niki55 0 Share Posted January 20, 2007 hello! i finished my accutane about 1 month ago- i was on 60mg a day for 4 months. The acne has cleared but i am still left with scars and redness, but the worst thing is the oil my face is producing! it has gone crazy! I hate it so much, after about half an hour of washing my face, my skin looks wet from the oiliness. My hair is very greasy too, i have to wash it everyday again. I am still taking the contraceptive pill Dianette too. My question is, is there anything that can REALLY help with the extreme oiliness? i have tried products like face washes and creams before but none have worked. Please, Please help!

Katsumi 0 Share Posted January 20, 2007 That's odd... I thought Accutane was supposed to shrink your pores, therefore reducing oil production.The scars and redness are still going to be there, you'll most likely have to do laser or skin smoothing treatments to deal with that. It's what I plan to do once I finish my treatment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
