This is my final 6 months post-Accutane update. I've been 99% acne free, with only minor, small spots appearing around that time of the month or after I've been eating a lot of sugar. Some of the oil ...

Glad things are going better. I had some really bad headaches at one point, and during week 2-3 my face was incredibly itchy and sensitive. But these side effects disappeared as my body got used to th...

Thank you for this really informative blog Cleopatra - I will be following with interest and wish you all the best with your scar revision journey. My scars are very very similar to yours, except they...

I didn't see any improvement in my skin until the end of month three, and during the first two months it was definitely worse. But in month four my skin cleared up so well! And it stayed clear. I'm no...

Glad to see it's going well - you're skin is looking great. The red marks take time to fade, but fade they will.

I also experienced my worst side-effects at the week two point, so right near the beginning of my course. However, considering the severity of your reaction and how soon it has kicked in I would go an...

It's now four and a half months since I finished Roaccutane. I still continue to be acne-free! Considering that before Accutane I hadn't had a spot-free day in twelve years I can honestly say it is so...

So it's now over three months since I finished my Roaccutane course and I have a few updates: First of all, I've now been signed out of the dermatology clinic. The nurse gave me her email if I need to...

I used it a fair bit. It obviously doesn't help cysts, but it helps with pustules. Let me know if you have any questions about dry eyes.

Thanks for the update! What maintenance care did you do around your subcision procedures? Did you ever combine it with needling?

Hey jPablo! I had a quick suggestion for you - if you have a spot and you're really tempted to pick it, stick some sudocrem on it. It will help soothe the spot and soften the skin, and it will stop yo...

Still losing quite a bit of hair, though my hair doesn't look thin. My scalp itself is still dry and sensitive, but not itchy like it was. I have an appointment at the dermatology clinic soon and will...

Yeah, it's definitely looking more normal now. In some lights my scars are barely visible, but in angled lighting they can look pretty bad. I might try introducing some topical Retin A into my skincar...

Woah, I'd be VERY careful about messing around with scars with your fingernails. The needles on a dermarolling device are much much finer and precise.

(Not being able to edit your post could be the new site update - seems to be messing with certain functions). In terms of the Roaccutane - just wanted to say that it's perfectly normal for acne to get...

How long have you been off Accutane/Isotretinoin? You must NOT do anything like dermarolling until 6 months after you stop because your skin's ability to repair itself is reduced. Also, if you're plan...

Two months post-accutane So although the increased hair-loss is a little worrying, the good news is that my skin is generally doing very well. Redness is slowly slowly going and I don't flush so badly...

Thanks for the update. I wouldn't worry too much about the odd spot - everyone gets one sometimes. I'm actually hoping that a little bit of my oil production does come back - my scalp is still dry and...

Looking good! I think we forget sometimes that nobody's scrutinizing our skin quite as closely as we do in the mirror. In terms of dark circles, you could always try some light concealer under the ey...

46 Days Post-Accutane Hello all. Sorry for my prolonged absence - life is rather busy! First of all, I'm still acne free! I've had a couple of very very tiny spots, one disappeared overnight while th...
