6 months after accutane

WORTH IT
Had a couple tiny Zits that were nothing, so glad I feel so much more confident now. I'm hoping it won't come back

Your skin looks great! I was on accutane for 10 months and my skin cleared up just like yours did. About a year after stopping my acne started coming back. It wasn't as bad, but it was bad. I am now on birth control and acne meds and clear skin again. Hang in there girl!! I hope you maintain that beautiful clear skin.
beautiful

End of month 6

Really dry lips :( other than that no side effects. My doctor decided I go on it longer than 6 months because I started at a low dose.

what was your begin dose? 20mg?
It was weird it was 10 mg the first week then 20 mg for a month and then it went to 30 for 2 months rest have been 60 mg
You look fantastic! I'm glad you found something that works for you! I wish you continued success!
interning my Doc starting me on 20mg and I noticed immediately it was working and now by month 4 end. I only have 2 months left and I seemed to hit a stand still in progression. I wonder if I need a higher dose for the last two months :) thanks your info with dosage was very helpful!
