Question

Im 2 and half weeks post op and my face has broke out terribly in acne, and I have never had a break out not even during puberty or while on my monthly, I might get a occasional pimple or two but this I have is ridiculous, has this happened to anyone else and what did you use to clear it up ?

how long has it been since your surgery and is it getting clearer and did your dermatologist prescribe you something?

I am 6 weeks post op. I had a bad rash that I did get a prescription for but I didn't get anything for the breakouts. I am just treating them OTC. It stinks !!
