How to Treat Large Pores and Uneven Skin Texture
If your skin feels rough, looks bumpy under makeup, or seems to have visible pores that never shrink — you’re not alone. Texture issues are one of the most common concerns we see, and they’re not always caused by breakouts.
At Platinum Cosmetics, we focus on restoring smooth, even texture using treatments that support the skin’s structure — not just cover it up.
What Causes Enlarged Pores and Texture Issues?
Pores can appear larger when:
Oil and dead skin build up in the follicle
Skin loses elasticity with age
Sun damage thickens the skin surface
Previous acne or congestion has stretched pore openings
Barrier damage creates roughness or flaking
Texture issues can also stem from dryness, poor cell turnover, or mild scarring — all of which can make skin appear dull or uneven.
How We Treat Texture at Platinum Cosmetics
At our Port Melbourne clinic, we offer several options to smooth the surface and refine the appearance of pores:
Laser resurfacing with Fotona
This helps stimulate collagen, smooth roughness, and tighten the skin gently — reducing the appearance of enlarged pores and improving clarity.
Skin rejuvenation treatments
These can improve tone, boost cell turnover, and support hydration for a more even surface. Great for mild scarring or dry, lacklustre skin.
Custom facials
We often recommend enzyme-based or hydrating facials to refine the skin gently, without over-exfoliating or compromising the barrier.
Skincare That Supports Texture Refinement
Your home routine plays a critical role in maintaining results. We usually suggest:
Niacinamide to regulate oil and reduce pore visibility
Lactic or mandelic acid (gentle AHAs) to encourage regular exfoliation
Hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or panthenol
Barrier support to keep the skin resilient and smooth
All of these can be explored through our curated in-clinic skin care range.
How Long Does It Take to See Results?
Most clients see visible improvement after 3–5 sessions, particularly when treatments are supported with daily skincare and SPF. Texture improves progressively — the more consistent your plan, the better your results.
