Acne anyone???

Did anyone else go through an intense bout of acne post-op??  My face has exploded on my chin and my lower right cheek.  I cannot get it to go away!  I have tried several of the specialized creams and nothing has worked.  I am assuming it has to do with the change in hormones that happens as you loose weight.  Does anyone have any advice on how to treat it, or is it a "wait it out" thing.  I am trying a new facial cleanser to see if that works.

Proactiv does work.  I had teenagers that used it.

I was a smidge low in both at my appointment a month ago.  They didn't reccomend me taking any supplements though, just that they wanted me to retest in 6 months.  I wondered about that.

Thanks Happy, for all of the good advice.  I think I will start to see my family dr. with regards to my vitamin levels.  The clinic never seems to be very worried about anything.  I've always thought I'd like to be tested on a more regular basis.  The are only sending me every 6 months now.
