I can see why you look so happy! Congratulations on being acne-free!
Your skin looks amazing! So happy for you. I am starting birth control hopefully sometime soon.. I’ve always had irregular periods so I’m not sure when I will get it. I was advised to start poll first day of my cycle. I suspected pcos bc of cystic hormonal acne and irregular periods but ultra sound and bloodwork shows that it is negative. My acne cysts aren’t as severe but they are peristent covering my lower face. What were your side affects? I’m afraid to start accutane.

Thank you,
Tiana
Hey, how long until it started to improve and what dose were you on?
Congratulations! You look amazing!

When I got off of birth control after 5 years, my acne flared up like never before! I have always struggled with hormonal acne, but when I was diagnosed with PCOS it grew worse and worse to the point of not being able to look in the mirror. Accutane scared me, but after several natural remedies and antibiotics it was my only option left! I am so glad that I did it. Of course it came at the cost of several unwanted side effects, but in the end being able to look in the mirror and smile makes it all worth it.

U should take the result photo with the same angle. Seems kinda fake to me.
It's obvious that the photos are not fake. Results are beyond amazing, so I get it if you just can't believe what the medicine was able to do. But here's more photos from different angles.
lol, haters gonna hate haha
why are you so skeptical??
congrats, you look great!!
Hey how old are you. What were youe side effects on accutane? Did you loose your hair?
How did you not have any scarring?! What did you do to prevent that?
What dosage of accutane did you take? How did get rid of acne marks so quickly?
