As for coarse pores due to aged cutin, there will be round and poriform acnes in black or white, and sometimes with acne protrusions in the pores.
For the ones due to excessive oil secretion, the pores enlarge in U shape, meanwhile the skin is dark, yellow and dull.

No, it’s not permanent. But it can last for a quite long period, the duration of which depends on personal physical condition and maintenance.
