WORTH IT$350

Im a 15 year old girl. Girls are always worried about their apperance. I started getting acne in 6th grade. It was so bad. I caked on makeup, but it just made it look worse. I would cry myself to sleep cause I looked so different from the other girls. I went to the dermatologist, and she gave me pills, but they didnt work what so ever. We tried this dermatologist a series of times, but each prescription she gave me made it worse. After I found out about accutane, I started the long process of blood drawing, and birth control. Im now on my six month and could not be more happy with the results. I have not had one zit in months, and it feels great. I have scarring, but its said to go away after 6 months to a year. Im so happy with my skin, I feel like myself again. Im more confident in every way. I reccomend this to EVERYONE. It DOES work. And Im sure you will be amazing by the results. Dont lose hope.

We are thinking about starting my daughter on this due to back acne. Have you have any side effects and if so what are they??

Yes. VERY dry skin on face and horrible chapped lips. I started accutane in winter so my dry skin was worse, but she will have very bad dry skin, and you will need to keep chapstick and face lotion with you at all times! But the dry skin stopped on my fourth month, but I still had chapped lips, and I have been off accutane for a month and my lips are still chapped. I also had dry eyes and a tiny bit of peeling on the finger tips. I wear contacts, so I noticed the dryness a little more due to irritation from my contacts. But the peeling of the finger tips didnt hurt, nor bother me what so ever. I also had back acne, very bad. It was so bad I wore shirts when I was swimming, and accutane got rid of it all! I have no more acne, nor scaring on my back :) She will LOVE it:) It takes a couple months for the medicine to kick in, but starting month 3 you will notice BEAUTIFUL changes:)

My 16 year old son just started taking the medicine 2 days ago. Do you recommend that he use chapstick now before they start chapping? Also what face lotion did you use?

Yes! And even after they start getting bad keep chapstick with you at all times! I kept 2 sticks in my locker, 2 in my backpack, one by my bed, one in the bathroom, I kept it EVERYWHERE. hhaha.
