A member asked:

How can i get rid of small pores on my face, it leads to blackheads. i don't want to try laser or peeling. please suggest some affordable remedy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Retin A (tretinoin): Retin a (tretinoin) or one of it's derivatives like tazorac or differin, are excellent treatment creams to help reduce your pores. The medicine takes more than 2 months to see results but be patient and you will see some improvement.
