Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Started on Accutane because of extremely oily...
Started on Accutane because of extremely oily skin, and some very large and painful cystic acne due to hormonal changes.
I stopped 2 weeks later. Couldn't handle the side effects. Now 2 months later my skin is still dry (I moisturies twice a day with Effaclar H), but what bothers me is that my skin is super sticky (while damp) and shiny, kind of a waxy look. It is also very thin and fragile and feels numb (like I can't feel the wind on my face like I used to) Have anyone else experienced this and did it ever go away?? Would really appreciate if someone could help me!
