I have been off Accutane for about 1 month and I noticed 2 weeks ago I have developed a minor facial rash to both cheeks. Prior to Accutane I did have acne on my cheeks, but they were generally medium sized bumps and more under the skin. My skin is not dry and there are a couple visible small pimples on my cheeks as well surrounded by this rash. Has anyone experienced this as well? Is it a rash or is it small pimples? I need help! Thanks :)

Post a picture. If its a rough patch of dry skin then it could be eczema. Be sure to not use steroid cream as your skin is very sensitive
