yes! i am a female and i have noticed this too! mainly just in the begining months of it.

im on my 2nd course of accutane. i took it about 3 years ago. and my acne is not bad but not going away so my derm put me back on it.

i didnt notice it the first time, but this time i did notice the peach fuzz....

i think its going away though, and im almost on my 5th month.

Hi joga, I just started accutane 2.5 weeks ago and have also developed peach fuzz all over my face. Just wondering if this continued your entire treatment and when you stopped did it go away?

Hi, I've started accutane 2.5 weeks ago and have started developing peach fuzz everywhere. Do you remember if the peach fuzz worsen over your treatment or if it went away after?
