time. I usually take a fairly thorough approach to my basic skincare routine, but I don't see much of a difference.
Do pores on the cheeks widen due to excessive sebum production? Or can they also sag as elasticity decreases with age? I assume the treatment method varies depending on the cause, so what kind of procedure would be best to look into first?
I am also curious if procedures like Fraxel or Potenza are effective for improving pores on the cheeks. I am wondering about the redness after the procedure and the recovery period.

- 01CommentsSince your cheeks feel tight while breakouts are appearing on your chin and around your mouth, I imagine you are wondering whether to prioritize exfoliation or soothing. I also tend to experience both dryness and acne in the winter, so I was curious about how often to schedule exfoliation treatments like Aqua Peel to minimize the burden. It would also be helpful if you could mention during the consultation that the areas exposed to heating are different from the areas with breakouts.220026.11.07
- 02CommentsIf you are concerned about blackheads on your nose and cheeks, as well as pimples along your jawline, it must be overwhelming to know where to start with your care. As I also have acne-prone skin, I was wondering if it is possible to receive blackhead and acne treatments on the same day. I would appreciate it if you could provide answers regarding irritation and downtime for sensitive areas like the nose, so I can take them into consideration.240026.11.06
