Hi all! After 6 months of treatment My skin is really clear. I have been done since Sept.6 and shortly after stopping I noticed some deep wrinkles on my chin. I thought maybe it was just due to my skin being so dry. However, they are still there and very noticeable especially when I smile. I will going in to see my doctor in march to talk about some sort of scar treatment.
I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem after Accutane and if so was there anything that helped?

thank you so much for this. I started having cystic acne at age 21. its been a nightmare. i will be starting accutane 40mg tomorrow. my doctor also started me on prednisone 20 daily for 2weeks to help with inflammation. I really pray it works for me. It would be a dream to be able to go out or go to work or even go to the gymn without makeup. i hope your skin remains clear and beautiful.

Wow, WOW, wow, and then WOW again - your skin look so clear in the most recent full face pictures!! That is amazing. Hoping things stay that way and you are able to finish up on the reduced dosage.

i actually have a funny story: the other day when i was washing my face i could feel a one or two pimples and freaked out.i mean they couldn't even be seen and here i was praying that they did not surface, crazy right? well i have had to endure such awful breakouts for whar has felt like my entire life it's not something i hope to experience again.. She actually lower my dosage back to 40mg a day because my skin has cleared up so well and so quickly. i haven't wore any makeup other than eye liner/shadow or lipstick since beginning my treatment and my friends and family are always asking what type of makeup i'm wearing. I just wanted to give my skin a break and it just looks so healthy and glowy now. I began my treatment with 40 mg second month two 40 a day and now back at 40 mg I thought i was on my fourth month already. I can't wait to be done yet i'm afraid to stop taking them. side effects: i still haven't really had any major problems(fingers crossed).my skin get a little dry but not like skin peeling,i need lotion NOW dry. just barely noticeable to me and not at all to others.The last few days my eyes have been bothering me a bit. bUt otherwise all is well. Thanks for reading my story!!! going to try to upload befor pics again.
