What Are Enlarged Pores and Texture Concerns?
Enlarged pores and uneven skin texture are among the most common skin concerns — often caused by excess oil, congestion, collagen loss, or reduced cell turnover. Over time, these factors can make the skin appear rough, dull, or uneven, especially across the nose, cheeks, and forehead.
While pore size is influenced by genetics, the appearance of enlarged pores can be dramatically improved with targeted, collagen-stimulating treatments that refine, tighten, and smooth the skin’s surface.
At NovaLx Aesthetics, we use advanced, non-invasive technologies to restore skin clarity and texture; revealing a complexion that looks smoother, healthier, and more refined.
How We Treat It
Our pore and texture treatments are designed to cleanse, resurface, and regenerate the skin using results-driven techniques that balance oil production, boost collagen, and refine surface texture. Each treatment plan is tailored to your skin type and sensitivity, ensuring visible results with minimal downtime.
1. HydraGenesis
Unique to NovaLx, this dual technology combines HydraFacial’s deep cleansing and exfoliation with Laser Genesis collagen stimulation for complete rejuvenation. HydraGenesis clears impurities, tightens pores, and polishes texture from the surface while stimulating collagen deep within the dermis for ongoing improvement.
Results:
Tighter, refined pores
Smoother, even texture
Immediate glow with progressive long-term benefits
2. RF Microneedling (Secret PRO by Cutera)
This advanced treatment delivers radiofrequency energy through ultra-fine needles to stimulate collagen and elastin production. It targets uneven texture, acne scarring, and enlarged pores by strengthening skin structure and promoting healthy cell turnover. Safe and effective for all skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–VI) with minimal downtime.
Results:
Refined, firmer texture
Reduction in visible pores and scars
Long-term collagen renewal
3. Professional Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use medical-grade acids such as glycolic, salicylic, or lactic acid to gently remove dead skin cells, regulate oil, and promote smoother texture. This treatment helps minimise pore visibility, brighten dull areas, and maintain long-term skin clarity.
Results:
Polished, radiant complexion
Smoother texture and balanced oil production
