I wouldn't use ANYTHING until you're finished. I'm 5 and a half months in and my red marks are starting to fade..but i doubt anything you do will speed up the healing process of those marks for now. It will happen naturally. But I can empathise...mines are awful.
Oh..and for the love of god keep them out of ANY sunlight.. they darken. A LOT. Keep them covered.

Sunscreen
A high SPF sunscreen.. that should prevent your redmarks from getting darker. I suggest neutrogena sunscreen spf 70.

i know how you feel man, more than anything in the world i just want my redmarks to go away.
especially the ones on my forehead, they look horrible
just remember that they will eventually, you just have to be really patient, but they will go away.
hey as for the retin-a, can you start using it right after the accutane course is done or do you ave to wait 6 months- a year before doing anything like everything else?
