I am a 27 years old unmarried female with genetic acne. Have tried almost everything from smoothbeam laser to antibiotics and topical medicines. But acne keeps on coming back. Even tried adlactone A to control hormonal acne. But, no use. I also have a tendency to develop bumps, irritated acne after wax. What can be done to combat this? Will accutane help with after wax bumps once i am off the course?
Diagnosed with Pyoderma Faciale in 2015, was put on Accutane for a year (I took my max.) It calmed my face down from when I initially came in but by 2016 my acne bumps were not cleared and still are not to this day. I have flares to where they get worst than the picture, but this is what it normally is. Bumps all over my face, very dry, very sensitive (I can only use products with natural ingredients.) Face is sometimes itchy and sometimes get eyelash dandruff (?). I can not see a derm.
I have keratosis pilaris pretty much all over my body, face included. Over the last few years I developed skin irregularities presenting themselves in little raised bumps. May not be related to KP. Havent found a doctor that knows, so I am trying my luck here. Any treatment reccomendations welcome
One course of accutane has been completed but my acne coming back. I was on Accutane for 9 months, results were perfect but 3 months later I started getting tiny bumps on my forehead so I was prescribed Differin. My skin is still progressively getting worse where I have spots all over my face and neck and I've been patient and waited 3 months to see if the cream will work. I feel heartbroken as I thought it was the end of my 14 year acne journey. Do you think I can get re-referred to a dermatologist?
Male, 20, 121lbs, 5'11, . Been off accutane for around 2 weeks now and starting to get under-skin bumps around the hairline. Should I start taking accutane again? How long should the treatment last for me and is there a waiting time between short accutane courses or should I continue asap? Would a higher dosage be more suitable for me? Maybe moving on to 20mg?
