start of month 5
Hey all, my skin in slowly getting better. I've got a lot less comedones, the majority of them have turned into pimples before going away. I'm still on 20mg a day. I have one persistent cyst or bump under my skin on my cheek for over a month. I did not have it before I started accutane, it was injected at my derms office, went down for three weeks then popped back up. I hope the accutane kills it off as I'm worried that it's something that has to be cut out. Has anyone experienced these dormant cysts that stick around for ages, if so did the shrink or come to a head on accutane?
makeup tips???
I'm starting to get large pus filled whiteheads and resisting the urge to squeeze them because I'm paranoid of scarring. They look so disgusting, i have 4 on my face now. Does anyone have any good advice on how to cover them? I'm so annoyed it just doesn't seem like accutane dries them out quickly enough, they sit on my face for days :(
month 4- feeling so down
I have been on accutane for 4 months now. Currently I have 4 pimples on my left cheek that were previously comedones and probably about 30 comedones on that cheek too. My right cheek is almost clear. It's so annoying
I hate my left cheek it's horrible, i hate having acne it has literally made me a different person
I barely go out now, I have such low self esteem. I know people have worst problems and acne is not permanent but it has really affected me. I wake up with anxiety, I can't sleep properly, i cry everyday, i hide in my room a lot. I wish i could get over it but it's so hard :( i just want this to be over soon
