evan 0 Share Posted December 9, 2004 For those who have taken Accutane, what has happened when your finished? I'm afraid im going to get really oily again, and I mean before Accutane I was really really oily. I only have less than one month left and it's going so well right now, but im afraid whats going to happen after I get off Accutane. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NFSteelers 0 Share Posted December 9, 2004 Hey don't worry too much. My face was crystal clear until about 6 months after. I took it from Dec 03-May 04 and my face used to be covered, but now that I am breaking out more it isn't too bad. It is pretty manageable and I think it is just a normal breakout that a person can get. I am going to my dermatologist at the end of this month though to be prescribed something new. Most of my red marks are gone now too, so that is good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Neuvo wavo 0 Share Posted December 10, 2004 Bro, watch out.I've been off Accutane 2 months and I can feel oil coming. I can -feel- it wanting to start bubbling up out of my sebacious glands. Soon my skin will be choked with grease again.I'm dying here.For those who have taken Accutane, what has happened when your finished?

ltplcap 0 Share Posted December 10, 2004 don't tip, i was on accutane before @120mg ed for 6months, 2years ago, you will still break out after accutane but not even close to what you had before....maybe a imp here or 2, and a occa. cystbut all that can be greatly controlled by just retin-a after accutane Quote Link to post Share on other sites
evan 0 Author Share Posted December 10, 2004 Im not worried about breakouts, in fact my acne mainly consisted of a lot of oil and some cysts here and there. Now that im almost done accutane, my oil is completely gone and I just cant see it coming back. I like to feel my face now because it's smooth and not oily, but when it was all oily it was just nasty as hell. I think the only side effect of accutane that has really bothered me is dry eyes, some nosebleeds, and a load of red marks on my forehead, but other than that it has been great! Ive got less than half a month left, I just hope this doesnt go all to shit after I'm done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
