If you have pimples, it will be helpful to contact the Dermatologist as you may be recommended to use Retinoids which is an excellent drug. If the 'holes' are scars it may require laser and other modules of plastic surgery/cosmetology treatment which is best if you understand the pros and cons from a Cosmetologist at a Hospital.

Hi!kelvin,
Welcome To HealthcareMagic forum,
Kelvin,if you have very small pores ,which we in medical terms call as ice pick scars ,the the best thing would be an IPL(Intense pulse light).This helps in constricting the pores.
The second thing (if not IPL) which you can opt for is fractional lasers.
If you have big size pitted scars ,then IPL wont work ,and fractional laser would be better.
But if you are getting pimples also ,then first treat your pimples and then go for pores.
Hope this helps you deciding a treatment .
regards,
Dr.Bharat Chawda
