Yep, they are all red marks.

And in terms of moisturizer, I tend to apply it after a shower to in between my eyebrows and my chin - that's where i get a lot of flakiness these days.

Hey, your skin looks GREAT! eusa_dance.gif I am on Day 12 on mine, and it's peeling like hell but it feels nice haha

Got a question, what kind of fatty foods do you take accutane with?

Day 102




So I'm on my last week and a half of accutane... it's been fantastic...

I have a dermatologist appointment two weeks after finishing - don't know what to expect then.

Just taken some pictures of my back and chest... take a look : )

This drug's saved my ass... I'm so grateful...

I'm going to keep updating on the situation post-tane, and whether or not I need a second course.

Thanks to all of you for supporting me, you're all awesome people : D

I'll update next week and the week after and then when i have the derm appointment - bye for now!!!



Read through your entire log and it made me happy and excited to be on Accutane. You look great! If I'd just seen your most recent pictures of your face, back, and chest, I would not be able to tell that you ever struggled with severe acne. Congratulations, you're a success story =D

Hey everyone, Phoenixbalm here - 6 months later!

Decided I'm going to put a few pictures up of what I look like now.

Came to a realisation about 4 months ago. The acne on my chest started to return, in a very very minor form, but soon discovered it was due to soap/shampoo coming into contact with it. Since then, I haven't put a drop of soap or shampoo on my chest/let any run onto it and I've been 100% clear since!!!

Also, dairy milk causes it on my chin, I found. AND, Tomato ketchup causes minor cysts to appear.

So now I am 100% FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! biggrin.gif:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:biggrin.gif


Photos up in a little bit!!!
