How can I find a derm who prescribes low dose Accutane?

Asked By:A.quinn

I've struggled with acne for most of my life. I did my first round of accutane at 14 & stayed pretty clear until my 20s.(25 now) I get acne from my face all the way down to my butt, down my arms & the tops of my thighs & while it doesn't get as severe as usual accutane patients, it's stubborn. I think a low dose of accutane would get it under control because NOTHING else has worked. How do I find a derm who prescribes low dose accutane? Should I ask when calling for an appointment?
