My skin started to develop dark patches from my first trimester of pregnancy also I had severe breakouts on my face.
This is my first pregnancy.Now I'm a new mom gave birth on14th of June, and it was C section.Intially my Gynecologist told me that the pigmentation will fade away gradually but it's becoming more and my skin is darkening with open pores.
I don't have a even skin tone now. Pls advice what I should be doing about this is there any products that I can use which is safe during breastfeeding my baby.
My skin condition is becoming worse and I m worried. I have oily to combination skin so if I use any Cream based products I breakout. Only mild lotions suit me.
What can I use? How to get rid of this pigmentation??

Hello dear. Congratulations on becoming a mother.
Chloasma, or pregnancy mask, is quite common and usually subsides soon after delivery without any treatment
You can send me a clear picture via online consultation so that I can assess the problem and give you a prescription
