I'm 20, this is the second time I'm taking accutane. I took it first when I was 17 for 6 months 30g dosage. It worked great for a while.. Now I'm taking it again, 40g dosage. And from the start I didn't feel a change I mean my face was clearing up a bit even before the accutane coz I used so many things on it, a cleanser and all that stuff from obagi. And now it's been 3 months my face didn't dry up at all and I'm breaking out like crazy and i think they are leaving scars and I feel like crying.
