I have heard the skin can get worse before better, here is an FAQ that speaks to that. Have you followed up with your doctor?

Accutane worked

shanie
Now it has been a month since my accutane treatment is done. yes it actually worked for me. now I'm not getting any breakouts . skin is dry with some marks. and I'm working on it with Nustrata pigmentation controller.
so finally I would like to say YES to all who are suffering from severe acne to get Accutane .

by the way you may have to avoid sun exposure during the treatment and after that for sometime. coz it's high sensitivity to sun.
