Hi, so i have finally after many years of stress with my skin been given to roaccutane to take. If you would like to see poictures of my skin at its worst around 8 months ago then feel free to view my oldest posts.
I am on Day 4 of taking roaccutane, so far i have seen no changes at all, not even any dry lips which i heard were usually the first sign, im kinda waiting for things to change as then i know the pill is doing something, even if it is causing me dry skin.
Ill attach pictures of my skin below, its very oily, how long do people usually take to see a reduction in sebum production from this pill? Also see around my nose will the accutance sort the skin out there and make the pores close?
Thanks
From the pictures my skin doesnt look nearly as oily as it normally is, yes i haave a few breakouts and also a cyst on the back of my neck 🙁

You seem to have almost exactly the same severity acne I have. I'm on day 9 and i started experiencing truly dry skin around day 6, but I know for some people it happens a lot later

That cyst on the back of your neck looks painful! I dont think Ive ever gotten one there. :(

Day 11: Cysts have gone down
had a small IB over the weekend but nothing too serious.
Havent felt many side effects so far apart from the dry lips and little bit of dry skin around my mouth

Sorry havent updated in a few days, no major changes, so didnt feel the need to.
