Can I take a second round of Accutane for small red bumps (1-3 everyday) and intense oily skin?

accutane can be used more than once but I also suggest facials, genesis and clear and brilliant during that time to ensure you dont have to use it again. also at home microrollign and peels like cosmelan/enlighten should be used now at home. see link to emeragecomsetics.com where we do free skincare consults daily and offer the peels and rollers now to be sent tot your home.
Acne requires a combination approach to get long term improvement.  For all patients on isotretinoin, we require them to be on skin care such as vitamin C, glycolic cream, kojic acid serums in the morning and retinols and salicylic acid at night.   All of our patients get clear+brilliant non ablative laser along with a microsecond YAG laser such as aerolase or laser genesis and microneedling with PRP or microneelding RF like intensif or fractora monthly to help improve breakouts, speed the healing process, and improve scarring and facial redness while on the isotretinoin/accutane.  LED light therapy, cosmelan/enlighten peels, salt facial or dermalinfusion can be done as well to speed up the improvement. I sugges tyou go to an expert who combines skin care, lasers, microneedling, PRP, and facials while on oral medications for acne.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question.Another course of Accutane might be beneficial, but unfortunately, acne may still recur. In some cases, a topical antibiotic and retinoid may be used for maintenance therapy after Accutane. I highly recommend you consult with a board certified dermatologist to have your skin evaluated and to discuss appropriate treatment options. Take care and good luck.
