Hi ! I'm a 17 yo teenager , my last 3 years of life were horrible , I will try to explain in this post different things , I will talk from my experience . Sorry if my english grammar is bad , I'm still in the learning process , and I hope u guys will be able to understand me . I already tried to post this 2 times but I lost all the content because one time my pc restarted and another time I closed all my apps from the phone accidentally ...fml
Ok so , everything started when I was 10 yo with forehead acne , at 14 things got worse then acne spread all over the face . And like every teenager I go to derm which gave me a lot of shitty creams and treatments . Since 14 I changed 3-4 derms ... Almost all of them knew nothing about acne , if u want to treat your acne properly you need to find one of the best derm from your country ( yes , I'm not joking because most of derms ~50-60% don't know shi.t about acne and A LOT of them don't give a fuuuuu*k about you and they will treat ur acne with superficiality )I remember something very well: my first derm look into my eyes and he told me : don't worry , everything will be fine and I will treat ur acne ........No shit Sherlock ?..My second derm was a lady around ~60 yo ,the worst derm I could ever probably find , I asked her for Accutane and she told me Noooo I can't prescribe accutane because I don't like it and I will try smth else , and your scars will get better with time( that's the biggest lie a derm can tell u) The main reason of my post is accutane because I was 100% sure I need it , I tried all the shitty treatments creams pills for no reason , nothing worked and now I'm left with a lot of scars . Don't repeat my mistakes please , I suffered a lot and I am in horrible pain , the mental pain due to scars is beyond description ,I'm crying while writing this because I don't have any idea what should I do more , I hope I will be able to start accutane in september .. I just finished a 3 months doxy course and everything is a lot worse than before . This is my treatments history : zynerit ,skinoren,tetracycline,metronidasol,a mixture from pharmacy,isotrexin,duac,zinc,a lot of vitamins +other useless cream ,doxy .Now I'm in my 2nd month with Acnatac(0.25% tretinoin +clyndamicin). I should never start to use it , The initial breakout was soo bad , Now I'm left with scarring in places where I used to be clear for years .....Please take accutane , don't repeat my mistakes , save your future , save your life!

if you want accutane and have no real health reasons why you shouldn't take it( and are aware of the risks) go to another derm or Dr. It should ultimately be your choice.
