Haven't really had that problem but I think that it won't really help because accutane slows down the healing processes.

I haven't used accutane, but I've read a lot of accounts that it doesn't help with red marks.

Assuming that the accutane works, though, you won't be building up a collection of red marks and they'll all go within a couple of months of your acne stopping.

Good luck!

This is hyperpigmentation and does fade - I used to have it severely (last year) when my acne was its worse, and now it's only a moderate issue for me. My skin isn't intensely dry at all on 20mg so I might exfoliate lightly, even though I'm not strictly allowed to. Accutane won't help it unless your skin happens to get so dry that it starts peeling off in layers (which you won't want, haha!).

I'm one month into accutane and my skin has already started clearing. When you stop forming active, painful pustules, even if you have hyperpigmentation, you really begin to feel like a normal person with normal skin again. I doubt you'll worry about the hyperpigmentationonce your acne goes away, and it'll fade anyway.

Accutane will not help with clearing the red marks themselves, however, all of the moisturizer and oil you slab on your face all day every day will! Just buy good-quality, nourishing moisturizers and oils. Vitamin E will help and I've heard great things about jojoba oil. Slather on moisturizer in the morning and oil at night, every day, multiple times if you are home throughout the day. These things should help the red marks over the course of Accutane. Oh, and definitely DON'T use the derma-roller! Your skin will be so fragile and irritated on Accutane. Poking it with tiny needles over still active acne is the worst thing you could do! Good luck.
