I have been dealing with very large nose pores for a long time. It has destroyed my self-esteem and any self-worth that I have as a twenty year old. The holes on my nose are the same size as the back of a stud earring. I have close to 60 of these pores all over the front of my nose, excluding the ones on the sides.

I was told by a skin doctor that they are permanent and there is nothing that i can do about it. But I can't accept it. I tried covering the gaping holes with layers of foundation and BB cream but to no avail.

Please help me! It is destroying me.

The gaping nose pores are much larger than they appear in the picture. I took this picture from a distance and the pores are already so obvious.

@CuriousGavialLaser treatments can help shrink the pores.

I would recommend trying aha products and peels before I trying lasers. Laser is kind of a last resort, and your skin really doesnt look that bad.

It's true, you can't actually shrink your pores. However, you can minimize their appearance. Use primer and get regular peels. Maybe try retin-A as well.

As I know once your pores are enlarged, it's hard to shrink them, the only thing to help this is to clean your the blackhead in your pore, give your skin enough moisture (when pores absorbe enough water, they'll visually look smaller) also use scrub regularly, to get rid of dead skin, then the following facial product will more easily to absorb by skin.
Remember, don't leave grease has any chance stays in pores for too long turns into blackhead, otherwise the pore enlarging will still continue.:new_smiley_49:
overall, cleaning is the most important thing to help pores.

Heard some laser treatments are useful to pores, but it's only to do with those r recently enlarged, treatments are only help with the cleaning...
if those pores have been enlarged for ages, it might be hard to make then back to they're used to be...
