Week 11-Day 4

Almost 3 month to accutane. But got three bumps still not flatten. Wonder is it due to my low dosage? My derm nv seem to consider to increase my dosage thou. I will be getting my blood test next week. Although things do seem to calm down alot, I just wish that the 3 bumps and my recurring one can be flatten. Posted Image

Now I have alot of red acne scars too. Its v bad becoz it's nt one individual spot but one patch. So sad.. Wnder how long will the scars fades off. Any regimen to help it? I am scare that will cause further breakout thou. Haiz.

My skin was SUPER bad weeks 2 and 3. I am now in week 4 and it has calmed down A LOT! Still broken out but not nearly as bad as I was.

Ohh u really lucky that it calm down so soon. Guess your acne is nt as bad as mine. Posted Image lucky u.
How much is your dosage?

Oh, I should probably really re-phrase...

Week 2 and 3 for me were hell. Like, worst face of my life, never leaving my apartment again, googling, "face transplant"... OK that last one is not true but you get the idea.

Week 4 I began recovering from hell week 2011. I have pictures on my blog if you'd like to see: http://accudani.wordpress.com/

I am on 60mg now but hoping it gets bumped up when I see my derm next week!

Ohh saw ur log. You are recovering it seem. Mine is very low dosage tt y it took me almost ten weeks fr the accutane to kick in and help me recovering. At the same time because of the injection it helps me btr. Bt still it is not completely flatten as I mentioned. Your bumps though quite a bit bt it's not as huge as mine. I can show you picture through email if you want to see. :)

Week 12 day 3

Already 3 months on accutane. Indeed I am getting better. But still two big bumps not completely cure. Going to see my derm tomorrow for blood test and consultation. Perhaps I going to ask for repeated shot on the big monster for the last time. Can feel it is slightly inflammed. It just make my make up hard to cover properly. Went several interviews. Just end up with disappointment. :( really so demoralized. This year is a fking bad year for me. Just wish things would get better. :(

Week 13 day 6.

Been a wk passed again.. No new breakout. But still experience quite a bad dryness. Skin seem to be peeling once every few days. Face feel tight too. Not sure why it feel tight.

The dryness actually make me feel a bit itch too. Any recommendation what to do about it? But overall things are much btr now. Feel so much happier and willing to go out too. Hope things will get even better! Pray hard.
