Just a simple post to gain a bit of perspective about two of the most effective treatmens: The regimen and accutane. WHICH HELPED YOU MORE? This means replies should preferably from people who have tried both treatments but it doesn't really matter. Thanks. Been on both, Started out with Dan's Regmin for 4 months. Got me about 50% clear and seemed that's all it wanted to give. So I said, it's time for more improvement. Went on Accutane, I have 0 active pimples, just red marks left over from previous acne. Been on accutane for 2 months now. Doing 5 months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Are you experiencing any of these dreaded side effects everybody are always on about? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
strato 1 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I've been one Dan's regimen for 3 months. I broke out recently so that was it for me, accutane is next. You should check out the accutane logs board. Most of the people have been on BP. I plan on doing them both together. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Have you ever been on accutane before, I've never even mentioned it to my doctor but I'm seeing him this Tuesday to discuss the possibilty. I've read through a lot of success stories for accutane and it worked for my brother incredibly well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simon L. 0 Share Posted December 5, 2009 Accutane is the last resort. Never forget this. If accutane doesn't help you there won't be any other medicaments to continue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Since it didn't work out that well, I'm going to try accutane. I knew from the beginning that accutane was the last resort... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Me too, and that's exactly what i'll say to my dermotologist, they can't argue with that. Hopefully! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
