frances 1 Share Posted November 10, 2004 accutane will help prevent new inflammatory lesions which will in turn prevent new post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Other than that I don't think accutane has any positive effect in regards to red marks. In fact many people say that their skin is very fragile and prone to marks and scarring on accutane.

Wally 0 Share Posted November 10, 2004 When I took Accutane, my red marks went away fairly quickly. During and after Accutane though, they took a long time to go away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CEO 0 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Marks did not go, Maybe some areas got lighter on face but not marks, and also marks took long time to heal / close during roaccutane. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
