Large Facial Pores Treatment
The best large facial pores treatment in Kenya uses dermatological procedures, prescription medications, and effective skincare products.
Dermatology Procedures for Large Facial Pores Treatment
Dermatology procedures used for large facial pores treatment include microneedling, microdermabrasion, and laser therapy.
Microneedling
Microneedling is a procedure in which a device with micro-needles is used to create micro-injuries in the skin. This process stimulates the body’s healing process and boosts collagen production. Collagen production is crucial for minimizing pores since it strengthens the structures around the pores which helps them appear smaller.
We offer professional microneedling at our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Clinic which is located in Fortis Suites, Hospital road, 8th floor, room 809. We see new clients on Saturdays at 10am and Wednesdays at 2pm.

Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a procedure which uses a device to painlessly remove the dead cells on the surface of the skin. This unclogs the pores and helps them appear smaller. Microdermabrasion also boosts collagen production which supports the tissues around the pores and further helps them seem smaller. Microdermabrasion also improves the absorption of the pore-shrinking skincare products.

Chemical Peels
A chemical peel is a procedure in which a special solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layer of dead cells by loosening the glue that holds them together. Removing these dead skin cells cleans the pores and helps reduce their size.

Laser Therapy
Laser therapy uses light beams to boost collagen production. Ablative lasers remove the top layers of the skin which helps to minimize pores.
Prescription Medications for Large Facial Pores Treatment
Prescription medications used for large pores treatment include retinoids. These medications boost collagen production which provides support to the tissues around the pores and helps them appear smaller. They also reduce oil production which further helps the pores seem smaller.
Our Doctor can prescribe these medications in our Nairobi Almasi Skincare Clinic which is located in Fortis Suites, Hospital road, 8th floor, room 809. We see new clients on Saturdays at 10am and Wednesdays at 2pm.
