I finished accutane in mid December. I got one big nodule right after stopping, right in the center of my cheek. I panicked and started a reduced version of the regimen right away. (One pump of everyt...

I small breakout after accutane seems to be the norm. Give it time. I had a big nodule on my cheek after accutane. It scared me into starting the regimen. Since then I've had one cyst below my jaw lin...

Yes, continue! Your other skin needs to purge too! Stick it out!

I had two rounds of minocycline with beautiful results. All my cysts cleared up within a month. I stayed on Mino for three months and remained clear for three more months after stopping. I got the sa...

It sounds like you are just purging. Everything needs to come out and that's why you're seeing stuff in places you wouldn't normally have to worry about.

How low is your dose? A little drinking and sun probably wouldn't have a huge effect on your first month of low dose accutane. But you probably won't see results for a while on low dose either, so why...

I had a big itchy nodule right after stopping accutane. I started a reduced version of the regimen right away and haven't had any more at all. It's been a month and a half.

What's your dose and weight? 4 months does seem a little short, but your dose might have been high for your weight. My derm told me there was a very small chance I would need a second course. I don...

Have you tried the regimen?

I just thought I should update this thread in case anyone else finds themselves here in a similar situation. I finished Accutane a month and a half ago. I now have a handsome six year old and clear ...

In Canada, the dermatologist's visits are free. The bloodwork is free, too. Without insurance: 40 mg was $70, 60mg was $125 and 80 mg was $150. I paid a total of $770.

If you were already on Accutane and then answered no to the medication question, they will most definitely not cover your Accutane. However, if you went on a second course of Accutane in the future, ...

Have you tried the regimen?

I think you really need to give the regimen a serious try. I think it would clear you up completely and quickly! Can you get regimen products where you are?

I think that's a good reason to call your doctor. I did notice the odd strange pain, but I don't think it was related to the Accutane.

Everything I've seen says not to use any acne products while on accutane. If you decide to use the bp anyway, use it sparingly! I wasn't extremely dry on accutane and I think now that bp would have he...

It would rip your top layer of skin off! Don't do it!

How long have you been on accutane? I imagine it might help in the early stages if you're not dry yet.

Your acne looks just like mine did. Accutane was the right choice for me. If everything comes back full blown my mind will change... My side affects were: 1. Crazy dry inside of my nose and loads of ...

I took minocycline twice for 3 month courses, and my acne always came back 3 months after that. It's not a permanent fix. Even though it cleared my skin I didn't want to stay on antibiotics forever, s...

I found my emotions were in kind of a dull state the entire time. A month after accutane and my emotions are returning. Wah!! I didn't notice any other unusual symptoms.

I finished accutane last month. My acne was similar to yours. Cysts are so hard to deal with and really depressing. I started getting them at 25 years. I used to dig mine out when they appeared becau...

I used the acne.org moisturizer throughout my entire course of Accutane and never had a flake.

I have very thick hair. I finished accutane a little over a month ago and I notice my brush is full every day. I don't notice a difference in the hair on my head and I don't find hair anywhere but in ...
