And it's really hard when you see someone who's like 15, 18, 20 coming in with this beautiful glass skin.

They also have so much collagen, that sort of structural protein in the skin that's

squeezing on their pores and keeping it nice and tight.

Everyone's pores get bigger as they get older because their collagen breaks down and everything sort of like widens out.

But yes, all of that is genetic.

And I definitely have people who come into my office who have the most beautiful glass skin and they're doing nothing for it.

Yes.

I mean, niacinamide is one of them.

Now, niacinamide is included in a lot of skincare.

So like a lot of sunscreens, a lot of moisturizers, a lot of serums already have niacinamide in them.

So you don't necessarily need a separate niacinamide step.

But if I have a patient who's really oily, who has very prominent pores, I often will recommend a separate niacinamide step at a higher concentration, like 10 to 15 percent, which is

really high, but if they don't get irritated from it, it really can reduce the appearance of their pores when they use it consistently.

Is it okay to use tretinoin and niacinamide?

Yes, niacinamide is nice because it basically plays nice with everything.

Now, like all ingredients, not everyone's skin is going to get along with that ingredient, but if it does, it can be leveraged well.

If you're going to look at one ingredient to try to like look more poreless, more textureless, that's it?

I would say my order of that would be like retinol or some type of retinoid for sure.

But yes, that can really help.

And then also just thinking about skin cell turnover, because sometimes the glass skin is also due to the fact that there's not a lot of buildup of dead skin cells on the surface.
