Its never going to heal, never, never. I took accutane and got 4 sessions of dermapen to remove all acne scarring so my skin would be perfect. Now while I don't have acne. I have skin that looks stripped. Its looks like I have permanent makeup on my face and I'm a dude. People cant even look at me without laughing. This on top of the dry lips from accutane means my lips are always puckered because they get dry and there's nothing I can do about it. Nope chap stick doesn't work. This has ruined my life. Atleast when I had acne and scars I looked manly. This has ruined my life. My skin doesn't retain moisture. I completely stopped washing to get my skin barrier back but it won't heal. Went 22 days without washing nothing. No dead skin mask nothing. My skin will NOT heal. It won't heal. It stays the same--stripped. Vaseline and neosporin help but I can't (well I could) go out with that every day on my face for 2 months while I let it heal because then people laugh bc its shiny. Its a losing battle. I cant leave the house or do anything bc my skin won't heal and it always looks like I have makeup on but I'm a man!!! All because of accutane stripping the moisture. I regret it so much.
Skin looks stripped like this and I think its bc of the accutane. Has no moisture. Doesn't look like normal skin anymore. Idk
Those were two celebrities I notice that have similar problem via noticing it on TV. Sometimes you can tell whose been on accutane bc face gets red with any action. Sneeze, red. Move too fast, red. Lift up arm, red.
And it results from a broken stripped skin barrier. So I'm tryna build it up but its not rebuilding. The dead skin mask everyone talks about is not forming on my face when I leave my face untouched with even water and steam.
And Ive tried different ways to rebuild skin barrier but nothing works. I'll be good for 10 minutes in the morning then it'll go back to looking stripped of all moisture.
Thanks guys. I'm never going to have normal skin again. Skin will always looks stripped of moisture for the rest of my life. Why is nobody understanding what tf I'm saying. Its not that hard to understand. You know how when skin is healthy and moisurized you can look closely at it and there will be tiny bumps across the face. My face doesn't have that but in two small areas of the forehead. How can I get my skin barrier to rebuild!!! It won't rebuild!!! Not touching it with water is key but its been 2 months and still no progress!!!! How damaged was it that 2 months of not washing STILL WONT STABALIZE THE SKIN!!!! WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!
