It can be anything... Not enough water, hormonal, or even food allergies...

Too many chemicals in food always show as  irritation on my face.  Artificial colors and glabrous are the worst for me...

I noticed this along with crazy emotions when I was in my early post op phase and when you lose weight after wls it releases the estrogen that's been stored in the fat. Good news is that it will more than likely improve once things slow down unless it's due to a different reason.

I am 5 months out and noticed the same thing!  And I am in my 50's!!! Yet, I am getting pimples like a teenager.  I never connected it with the surgery, but maybe?  I'm eating healthier than I ever have, so I don't understand it either??
