Its not fat, it sebum (oil). I know one of the warnings for women using AAS is that it can enlarge poors and increase sebum output. If you're on any kind of hormone therapy then it could make the pores larger. That whitish substance is oil that has solidified. Age is a factor too because as you age the muscle that controls the contractions of a pore relaxes, making it look bigger. I used to work in cosmetics, and the number one concern I got from women was enlarged pores. Exfoliating can help remove any blockages that are causing oil to back up, but pore size is generally set by genetics. (I'm guessing they are hormone dependent too if AAS affects them though.) I have seen cases where women have let the oil collect for so long that the pores seemed to have stretched/relaxed permanently. Toner's don't make pores smaller either, they just cause them to contract temporarily.Originally Posted by fitguy

well the oil you can squeeze out is from the sebum glands that produce oil. Accutane works by damaging these glands and making them incappable of producing oil. So if it stops the oil glands from pumping oil out would that not solve your problem?
Also vitman b5 will help dry the glands up, but you should also try to incorperate more anti-dioxodents into your diet.

I've taken accutane twice when I was younger and your best bet for clogged pores would be to exfoliate about twice a week with an apricot facial scrub and apply benzoyl peroxide twice a day to problem areas. Skin will feel and look better in a few weeks.

Sun exposure and makeup (for the ladies) can also increase pore size. But for the most part its genetically determined.
