Month 3, week 2 on 60mg accutane I currently have 1 pimple in between my eyebrows and that is it !!! I cant remember the last time my skin was this clear, i'm so happy! I have no blackheads either and I've had blackheads always since i was about 12 years old! Its so nice to feel no bumps, cysts or have anything bleeding on my face....

Start of month 3  My dermatologist upped my dose from 30mg to 60mg because im still getting some outbreaks, nothing major but still. I'm kinda worried this dose will be too much for me because i only weigh 50kg but im so desperate for perfect skin, clear of acne! Still a lot of PIH all over my face but i feel its fading. Here's a photo update (p...

Still continually breaking out. My skin is better than it was before starting accutane but i'm STILL getting pimples. Before accutane, the only area I had pimples was around my jawline, lower face, but since starting accutane my jawline is completely clear and now my cheeks are the main area where I break out. The pimples fade within a few days, dry...

My skin seems to be a lot better right now. I currently have 2 active pimples, no cysts and my blackheads seem to be fading!My skin hasn't been this clear in months... hope it continues to get better!

I have been on Accutane for 1 month now. I went to see my dermatologist today for my monthly checkup. My bloods were all fine, im not pregnant and i was hoping he was going to up my dose from 30mg. He didnt up my dose because he said im petite (which i dont think i am) so he wanted to wait till the end of month 2 to up the dose if there has been no change...

I've decided to post some photos of my skin without makeup again next week because that will be the end of my first month! :)My skin isn't clear yet and i'm still getting pimples but they seem to dry out and drop off within a few days if i leave them alone Jawline is clearer apart from maybe 4 pimples, the initial breakout on my cheeks seems to be fa...

Side effects so far: dry lipsskin slightly dry around the top of my nose, side of nose and corners of eyesSlight nasal bleeding when I blow my noseItchy skin. I'm not sure if this is a side effect because I normally get an itchy scalp and skin when i get stressed, I have my...

I am currently taking 30mg of accutane daily for this month. My acne is pretty much looking the same... maybe a tiny bit less inflamed but defiantly still there, but its only been 7 days so i cant complain. Old pimples seem to be coming back to haunt me though.   Side effects: - Headache for the first few days which was really bad Friday ni...
