You cannot 'close' a pore—it is a structural opening in the skin, not a door. However, you can significantly reduce its appearance. As we age, collagen breaks down, and the skin around the pore sags, making the opening look larger. Excess oil production also stretches pores.
How MNRF Shrinks Pores
Microneedling Radiofrequency (MNRF) is arguably the gold standard for enlarged pores. It works via a dual-action mechanism:
- Microneedling: Tiny needles create micro-injuries, forcing the body to produce new collagen and elastin.
- Radiofrequency: As the needles penetrate, they release heat energy deep into the dermis. This heat shrinks the sebaceous (oil) glands and causes immediate tissue tightening.
The Result
As the new collagen firms up the skin over 3 to 6 months, the walls of the pores tighten, making them look significantly smaller and refining the overall skin texture. Typically, 3 to 4 sessions are required for optimal results.
