Help for Enlarged Skin Pores

Help for Enlarged Skin Pores

What exactly are skin pores, and why are they important?

They are the outer openings of the glands that carry oil, moisture and waste matter to the skin's surface. They also help control body temperature.

When the environment is cold, tiny muscles close the pores to help retain body heat. When the temperature rises, the pores open and secrete moisture, which evaporates and creates "cold", to help the body maintain its normal temperature.

All of this is done without our doing a thing, or even being aware of what our wonderfully amazing bodies are doing for us. Truly, we are "fearfully and wonderfully made" (Psalm 149:14).

In addition, 90 percent of our breathing is done through the pores, so do you see why it is so important to keep these openings clean?

What causes our pores to enlarge?

When pore secretions dry up in the "neck" of the pore, the pore becomes clogged, and new secretions accumulate behind the obstruction, causing an enlargement, as in this grapefruit picture. When the obstruction is removed, the pore will return to normal size. But if the pore neck has been stretched open for too long, the pore will remain large for a week or two, and will gradually close.

Other factors can aggravate this condition such as dirt, grime and other pollutants in the environment. Unless the surface skin is thoroughly cleansed, these elements can remain on the skin surface, causing the pores to enlarge even further.

Improper skin care can also add to the problem. Cleansing the skin with heavy creams or moisturizing with products containing waxes, oils and other fillers can leave a residue to collect in the pores.

So far I've listed only external sources, but actually diet is also an important factor if you want truly healthy skin. If you really want to help keep your pores clean and your complexion radiant, eat more health-giving raw fruits and vegetables.
