Big Pores? How to get rid of them ASAP ?
Why you have big pore?
Pimples and skin blemishes are common and often embarrassing. Skin blemishes are caused by oils, shedding skin cells and occasionally bacteria that become trapped in hair shafts. This material irritates the shaft and causes inflammation and the familiar pimples. Careful skin care can minimize clogged pores and prevent the widespread pimples and inflammation of acne.
Clogged pores are caused by natural oils, or sebum, that lubricate the skin and hair.
Each hair follicle connects to a sebaceous gland, which produces oils. The oils move up along the hair shaft through the skin layers, according to the Mayo Clinic. The hair follicle opens on the skin surface to form pores. Excess sebum combines with dead skin cells and plugs the hair shaft. The plug makes the shaft bulge, causing a comedone, or a whitehead or blackhead. Whiteheads occur when the pore remains closed, whereas blackheads are created when the pore is open to the air. The color of blackheads is caused by melanin, a skin pigment, in the clogged pore. Melanin oxidizes in the air and turns dark. Bacteria may also be found in the clogged pores, causing other types of blemishes such as papules and pustules, which are red and tender bumps.
Type Of Clogged Pores:-
Microcomedones
Basic acne lesions are called microcomedones, which occur when hair follicles become blocked with oil and bacteria starts growing. These lesions are referred to as microcomedones because they are invisible to the naked eye.
Whiteheads
Microcomedones transition into non-inflamed blemishes known as comedones. When oil and bacteria stay trapped below the surface of the skin, they are called closed comedones or whiteheads, which are often invisible but may appear as small white spots. Whiteheads may ultimately release oil and bacteria to the surface of the skin and heal on their own or they may cause the follicle wall to rupture and result in inflammatory acne.
Blackheads
If the follicle wall of a blackhead or whitehead ruptures--sometimes due to a person picking at his blemishes but sometimes at random--white blood cells flood in for healing and cause the pore to become inflamed, according to Acne.org. This event marks the formation of a papule. When those white blood cells eventually work up toward the skin’s surface and become visible, they form what is known a pustule, also called a pimple or a zit.
Nodules and Cysts
A very deep blockage of a follicle can cause extreme inflammation and result in the most severe form of acne, lesions known as nodules and cysts, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. Nodules and cysts are similar in that they are large and painful, but they differ in that nodules are hard bumps that form deep beneath the surface of the skin and cysts are pus-filled lesions that have the potential to scar, according to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases.
