Week 10: Day 65 Pictures

Posted by scguinner in My Accutane Journey, 22 May 2013 · 70 views

I’ve officially broken into month three!I had my dermatologist appointment earlier this week and according to him, I am through the worst of my acne and from this point on, my skin should start to smooth out. The pictures really aren’t that great this week, but I think I am seeing some improvement on my face. I’ve have some breakouts on...

Conundrum

I have altered my regimen a bit since my post from two weeks ago. I found the SkinCeuticals LHA  Solution too harsh for my sensitive skin, so I am sticking with witch hazel toner morning and night. Oddly enough, using just the LHA Cleansing Gel makes my skin feel great and has drastically reduced the blackheads around my nose - I no longer have...

Week 6

Posted by Peaches0042 in From the Inside Out, 22 May 2013 · 308 views

My cruise was amazing and my skin was just as great! I was clear the entire time. However, I do have some slightly scary news. I had dairy on the cruise, every day, and never broke out. I'm reeeally hoping my skin clearing isn't actually the BC finally kicking in because I've completely stopped it now. But now that I'm back home I'm back to my no dai...

Third Week

Posted by justwannabebeautiful in My attempt with OTC , 22 May 2013 · 168 views

So I just finished my third week, dark blue pills, (still 1st pack) and the cyst under my bottom lip isn't hurting anymore and it's decreased in size. I have gotten four pimples on my jaw (three on the right and one on the left), two small pimples on the side of my face (on the left; however now they're going away), and more recently two pimples on my che...

Entry #2: A Long Time Since I Wrote Down Anything

Posted by egreen in egreen's skin log, 21 May 2013 · 387 views

Its been a really long time since I wrote anything in here. My regime has changed a lot. Looking back I think there are a couple things I want to change back to because they worked better for my skin, but they also cost more so I'll need to manage my money before I can do that. Anyways, here is what I use now.  Morning and Evening  Wash face wit...

Accutane 80Mg 23/male

Posted by mtallia in mtallia's Blog, 21 May 2013 · 422 views

Hey guys so I figured I would start a log to learn more throughout this process and figure out some simple do's/don'ts while on Accutane. Just a background on me, I've suffered with acne all my life and it sucks I know. I took Accutane in high school and it somewhat worked but now I got so fed up throughout college with severe chest/back acne and big cyst...

Evidence For Retinoids

retinoid, retin a, adapalene and 5 more...

Recently, I came across some very interesting peer reviewed journal articles that contained good evidence about the effectiveness of topical retinoids. This appealed to me since I am currently using isotrex which is topical form of isotretinoin for my acne. I have been on oral isotretionoin (accutane) as well in the past with great results, so when my acn...

Nearly 1 Month!

Posted by claire297 in my acne story (accutane), 21 May 2013 · 380 views

So I had my doctors appointment today, everything went fine and I've been bumped up to 50 mg, but I don't have enough pills for the amount of days between now and my next appointment (I had to extend my appointment because I'd be on holidays), so I'll have to keep going with just using one 20mg/day for another two weeks, and then I'll have enough to use 2...

Although my blog is devoted chiefly to oily skin and acne, I also deal with seborrheic dermatitis and I like to provide periodic updates regarding my progress on that front as well, in case my experience can help someone else suffering from seb derm. One month ago I started washing the seb derm areas of my face with a sulfur soap called Coral KAVI. I...

Broke out with about 6 new pimples. Big ones. And totally my fault, left my makeup on at night for 2 nights. Hopefully they heal this week. I don't know what i was thinking... But that won't happen again!

Week 7 (Day 42)

Posted by maplesyrupmama in maplesyrupmama's Blog, 21 May 2013 · 280 views

From here on in, I am hoping to have very little to report as it's been 2 weeks since I've had a new spot and my skin appears to be getting clearer by the day.  I have to admit that I am still living in a little bit of fear that that could change any day now.... but for the moment, all is good. http://www.acne.org/...le_emoticons...

Stopping Birth Control Pill

I'm 25 now and I started taking birth control pills back when I was 19 because I would get migraines and terrible cramps, I always had mild to moderate acne (non-cystic) throughout high school which I contribute also to wearing cheap makeup and sweating a lot from sports and not being able to wash it off right away. My gyno tried ortho tri-cyclin first an...

Day 122 Of Accutane!

Posted by ls206816 in Battle with Acne, 20 May 2013 · 333 views

So today I will be starting my 5th month! I went to the dermatologist today and he put my on 80mg now. He told me to take 40mg with breakfast and then TWO 20mg with diner. The reason he is having me take two 20mg is because I I don't tolerate the 80mg I can always go back to 60mg. So I will pick that up at the pharmacy tomorrow and hopefully they will hav...

Week 15: I Dare To Say The Regimen Is Working Out~

I think it's been about 2 weeks as I promised to update about how I'm doing so far (see pics below). I think The Regimen (Daniel Kern's) is working (the 2nd time around, that is---read my first post about this whole "2nd time around" process). What do you think? Most of what I see in the mirror is hyperpigmentation; sadly, I believe it's going t...

Month 2 Of Accutane

Posted by Daja19 in Daja19's Blog, 20 May 2013 · 404 views
accutane experience

As I'm about to begin my third month of Accutane, there has not been a significant change. When I went to the dermatologist a month ago, she said in the third month my skin should break out less to the extent of no new acne forming. As of right now, I have a few breakouts and the scars of old acne is not fading at all even a little bit. I'm hoping this th...

Day 52

Posted by bgh9080 in bgh9080's Accutane Blog, 20 May 2013 · 241 views

Things are OK again - breakouts on my back from last 2 weeks are gone. Have a few spots on my face, but nothing awful. And they're more surface-y spots, not cysts.  Cheeks feel like redness is just fading still. Chest still has one spot, the same one that's been around for like 1.5 weeks.  What I do want to talk about is this process o...
