I definitely have been experiencing drier patches of skin, usually in places where spots are healing (that's at only 20mg/day!). I don't normally use moisturiser as my derm told me not to, but if it g...

Day 26 Not much to report i.e. progress, however my derm told me today that as I've had a flare up on 20mg, I should stay on that dosage for another month and move up next month. Next derm appointment...

Keep strong man! I'm going through a breakout here through upping my dosage for my second month. It will get better eventually.

Day 23-25 Started 40mg/day on my 23rd day and since then I've been breaking out a bit, as was expected with the rise in dosage. At 20mg/day I think the breakout period had come an end and this passage...

Day 20-22 These last 3 days have been up-and-down days, maybe seen a few less breakouts, maybe due to the fact that my skin is now getting quite dry (surprised as only on 20mg/day) - which believe it ...

Hey Quite lucky by the sound of things, my IB started after 5 days and today has been its worst day (Day 19) - quite a few inflamed red spots that I'm not sure whether hey will come to a head. A few w...

I haven't used aquaphor no, I use cetaphil for a cleanser and occasionally use cetaphil moisturiser for dry skin. Just any sort of lip balm at the moment as my lips aren't that bad yet. DogMaster234 -...

Day 18-19 Recently I've been noticing that my previously good side (left side) has been getting many more breakouts, at the moment it's quite red and inflamed. Although my other side is also getting a...

My acne was moderate to severe, however 18 days in, it's continuously been getting worse. I may have a tiny bit to drink and try to blag it for the rest. Thanks guys

Haha I will definitely bring some and make it look like I'm drinking it, it'll be easy to avoid it I think. However when we are doing shots/during the countdown, it may be a little harder to avoid!

With New Years coming up in a few days I've started to worry about the whole 'drinking on accutane' situation. With loads of my friends at one big party, how can I avoid alcohol without telling them t...

I'm nearly 18 and from the UK. Like you I'm taking 20mg per day for 30 days with a plan of upping dosage next month. I'm on day 17 now so we're pretty much at the same stage. I started experiencing dr...

Day 16-17 Still nothing new to report, few more painful spots popping up that will dry up quite quickly before crusting or going red. Lips getting drier and skin staying same re oiliness. Perhaps a li...

Day 13-15 Had a few more whiteheads pop up around the jawline area, however they're small and (although they often leave a red mark) clear up pretty quickly. Again, less oiliness, which is awesome! Ot...

Yes vojta3576 - also breaking out a bit. What's keeping me positive is the thought of how clear my whole face will be in only 5 and a half months time!

Day 11-12 My skin has been so much less oily these last two days, as in I haven't had to wipe it clean at all during the day! However, I have been seeing a lot of small whiteheads popping up in places...

vojta3476 - Yeah I find that pretty cool! Yeah I'd imagine that your extra dryness is due to your higher dose. I'm using the Cetaphil gentle face wash at the moment, but haven't started using the mois...

Day 9 Still very oily, lips a bit chapped today. Few more whiteheads came up today in a cluster, otherwise not too many new things to report. Finished school for Christmas now, can relax and chill at ...

Nice! Check out my blog here, trying to update every day:

Day 8 Not necessarily noticed any new spots, however have seen a few formerly-red ones come to a head (whitehead). While my face is still extremely oily, today is the first day that I've noticed my li...

Day 7 Few more painful spots, face still very oily by the afternoon. No new side effects to report, maybe noticed a big of flakiness when out of the shower but that went away soon enough due to oilin...

I'm at the same stage as you. I started on the 12th of December and am also 17 and male. I'm on 20mg a day at the moment though, only difference. Check out my blog:

Day 6 A few more quite painful raised spots coming through today, my jawline is quite sore due to a possible cyst appearing on my chin. Trying to stay positive. Did the Aztec clay mask yesterday as I ...

Hi, I'm a 17 year old male from the UK. I've been a frequent visitor to this site and its forum for the last year and a half or so, when my acne started. I've moderate to severe acne (only on my face...
