konaworld 0 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Hi guys, I have a real skin issue...I am on accutane since october 13 and I was wondering if anyone else experience this : whenever i touch my skin (even just a lil poke) a red "circle" appear all around that area...If i touch somewhere (particular on my forehead) in my face it becomes red at that place...the reddish color goes away like 30 minutes-1 hour later. I hate my skin..do I have a skin disease ? anyone else experience this?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vintage Modernity 0 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I'm sorry I don't know what's causing your skin to do that. I've been on accutane for more then 4 months now. t Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrsZ 2 Share Posted March 21, 2007 I started Accutane in October too. Recently, I have gotten marks like that and I have scratched my face to relieve an itch and the mark was left.I believe that this is due to the fact that Accutane thins the skin. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe that this is due to the fact that Accutane thins the skin. yea its bc it thins your skin so the blood vessels and such are closer to the surface...making it red when you poke it.
