Ever since I was 10, I've had acne, which 10 seems like a young age but it happened. In middle school, it got worse (one reason was bc I didn't really have a skin care routine). But in high school, it absolutely EXPLODED. Zits covered every square inch of my face (my forehead didn't really break out tho). So I was prescribed Minocycline and Birth Control & I used a Clinque skin care line, which all 3 helped get my acne minimal for about half a year or so. Then, it came back!!! So I switched out my skin care stuff for a prescribed face wash and a prescribed Clinamycin BP spot treatment. Those worked for about a month and then my acne came back again!! I've been off the Minocyclune for about 3 weeks but it didn't make my face worse or better. And in the past, I've tried EVERY thing possible: retinols, BP, salicyic acid, AHAs, charcoal washes, EpiDuo, Proactiv, washing my face with natural products, drinking lots of water (girl, i drink 8-9 water bottles a DAY), exercise regularly, you NAME it and i've tried it. So my new dermatologist told me I should get on accutane. my acne is mild / moderate, EXTREMELY prone to breakouts (even when I don't wear makeup for a week), and it's persistent in the same spot (usually around my chin area). Do you think i should go for ACcutane?? (I'm 17 btw so I've hadacne for 7+ years now)
