Ok, for starters right now I'm on accutane and this is my 6th and final month. I'm not clear at all, I still break out. BUT, about 10 -12 months ago I was on retin a (the cream) and it practically cleared my up 100 % around the 5 or 6th month mark. To me this makes no sense how a topical pretty much cleared me but accutane didn't even come that close.... Maybe it was because I didn't moisturize? Because my doc told me not to moisturize on accutane, while I did on retin a .I actually miss my oily skin now, I HATE being so dry it sucks.

So I'm thinking on starting up on retin a again, but I'm going to use the micro sense I hear its time released and less irritating plus it doesn't have that ingredient that clogs your pores. I'm almost certain I'll be clear with this since I was when I was on the cream.

I'm wondering has anyone else had a similar experience to mine?

If you were clear from retin-a, why did you take accutane? I am just curious.

hey it could be a fluke since accutane still clears your skin months after your treatment and my skin gets more clear each and every day so idk yet, but im starting retin a micro tomorrow anyways.
