How do you manage pores and rough skin texture as you get older?

When I was young, I never worried about my pores, but now that I’ve reached middle age, I can definitely see them stretching out downwards as my skin loses elasticity.

Even after washing my face and applying a generous amount of skincare, my makeup just sits on the surface and my skin feels dry and rough, so I sigh every time I look in the mirror.

If I get injections or laser treatments like Fraxel at a dermatology clinic that are said to be good for shrinking pores or improving elasticity, will my face feel tighter? Home care methods are also welcome, so please share any skincare routines you have found effective.
