Why did dermaplaning and a peel make my pores bigger and what can I do to bring my skin back to normal?

I have acne prone skin and recently had dermaplaning and an alphahydroxy peel at a resort spa. Instead of reducing my poor size and improving my acne, it made it worse. My pores look huge and I'm so shiny even after 5 days. I'm 42 and tend to get acne in my T zone. What can I use to calm my skin. She said I could go back to using my triacneal (retinal product) 3 days later. I think that made it worse. Such a bummer. $300 down the tube!
