2nd month on Accutane 40mg per day
I'm starting my 3rd month on monday June 8, and during this entire 2nd month on accutane, I have experienced dry lips, dry face, tiredness, dry eyes, and some thinning hair?? Idk if is my imagination, but i see myself with less hair.... I'm going to upload pictures for each week, for this 2nd month. I had nodular cyst acne on both of my cheeks :( , which left me with hyper-pigmentation. I'm using skinceuticals phyto for the hyper-pigmentation. I'm seeing more scars due to old acne, and have my right eye red. I can't say that I'm seeing improvements, but I need to control my acne first, before doing any acne treatment for scars, sun damage, and hyper-pigmentation. I'm hoping to be done with the treatment already, it's really unconfortable to be putting lip balm any 5 or 10 minutes.
Almost a month on accutane
This is a quick update,
Most of my face is getting better, except my left cheek, when i usually don't breakout or get any pimples at all (see picture). I tried picking on them, but didn't help. Its been a week since i dont get pimples anywhere else just my cheek. Idk if this a good sign or not. I mean i know your pores are changing, and some areas improve faster than others?

3rd Week!
Its really hard for me to do my review from my phone, but here it is.
11 days - 40 mg per day
7 days - no medicine, because i was sick.
7 days - 40 mg every other day.
2 days so far with 40 mg every day again.
Today i woke up and see my face different, is hurting, I guess because its super dry, i see that is getting red, i see wrinkles,.. my derm advised me to do salycilic peels and clear and brilliant, for better results.(Thinking about doing those)
This is what i'm using:
. Cerave moisturizer lotion
. Jan marini sunscreen 33
. Jan marini cleanser
. Dr. Dans cortibalm for my dry lips
. Systane for my dry eyes.
