What are dilated pores?
Micro-openings present on the surface of the skin, dilated pores are more or less enlarged depending on the skin's texture, the presence of blackheads or sebum, particularly if the skin tends to shine throughout the day. While dilated pores may appear on younger skin, they are equally prominent on more mature skin, which becomes less firm over time. Located in the mid-zone of the face (forehead, nose, chin), dilated pores release sebum and sweat, contributing to the formation of blackheads.
Dilated pores can also be caused by smoking or sun exposure. Good practices are recommended to prevent and/or tighten them. It is essential to have a proper understanding of your skin type. By adequately hydrating the epidermis, you avoid greasing your face and reduce the likelihood of pore dilation. This will also serve as an excellent base before makeup application. Remember to cleanse your skin with micellar water or a gentle cleanser. Don't forget to exfoliate your skin and use masks to nourish it deeply.
Why opt for the Juliet laser treatment?
The marks left by dilated pores should be treated with varying intensities. Thus, the treatment may require several sessions, typically spaced 1 to 2 months apart, with complete sun avoidance to prevent rebound pigmentation. In nearly all cases, the treatment will be painless. If a deeper treatment is planned, the doctor will prescribe a healing cream.
The Juliet laser creates micro-coagulation pits by employing the principle of photothermolysis, which involves rapidly heating a specific target, such as fibroblasts, while minimising the heating of the dermis. This technique allows for deep action and limits thermal diffusion. The stimulation of skin cells promotes rapid recovery, resulting in significantly reduced social avoidance. Multiple passes will be made on the affected area, creating numerous impacts within the dermis. In response, the skin will naturally regenerate by healing at these points, appearing tighter.
Take care of your epidermis and do not hesitate to consult a professional if the marks of dilated pores or blackheads concern you.
