Hey how is your treatment going? I've been on accutane for 4 months and still dealing with clogged pores and cysts

It took me five months to stop getting acne, and it diminished all of my clogged pores on my forehead.

However, throughout the course I did still get tiny little bumps, and now I've finished I am getting a couple more clogged pores.

I was on accutane when I had really bad clogged pores (no whiteheads just clogged pores everywhere) and I saw results by the fourth day. It was great. Unfortunately, I think all it did was shut down my overactive oil productive glands. When I stopped accutane, it gradually came back (that was when I was in my early twenties. I'm 28 now). When it comes to oily skin and clogged pores, accutane will not be cure. It will work so long as you use it though.
