Do you think Accutane will help me in the long run? Will I be the percentage whose acne comes back when they stop taking it?

Asked By:ashley0900

I am an 18 year old female. I’ve forever suffered from genetic and hormonal acne. I’ve been on birth control, Epiduo, Spironolactone, Aczone, and more. Spironolactone helped, but am no longer on it and my acne improved more off of it. My face stayed ”clear” (as clear as I’m gonna get) for a few weeks and it’s starting to come back. I am starting Accutane in 2 weeks. What do you think my percentage is of Accutane keeping my face clear even after I finish my trial of it?
