I'm in the middle of month 5 of my treatment and I'd have to say that I'm dissappointed with how things are right now. By that I mean that my face looked better last month than it does now. Just as a visual, all active pimples have been gone since month 3 but I was left with POST-ACNE MARKS- the ones that look like dark pigmented red spots. It seems like those marks are more numerous and noticeable now than ever. I don't get it, if i'm not getting any more active pimples, why am I still getting these red marks and more importantly, why are they becoming more noticeable?? Not only that, but my face tends to get really red under certain conditions. For example, it would be red when I get out of the shower and when I'm outside in the cold. The thing is, my face never used to do that until about 3 weeks ago. I was loving accutane sometime during month 2 and all through month 3 and a little bit of month 4, but now I don't know what to think about it. So, if anyone reading this has any idea why this may be or even better if you have experienced this yourself please comment on this post. I only have about one month left on accutane and I'd be really dissappointed if I finish looking the same I did before starting accutane.

my course ends at March 10th.. it means i have one month left which is quite the same
situation..

right now i'm a bit disappointed as well.. i looked better a month ago..

my face is red and the marks left from the active acne still look like acne

so i don't care if it's active or not as long as it's fucking visible!!!!

i'm pretty sure that my course will be up to 8 months long..

but, you and me have to remember one thing..

you can't jude roaccutane while on the treatment!!!

a month or two after completing the course you'll see how many marks and scars are gone and just then judge..

best of lukc dude
