Ever wondered why your skin texture doesn’t improve even after using pore-minimizing products? The reason could be that you’re confusing open pores with ice pick scars. 👀 Open pores are enlarged skin openings usually caused by excess oil production, genetics, aging, or sun damage. They appear wider and more visible on the surface of the skin. Ice pick scars, on the other hand, are deep, narrow acne scars that extend into the skin, giving a small “punctured” appearance. These are caused by severe acne and usually require professional treatments like chemical peels, microneedling, TCA CROSS, or laser procedures. ✨ Key Difference: • Open pores = surface texture concern • Ice pick scars = deeper skin damage Knowing the difference helps you choose the right skincare and treatments instead of wasting time on products that may not work for your concern.
