I've been off of accutane for 2 days. While I was on accutane my lips had peeled every few days and grew back in 2 days. When I ended accutane my lips were still peeling and basically naked. Now my lips haven't healed yet and I've developed what feels like cold sores on my bottom and top lip barely inside the mouth.

Unlike while I was on accutane the skin is taking a long time to heal and quite painful? Is this normal?

You've been off Accutane for TWO days... You're not gonna get your lips back yet. I'm curious, I was prescribed a topical steroid for my lips during my Accutane course, but I haven't heard anyone else say they were too. Shouldn't that be the norm?

the side effects from Accutane take about a month to completely go away, so hang in there.
