Is it ok to stop Accutane at 4 months?

jkozykoz
My skin is perfectly clear at this point and i'm mostly just focused on spotting on my back.I've been taking 20mg for 1 month,40 for 2,and 80 for 1 month.I'm 5'0 and 103 pounds with mostly just cystic acne on my back from time to time... but other than that i just get blackheads and bumps from facial hair. Anyways my skin is clear right now but i wonder if when i stop because its 2 months early will my skin just go back to the way it was?
