Hey guys, I have some questions ! *I'm on a low dose (20-40 mg) and I have been on accutane for about 4-5 months. Didn't have cystic acne but a lot of pimples that left acne marks on my face and back, and they wouldn't go away with any other treatment..
1: Have any of you tried anything that could remove or just reduce red marks/hyperpigmentation while ON accutane?
2: my skin tend to blush up and get red, especially my nose and cheeks which make my acne marks look worse, I have started using a gentle moisturizer without perfume, parabens etc, but my face is still red and blushing when I have applied it, does it fade after a longer time using moisturizer or ?
3: I still have some whiteheads on my right cheeks which wont go away and some blackheads on my nose, and few small pimples on face and back, is this normal that they wont go away after so long? I see people that get such a clean skin without redness, pimples etc. but my face is just red, filled with acne marks etc :/
This pictures is about 2 months old, It's not as bad now, but it gives you an idea how my skin is
Thanks for the answers !
1. I can't remember how many months but about 10 I think and the weather is quite cold here, rainy and cloudy right now but hopefully snow later
2. I can't use BHA/AHA while on accutane, even though I have some, because it will irritate the skin because of accutane Doctors etc. don't recommend it
The moisturizer I use know also contains aloe vera, vitamin e etc.
