i wouldn't say very very well, havent been able to post pics in weeks, but it is better than before i started. My skin cleared initially and then had quite a bad breakout and then cleared again and now is not great but not awful. So its a work in progress xx
day 38- wow its been a long time on accutane now 
lip spots are my current problem, right on my lip, one is healing now (very very slowly) and another bast*** is forming. Hair is a bit thinner than usual and dry x
Day 41- Flipping shattered. Not sure if i'm getting ill. Lips just about bearable if i slather lanolin on of a morning and night. But if i miss a night- dear lord. It is awful. My spots are reasonably bad at the moment. I've got a really bad rash on my hands- has been rough, sore and red for two days. Bought some hydro cortisone for them :/
day 53- caught my period pain in time with hardcore pills and it wasnt too bad 
skin not great, not terrible. Having some bizarre skin episodes, like when i kissed someone the other day and half my chin scraped off. I had a big brown scuff like wound for two days, was horrible.
Had derm appointment today, he has increased me to 30mg. Hope i dont get a major initial breakout x
Day god knows what- there was a major f*** up with my prescription and i had to go without accutane for five weeks. Unbelievable... anyway i just started all over again yesterday. If my derm shortens my treatment due to his mistake and i relapse i'll not be happy 
he already has weird ideas, he says 'whenever your skin has been fairly clear for one month thats when you'll stop accutane'. I really dont think this is right from what i've heard. I feel like relapse is inevitable in my case.
Sorry to hear about your prescription but stay strong girl!! Acne sucks and clear skin is attainable. There are many of us fighting the battle with you. Thanks for all the updates, I'm trying to clear my skin up as well (different regimen but a similar fight). You got it 🙂
After three months: I had trouble logging on here so forgot about it for a good while. I've been on Accutane three months, apparently only have about one month to go which scares me a lot. I feel it is too short but my derm wont have any of it. My acne is muchhhhhh better, but I do still get spots, its not entirely clear, the scars bug me too. The lips bug me most of all, it can be torture sometimes.
I just so desperately hope that it was all worth it. I have this nightmare idea (not really a nightmare because I think it will happen lol) that I will relapse but the GP will think its not quite bad enough for Accutane and i'll be on that horrible chemical ointment route forever and always have dodgy speckled skin it's in God's hands I guess.
But as for the drug itself, i'm chuffed, just wish derms would obey our will more lolol
Apologies that I look possessed in this photo
After three months 1 week: My skin is getting better and better. I accidentally slept in my makeup (due to the tiredness that comes from accutane i'm sure) several nights this week and only got one spot to show for it. It's lush to finally be at this stage, i just pray that it will continue after i stop treatment soon. My lips which were so painful have calmed thanks to tea tree oil in rosehip oil underneath a thick layer of vasline at night. They're not great and i'm excited for normal lips again but i can cope now, less pain. My general skin dryness is improving due to using cold cream as a cleanser and natural moisturising foundation. Using estee lauder double wear just doesn't suit my skin type anymore which is a shame because the coverage is brilliant. Looking forward to reducing my scars with retin a after treatment as they are quite prominent. If i have scarless spotless skin a year from now I will be so grateful. I dont think it will happen somehow, but it is in God's hands.
After three months almost two weeks: I have had about three spots this week. And i'm chuffed about it. It's crazy to touch your cheek in daily life and be touching a normal cheek. Then again Accutane is reaking havoc on my love life. Beards..., they hurt me so much. After seeing someone last night my face has been bright red all day and feels like sunburn. Very inconvenient. I'm excited to sort my scars out when Accutane is finished because my skin texture in certain lights is really bad. Like an unmade road lol. My lips are driving me mental as usual, to the extent that I bought a 19 pound lip balm from Elizabeth arden. It better work!

thankyou my dear. How is your skin doing xx
after four months: I have one current spot. Dead pleased with my skin. Pores seem bigger than usual and noticeable in photos. Lips really bad to the extent that people continually comment. Patience is far shorter than pre accutane. Slightly sleepier too. My rash has finally gone. I will never test out lotions again
after 4 months one week:
My back is really bad. If I bend to wash someone in work, even 5 minutes and I've got shooting pains. Also when I lift anything at the refugee shelter. I went swimming the other day and had to take a paracetemol for the aches. I'm putting off volunteering in Calais refugee camp until after Accutane as I would be so feeble there anyway I have two spots, bad lips, a lot of flushing and scars. I'm trying clarins radiance golden glow boost tonight for the first time to tame my redness, it apparently works like a charm. The continual rashes (only on my hands) are dead irritating too, something will spark it off and then it can be up to 10 days of sore red skin.
4 months two weeks: Back pain and rashes still. Have also had five spots this week which makes me a little nervous about Mondays (potentially final) derm appointment. However if my skin stays like this forever I'll be happy. Can totally handle this level. Just hope it wont worsen.
Had my final appointment today he gave me one more prescription for 50mg because i am having a few spots every week. I am really thankful for that, so i will have been on the treatment a total of 6 months at 25, 25, 35, 50, 50, 50. Chuffed to bits and so hopeful that it remains this clear. Gotta have faith 
5 months: I am spot free which is just brilliant. Anddddd I found something which has cleared my rash!!!! Its called lotil. A cheap dry skin ointment you can get in boots in the eczema section. Will post pics of my instant transformation 
also using Vaseline rosy lips stick which is nice. I think I should have just stuck to consistent Vaseline from the start because my lips are better than usual! Big relief
5 months and half a week: Lips are rubbish again, argghh. My legs recovered from that awful incident, pay my heed- do not do any kind of serious running on Accutane. It will killll you. I am however swimming a good few days a week and while I know i'm aching more than I would, its more than bearable and i'm enjoying it so there you go. I'm all clear and have been that way pretty much for a few days. I saw my face in the mirror after swimming and I couldn't believe that there wasn't a spot to be seen
