It eventually goes away.  Maybe a year?

In Topic: breakout because I switch from antibiotics to tane??

I agree with you.  I really don't think people experience IB (hate to call it "initial breakout" since we are already broken out which is why we are on accutane) but rather a rebound from no antibiotics.  I had gone off antibiotics quite a while before I started accutane so I was already breaking out when I started my course.  My acne got progressively better instead of worse then better.

I'm curious, though, if there are people out there who experienced a worsening of their acne (IB?) and never took antibiotics.

Here is a photo of it guys. If its a bruise shouldnt hurt when i put pressure on it? I am so concerned. Plus I had my blood drawn 4 days ago. Do bruises show up after a couple of days? It doesnt hurt. I am so scared.



Those bruises typically don't hurt. It's really just blood gathered up under the skin.

I've had some pretty ugly ones. They turn a different color every day. You might even see green in a few days.

Hope this helps,

Very helpful post.  There are a lot of people out there who get through accutane just fine.... we just don't hear about them.  The negative stuff is easier to find.  

Continued good luck with your clear skin,
