Taking Accutane for the 3rd Time, only Finished Second Round Two Months Ago, Too Soon?

Some people do require multiple rounds of Accutane use. However, more likely, is that you should have stayed on some kind of long-term regimen to manage your acne long-term. For instance, people with large, cystic, severe acne will usually have great results with Accutane but they can need to take an additional pill or two a week just to keep their skin clear for the long-term. I have many, many patients that do this. They take a full course of Accutane and then we put them on a regimen for long-term maintenance (males only - females require something else because of pregnancy issues). It works well for many patients with more severe acne, but you will need to see your dermatologist consistently during maintenance.
