You're doing fine! Everyone reacts to the medication differently, you can get the dreaded "IB" earlier or later, only once, twice, three times, or not at all.

I got mine early too, it goes away in about 1-3 weeks. Just keep your skin clean, all this means is that the oil is being pushed up to the surface as a result of the treatment.

I won't lie, I've gotten a few scars since I started my treatment in late January. I'm hopeful they will minimze more by the time I'm done. Just drink a lot of water, keep moisterized and hope for the best. Don't let red marks bum you out either, they go away.

For lips I use burt's bees chapstick. It's been great to me for the last three months.

thanks 😀 x

my previous scarring has actually improved since accutane! i broke out and had cysts and whiteheads all over, but they quickly went away. im still breaking out a bit but whatever, its just like prior to taking accutane, and think its all gonna be better within a year!

My IB was that early too! Probably 2 weeks in. Im almost a month in and I'm still having the IB on some parts of my body. Hope yours clears up sooner than later! Good luck with your course
