So I've completed 50 days on 30mg/day on isotretinoin, and in the first few weeks I did not have a major Initial Breakout, just a few spots here and there. Side effects are not bad, just dry lips and my face seemed to get drier in the past few days.

However in the past week (Week 7) I got a massive breakout around my eyebrows (a place a rarely break out at) and on my right cheek. Is this normal? Is it a sign that the drug is working or its just a simple bad breakout that I've been usually getting once or twice a month?

Totally normal to have a breakout around 2 - 3 months!! I'm not there yet, but I've read a lot of blogs and watched a lot of youtube videos! 🙂
