new on skincare board, and would like some advice on my skincare regimen ++

I suffered from hormonal cystic acne and a LOT of clogs for about a year. i started using BP in the morning and 0.025% retin-A at night for the last three months and my skin has finally cleared. i have no more clogs and haven't had a breakout in the last month.. i am wondering ... if i stop using retin-A ... would all the acne come back? in general, i feel like i'm using a lot of products (AHA, BP, clindamycin, retin-A). below is my current regimen, is there something i should take out, or alternate days with? i'm hoping to simplify my skincare routine and still keep my skin clear.

also... i have no more breakouts .. but i still have alot of hyperpigmentation around my jawline due to old breakouts
