Enlarged pores treatment in Dubai — what really helps
Enlarged pores are one of the most common skin concerns in hot, humid climates where oil production is higher.
Pores cannot be closed permanently, but they can look smaller. A dermatologist targets the cause — excess oil, acne, sun damage or loss of collagen — with prescription skincare, chemical peels, fractional laser or PRP, and a simple daily routine.
Key facts
- Pores can look smaller, not disappear
- Treat oil, acne or collagen loss
- Peels, laser, PRP options
- Sunscreen + gentle routine
Why pores look large
Oiliness, clogged pores, acne, sun damage and collagen loss with age that makes pore walls less supported.
Treatment options
Retinoid-based skincare, salicylic acid peels, fractional CO2 laser for texture and PRP for skin quality.
Daily routine
Gentle cleansing, non-comedogenic moisturiser and daily sunscreen — avoid harsh scrubs.
Chemical peels remove damaged outer layers of skin in a controlled way, improving tone, texture, acne and pigmentation. The peel strength is chosen for your skin type and goals.

Where can I get enlarged pores treated in Dubai?
Specialist Dermatologist Dr. Abdullah Anis treats enlarged pores at Manhal Medical Center in Dubai, with options such as chemical peels, fractional CO2 laser, prescription skincare and deep-cleansing hydra-dermabrasion facials. He first looks at what is driving them — oil, acne, sun damage or loss of firmness. Pores can be made less noticeable, but their size cannot be changed completely.
Why do my pores look bigger in Dubai's climate?
Heat and humidity increase oil and sweat, and sun damage weakens the skin around pores, which Dr. Abdullah Anis at Manhal Medical Center in Dubai takes into account in your plan. Heavy products can also clog pores. A gentle cleanser, non-comedogenic sunscreen and suitable active ingredients often help.
Which treatment works best for large pores on the nose and cheeks?
It depends on the cause: Dr. Abdullah Anis at Manhal Medical Center in Dubai may suggest peels or prescription creams for oily, congested pores and CO2 laser for pores linked to scarring or sun damage. A course of treatments usually gives better results than a single session. Picking or squeezing can enlarge pores and cause marks.

Reasonable price and great location. Great experience so far I had my laser done and very happy with the result. So I decided to purchase another package :)Like many people, I don't enjoy the dentist. For many years I avoided visits out of fear. I found Manhal 15 years ago, and he is a wonderful dentist. Calming presence. Excellent implantology as well as other dental work. I have recommended him personally to many friends, and will continue to do so. I just hope he doesn't ever retire. When I have been overseas with dental problems, I have flown back to Dubai specifically to see him. Could not imagine ever going to another dentist.this was my first visit to Dr Manhal after recomendation from my husband, i needed his consultation after i visited more than one doctor in Lebanon with no luck, i am glad i visited him, he is very professional the clinic is very clean with great staff
