ACNE go away!!! (Modified Isotretinoin Course))

....that's what my dermatologist said..yes after months and months of using different acne treatments, i finally mustered up all my courage (and money) and consult a doctor.... i was really surprised at how understanding and helpful he was... i'm under his regimen now and let's see what happens.... i forgot to take a picture before but here's how my acne looks like now after a few days....

....about 3 months after my first trip to the dermatologist...... my progress seems to be hanging both ways like a see-saw...up and down, and up and down....
pphhfhfhhffhhff.....
....my skin feels bumpy, and i can also feel some cysts underneath (which hurts and itches...) aaarrgggghhhh. i trimmed my nails way back and i avoid looking at mirrors so i don't get tempted to try and claw at my face.....

.... to visit the doctor again next week..... hoping for the best

it's hella hot here in the Philippines...it's the summertime...... sometimes my face itches like crazy (coz of the heat....so i splash my face with ice cold water and it really helps relieve the itch and prevents me from clawing at my face!)
