hikaya 0 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Hey! I'm in my third month as well. I am on 80mg/day, and unfortunately, my lips are still suffering badly. But as far as my skin goes, I am completely clear! Over the past month or so, I developed a few cysts here or there, but I put some BP on them for a day or two, and they went away. Don't give up! The Accutane really works - if you had seen me in April, you would be shocked to see me now. Perhaps you need a higher dosage if you are not already on 80mg. Just keep taking care of your skin and drink lots of water...it will all be over soon. Good luck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
newgirl 0 Share Posted June 24, 2003 I didn't start seeing a significant difference until close to month 4, and now I am finally clearing up. I was the same as you, so just give it some more time. Good luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
