Hi! I'm hoping to be starting Roaccutane very soon, and was wondering that when it comes to dry lips, what do you peeps think is best; Vaseline or Aquaphor? I'm in the UK and I think that I'd have t...

Hi! I'm also from the UK (Cambridge) and I was wondering how long the process of being referred to a Derm took for you? My GP referred me to a Derm about 3 months ago, but the earliest appointment I ...

I don't think that it's always the acne that makes a woman seem less attractive: It's what the acne does to how a woman feels about herself. Men often like confident girls who feel comfortable in thei...

I'd go to your GP. If he thinks it's not bad enough to give you drugs (or you don't feel comfortable with taking them) then he can prescribe you a cream that should help you I'd at least go and talk ...

Personally, I would not ignore your derm's instructions. I don't know why exactly (you could easily research it though), but you always have to wait 2 weeks before taking Accutane if you've been on an...

Hiya I have the same problem. I went to my derm about it and she prescribed this cream called Skinoren. After 3 months of using it twice a day with no results, I was pretty fed up so I did some of my...

In January my doctor referred me to a private dermatologist at my local private hospital to discuss my acne and post inflammation hyperpigmentation (because my GP was pretty clueless about what to do ...

Hey, do you mean sudocrem? (that's what it's called in England - I'm assuming your American as you said diaper I've been pretty religious about this stuff for a few years. As you said, it contains zi...

Looks good. Improving a lot. I also just switched from 40mg to 60mg. :dD Thanks! How have you found the jump from 40mg to 60mg? >364919338"> >Wow! Your skin has improved so much! This is a...

Wow! Your skin has improved so much! This is also a really great Roaccutane log, please keep up the good work Plus, I'm a fellow Briton so... Hiya! I guess you were prescribed Roaccutane on the NHS?...

Thanks guys yeah i think we are I guess i always get parnoid that it will get worse. Id never ctitize anyone else for their skin I think beauty within a person is much more important. Beautiful stuf...

Hi Loretta, I just thought I's catch up on how you are? I'm afraid I've got bad news for you. I miscalculated the amount of time I've been using Skinoren. Turns out it's been 10 weeks since I started...

I'm also 14 and I'm in the early stages of being put on Accutane. First off, I don't think that anyone is judging you on your decision. People really just want to help you make the right decision as ...

I was put on Lymecycline in October and I am still taking it now. My skin looks so so much better now, although I still get acne. As for an initial breakout, it was hard to tell as I was constantly ge...

I feel exactly the same. Whilst reading this there were so many things that made me think, wow, this girl could be me. My wish for a genie would be to learn to love mirrors again because at the momen...

Accutane is only given for severe acne. I don't know where you live, but here in Britain you also have to try a full course of antibiotics before Accutane is even mentioned. It looks like the topical ...

My red marks look fairly similar to yours (although mine are completely flat?) and I was told I have post-inflammation hyper pigmentation. My derm told me that a) time is often the best cure for this ...

Hi, we are parents (u may not want to listen to us-we are mid 50's ) of 2 girls (our first is age 20) and our youngest is 14. Some background first, my husband's side of the family has a history of a...

My husband was on roacutane when we were at school (he had very severe acne on his face, back and chest) and it worked great for him no scars at all except for a few tiny ones on his back. He never ge...

Great thanks! Hope it works for us both, are you still getting break outs at all? Thank you Yup, they're not so bad on my face but unfortunately I'm still getting acne on my chest and back so I've ...

Hi! Sounds like a plan! My doctor is very elusive lol but I will try and get an appointment with him inbetween working and mummy duties - going to try a lactic peel in the meantime. Let me know how yo...

Don't make the same mistake I did, which was to wait and try every home remedy, cream, gel and wash out there instead of just going to see my doctor. I wish I had got professional help sooner as I hav...

Hi! I'm also from the Uk and have had the same problem with having to wait aaaaages to see a dermatologist. Anyway, when I eventually did see one, she told me I have severe hyper pigmentation. It's so...

What a fantastic idea! I'd love to join but I live in England... bit of a long way to travel Good luck with it though
