Not Telling
This is one side of my face about two months in, with makeup on. I was too ashamed to take any photos without makeup.
This is when I'd just finished my course. I am ridiculously happy to have normal skin for the first time in years!

I completed a 5 month course of accutane and my skin is now wonderful. It was a horribly tough journey but if it came down to it I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

This is my face now- tiniest bit of BB cream on for a little redness but you'd hardly be able to tell. Thank you accutane for giving me my life back!

Sorry for double posting, just thought I'd upload some pictures to show what's going on at this point in time as I don't like to keep personal stuff on my laptop for long incase my friends or boyfriend see them:
Obviously I have makeup on in these pictures, in reality it looks a lot worse

DAY 52
Skin has had a little breakout around my cheeks near my T zone- though it looks vile, I'm seeing it as progress as that area has been quite bumpy for months so hopefully it's shifting now! Though my skin isn't looking great with all the hyperpigmentation and little spots and stuff I can say it's improving. I'm really really hoping it'll look better before uni though. Another thing to throw into the equation is 3 bug bites on my forehead I got a few days ago that make it look even worse! Definitely staying indoors for the next week.
Side effects wise its pretty much the same, I find myself flushing very easily when I'm nervous or embarrassed (usually when driving!) and back when the evenings were hot I found myself waking up in bed sweating and overheating. Sometimes I feel my heart speeding up but I don't think it's anything serious
My second checkup with the dermatologist brought up the same issue of something rising in my liver continuing to rise. He asked me if I'd been drinking- and I haven't!- so my dosage hasn't been increased. I'm just really hoping it evens out so I can carry on taking the medication
