Skin dryness after pregnancy/weightloss

2021-02-25 10:19:26
Hello doctor, 15 months after pregnancy my skin has become dried and some open pores are visible on my skin. Earlier I used glycolic acid cream. Is it fine to use it again or it will cause more dryness. Can you please recommend me some skin maintenance cream and medicated moisturizer(used emolene in the past, but now it is giving me pimples). I have dry acne prone skin. TIA
