Yes, it's happening to me. Never had acne in my life ... Even as a teenager. Very frustrating

Mine has been awful since surgery. I use proactiv and never had bumps. After surgery I am broke out regardless of what I use.

Braking out a little??? I wish, I have always had a few pimples going on but now I am a war zone, they itch and never come to a head, just liquid in them, I know this is disgusting but what can I say??? Any suggestions? I heard somewhere that as my fat cells are shrinking, their are hormones in the fat cells and everything gets messed up???

I'm 7 weeks out and started getting acne all over my face last week. Its bad especially around my chin. That's weird that this happens. Glad I found that I'm not the only one.

Me too, my whole neck is groady. Losing my hair and breaking out, it's chemo all over again.

My skin has improved, I bought some Retinol Cream and dried those pimples up in just a few days, otherwise they were there for two weeks.

Where do you get Retinol from?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
