I only have mild to moderate acne but nothing else has worked! I just want a fix. Does my skin qualify for accutane?

There are heaps of people that go on accutane for half of the amount of acne you have. Speak to your derm, because in the end of the day they have the final day. no one on here can prescribe or advice anything.

I agree with Chloe123...you have to see your doctor....if they agree you have given other treatments a fair go and you don't have any contraindications for using Accutane then there's a fair chance they would prescribe it for you.

Yeah it depends on the doctor but you have to make your case. Im in Australia and the dermatologist i went to gave me accutane straight away (this was a while back) plus i made the mistake of not taking the full course (dont do that) . My acne is back so now im gonna go back to the derm and figure something out
