Pregnancy acne
Hello,
I am facing a lot of acne problem after conceiving. My skin is very oily and I underwent skin treatment (used isoretinol tablets) around 2 years back. My concern was completely resolved after that and there was no acne problem.
Its been 2 months of pegnancy but alot of pimples have appeared on my face. I know I can not take isoretinol anymore as it very harmful for baby.
Please suggest some medications to control this.

Hi. Greetings. Firstly see a qualified dermatologist near you. Secondly medicinal or tablet treatment for acne is best avoided in pregnancy. Even among creams very few can be used in pregnancy. Warm regards
