Can I restart accutane after being off it for 4 months?

Asked By:Waad97653 in United Kingdom, GB

I was on accutane for 5.5 months. I was supposed to be on it for 7 months but stopped because my hair was starting to fall out. My acne at that point had cleared up but I was left with a lot of scarring. Fast forward three months after that, a few pimples show here and there, face oily as ever and scarring becoming way more evident. It's as though my skin is telling me beware: acne coming through soon. would it be wise to go back on accutane? I wouldn't mind the side effects at all at this point
