Max-

It doesn't always means that you will lose your hair because the scalp itching that you are experiencing now could be due to dry scalp as well, especially when you are still on accutane.

All I can tell you is, if you experience no signs of scalp inflammation like scalp itching, burning and tingling then you are most likely going to recover with time.

Accutane definitely cause fine lines and wrinkles and the reasons are skin thinning, dry skin and slow cell proliferation. People can be arrogant and choose not to believe but this do happens to some ...

Only time will tell if you will recover. Give it 18 mths.

Hard to tell what you are experiencing now but my guess is TE. Just wait it out and try not to fret because most of the hair will grow back with time if it is TE. By the way, there's no need for you t...

It's ruined my life and I can never be the person I was ever again. I can never even be normal looking. Im scared and I'm sick of all of this.     I feel your pain.

What I can say is, the hair shedding will slow down after a year or two.   P.S. When people says permanent hair loss it doesn't mean that you will lose all your hair and go bald. Instead, it mean...

What???   I wasn't asking why my scalp got dry. I am asking about who is at a higher risk of losing hair on Accutane. People with thin hair? Older people? etc.   Just look at your dad and ...

Probably due to dry scalp, andrewharv.

1. I don't have any kind of scalp inflammation or itchiness. Does this mean that it is more likely to be telogen effluvium than diffuse alopecia areata? I do have a really grainy/sandy scalp though, w...

Anyway, people who experience accutane hair loss should really give one or two of this few products a try.     1. Nizoral Shampoo Active Ingredient - 1% or 2% Ketoconazole   2. Scal...

Yeah, agree with electroshock. Our hair loss may take years to recover - and even if we do however recover, our hair will never be as thick as pre tane.

You guys are playing with fire by widen the capillaries, especially those who are already suffering from some form of dermatitis. By widen the capillaries, it will allow histamine to flow all over the...

Why not? There are alot of people who started to lose hair during or after they took accutane.

Grab some Nizoral 2% and Salicylic acid 3% shampoos. It will definitely helps a little.

People who hardly or never breakout is because their skin type is either Combination skin or best of all Normal skin. Acne is almost always due to Oily skin or Hormone Imbalance.

Hi faccutane Kinda surprise that your scalp is still oily even after you took large dose of accutane. Hopfully, what you are experiencing now is "oil" folliculitis rather than dermatitis. I will re...

Hi faccutane Did you experience scalp folliculitis as well? Anyway, you can try topical Salicylic acid 3% to suppress the itching and rashes.

Doryx is Doxycycline if I am not wrong. I know that drug can cause hairloss for some although it is extremely rare compare to accutane but I do believe it is only temporary for your case. Give it 6 mo...

Hi Matt   Yes, most likely the reason why you are still shedding alot of hair is due to Minoxidil. Minoxidil tends to make you lose alot of hair (at first), but the good news is - the hair will n...

Hi electroshock   I don't think you should worry because people without scalp itching or other form of inflammation tend to recover with time even when without treatment.

Hi faccutane, There were a few chaps who managed to recover from accutane induced hair loss but most probably what they were experienced back then was Telogen Effluvium. Scalp inflammation meaning ...

It depends, if your hair loss was due to accutane then maybe some of the hair that was regrowth from the used of Rogaine will stay. It act as a wake up call for those follicles that are still in sleep...

Rogaine will definitely make you shed slightly more at first, but it stated that the lost hair will be replace by stronger thicker hair. Personally I cannot use Rogaine as it tends to cause irritation...

Hi ayelens,   I would like to warn you regarding propecia. I do not know exactly what kind of side effects that it can cause you. But I do know that this is a dangerous drug that is known to ruin...
