So i am not sure if this has already been done.. but I always see people asking when accutane started to clear other peoples faces. (I am also one of those people who are curious)
So i thought I would start a simple thread that people can easily look at when others started to clear Answer the following questions in a post. 1)How long was your course 2)How bad was your acne?.. scale 1-10 3)When did accutane START clearing? (Stopped getting acne) 4)When did your skin get completely clear? (No new acne and old acne had healed) Any other information would be great also. |

1) 6 months 2) 4 3) third month 4) around month 5
other info: first 2 months were pure hell but you got to stick with it , third month is where I started to see some nice improvements , and the last months are when you're the most happy because everything is getting better and better. |

Roaccutane 60mg daily from 05-06-09. Progress: (Day 33) I had no IB with 30mg, but when my dose was upped to 60mg I had an awful breakout. In fact I still am. (Day 100) I'm getting there, long way to go, but working on it. QUOTE We should keep an open mind, but not so open as to allow everything to fall out. - Richard Dawkins
