Hi, I'm a 33 yr old male who has struggled with moderate to severe acne since I was 14.

finally decided to take the plunge and start roaccutane(I'm in the UK). Started last Friday so only a few days in and my face is becoming pretty red.

It looks like a bit is surnburn but I've not really been outside for longer than about 10 mins since Friday. Using a acne.org moisturiser.

Have other people had this? And can I expect it to last the whole course?

im on 30mg p/day

Nearly a month in and still having issues with constant red face...really starting to bothering me and the thought of a few more months like this is depressing

anyone else currently on accutane having the same problem?

my face has been a bit red too, I have rosacea as well, so I always look a bit flushed, but I seem to have a panel of redness (like sunburn) going down the centre of my face. I just take it for what it is... I know that in a few months It will be gone. Chin up!
