Large Pores After Fraxel?

Nicinca
6 weeks after my last of 4 treatments, my face looks terrible. I am breaking out with deep acne and have larger more congested ores on my nose and cheeks. Can I do anything to help this? I was using retin a per my doctor but seemed to make it worse. I have very light skin and blond hair with acne and large pores before this... Any suggestions?
