Fuman 0 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Hi, I've always struggled with oily skin and I was just wondering what you guys who also have oily skin do for it. Thanks accutane is the only thing that's stopped it temporarily anyway but before I used oil blotting sheets but it only helped for like a couple hours before it came back I also tried this OC gel stuff that's supposed to soak up the oil but that only worked a couple hours to I heard vitamin B5 is supposed to help stop it but I tried it and it didn't work so dunno what else you can try Quote Link to post Share on other sites

2KFan 0 Share Posted February 27, 2006 my derm gave me an cleanser that is specifically for oily skin. it has made my skin a LITTLE less oily. its his own product tho, so you cant get it at a store or something Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionQueen 40 Share Posted February 27, 2006 if u have oily skin then accutane is for u Mac, no matter what your derm may have said to you ... as a general rule, derms are not going to prescribe accutane just because someone has oily skin. Cystic acne, yes .... stubborn acne that resists other treatment, yes ... shiny face, no ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cystic acne, yes .... stubborn acne that resists other treatment, yes ... shiny face, no ... well then I have persistent acne that doesnt respond to other treatment liek yes with the topicals it did help but its still there...
