ok well update...

 

about 1 week ago... my skin went so dryy face hurt. my face hasnt been dry for the entire 6 months and BAMMMMMM my face hurt just to put wter on it. i could tell my body was telling me THATS ENOUGH. so even though i had 1 month left...... i stopped. i might complete it in a few weeks but my body needed a break. my skin is clear ... all side effects decreased immediately. except my hair is still super dry... i just knew i had to stop. if i have to go on accutane again id do it.... it works...but if my acne comes back not as severe.. i wont do it again. but for it to get rid of all my cistic acne wow MIRACLE

Im glad u have no more cystic acne tho ! Its a pain having to deal with every single daily breakout. How bout b. Pills are u still taking them ? And my other question is when u were on depo did u still get your periods or were they abnormal? And for your whole accutane course did u stay same dosage thru all of it ? And its good u stop most def. Listen to what your body is tellin you . Im still pretty pissed off bout depo shot lol seriously never wuld have gotten acne cus of that shit! Sorry for the cursing just letting my fustration out lol

I stopped birth control pills around a month ago and just finished my period!!!!! so hopefully that means depo is OUTTTTTTTTT! still no breakouts :) during depo i think i got my period but it wasnt normal.. dw my biggest regret is doing depo..

Hey everyone,

So I finally went to a new derm today and she upped my accutane dose and told me not to take those antibiotics. I will now be taking 40mg per day instead of the 20. I'm bracing myself because I know I'm going to be breaking out like crazy for a while again (sigh). I'm still pretty bad on my face too and I've been on 20mg for eight weeks today and will start my ninth week tomorrow. SO I understand how everyone is feeling.

OH and this is my second try at accutane so I will say to y'all that YES the oil does come back. You'll feel it more on your hair than your face. So unfortunately its a temporary things that you're experiencing now. Sorry to burst your buttons.

Blabla05, you might want to ask your derm to give you something that will help with the acne marks. Something that'll help them fade. That's what this new derm of mine did. Its very mild and she recommends it. I'm not sure if you'll have it where you are but its called hyseac A.I. Its from France. It's a bit pricey but I got it because I really want this stuff off of my face. But I don't think it'll hurt to ask. Also, remember accutane does take a while and what it's effective for is getting rid of and preventing future acne. The marks that you see that aren't really pimples are something that is part of the process. But think about it, its better than an infected pimple, right?!

I agree with BMarieWantsNoAcne that you really need to try not to focus too much in the mirror. I'm trying my hardest to stick with that, and its a challenge, but at the end of the day it makes me feel less stressed out on how my face looks.

Brownilocks, how's your acne coming along? Any improvement besides no oily face?

I hope this new dosage helps kick this stuff off my face! Fingers crossed!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!

hey...jxt rili want to know..did d hyseac A.I fade d marks??i just got it recently, and i jxt rili want 2 know if i should get my hopes up or noteusa_pray.gif ..my entire face is pretty much cmpletely covered with spots or hyperpigmentation or wateva.
