Dry skin and enlarged pores can result from dehydration, aging, genetics, harsh skincare products, or environmental factors like cold weather and low humidity. Oil production decreases with age, making pores appear larger.

Use gentle cleansers, apply moisturizers daily, stay hydrated, and use sunscreen. Exfoliate 1-2 times weekly and consider retinol products. Avoid harsh soaps and hot water that strip natural oils.
When should I see a doctor about dry skin and enlarged pores?
Consult a dermatologist if dry skin causes itching, flaking, or pain, or if home treatments don't improve symptoms after several weeks. Professional treatments like chemical peels may help.
