I apologize if this has been asked before. I have only been browsing for a few days. I suffered from acne as a teenager and was on Accutane with some less-than-desirable side effects (hair loss and very low poor night vision which didn't improve for 3-4 years). After having my daughter, my acne is back, but is not bad. However, since I'm 26 now, my skin isn't turning over as much and the acne I am getting is scarring.
I saw my derm and they wanted to start me on isotretinoin again. However, the generic version will cost me $342/month with insurance, and I can't afford it. As of right now, ProActiv is keeping the acne at bay, but it's not enough. Has anyone sought the DKR/acne.org regimen as an alternative to Accutane? Obviously nothing is quite like Accutane, but given the side effects I suffered before and the fact that we just can't afford for me to be on Accutane right now, should I give the acne.org regimen a try? Is it worth trying if my only alternative seems to be Accutane? Thanks. |
