Acne may occur during pregnancy in association with indigestion problem, mental stress, oily skin, constipation etc. Here, you need to clean facial skin with cleanser regularly, keep bowel habit regular, avoid stress/ anxiety, drink more water and take sound sleep.
In addition, you can use some cream/ lotion like clindamycin/ benzoyl peroxide to get relief from pimples. Please consult with your doctor for proper prescription after clinical examination.
