dw75

No post in a while because my computer and phone broke at the same time! My redness and smoothness has continued to improve, but I had 3 spots break out on my forehead that have taken 2 weeks to go. 1...

Thanks juwalker! Yeah it's surreal, time flew! Today I finish my previous prescription. Tomorrow I'm onto the final prescription bag, which has 8 week's worth of pills (3*5mg + 3*20mg / day for 56 day...

We all have those days. Admittedly I have them too often than I should. But stay positive! Things are still improving despite breakouts, which should decrease in severity/amount as time goes by. Just ...

I actually have no active acne on my face now. I have 2 scabs on my left cheek, but they're flat and nothing underneath them. Once those go my left cheek should look like my right. On my right neck li...

Great news! My headaches gradually went away as well. Half marathon on accutane? Well done! My knees have been feeling a bit off lately...

Hey. How're you getting on?

10 weeks of accutane done. After clearing up and getting back to normal from the initial breakout, I didn't think my skin improved that much in the last 3-4 weeks, but this week I've had 3 coworkers (...

Comparing month 2 with month 1 and ignoring the unrelated redness, your acne looks like it's starting to dry out like mine did. Month 3 should be good!

4 hours ago, BigM84 said: Just wondering how you're getting on with the redness? Has it got any worse/better over time? ive been on roaccutane nearly a month and had exactly the same sunburnt l...

I've experimented with diet since I was 16. I'm 23 now and started accutane in July. My personal experience has been similar to yours. My skin gets significantly oilier when I eat badly (from overeati...

8 weeks done. Physically not much has changed, but internally I feel like I'm less breakout-prone now, like my skin has become more stabilised. I have 1 active spot on my left cheek. Right neck/cheek ...

End of week 7 yesterday. Yesterday I started 75mg @ 75kg bodyweight, the 1mg/kg higher end dosage. Dose journey so far: July 12th I started 40mg (~0.5mg/kg) August 20th I started 60mg (~0.8mg/kg) ...

You'd think the fat / omega / nut supplements would aid the absorption making you drier (even though fats make your skin less dry). Pressure headaches are one of the side effects I thought. I had quit...

In person, my face looks red/blotchy and you can see the difference at my neck borderline where everything above is red/burnt-looking and everything below is a normal tone. And my derm said scars/red ...

Week 5 done. Dermatologist appointment today! I had my blood test before the appointment. Hopefully nothing bad on the results. In terms of the actual appointment: I've been moved up from 40mg to 75mg...

Thanks! 3 months clear, that's really promising! Would you say 80mg side effects were a lot more significant than 40mg? How did 80 feel? Right now I haven't got that much dryness on 40mg. I think I ne...
