Asked By:ashkay4 in Abbotsbury, 02

Hi, I'm 13 days post op - rhinoplasty, septoplasty and reduction of turbinates and had my cast removed a week ago - three days ago I developed a rash and tiny pimples literally all over my face, worst being the forehead - it itches slightly and my skin does feel dry in certain areas although I'm so confused - is this a severe acne breakout or some type of allergic reaction and is this possible nearly 2 weeks after surgery ?
