Thanks for the warning Michelle.. I will keep an eye out for them! Ladies is it me or are zits more painful while on accutane?? It seems everything is speeded up and I can literally feel them trying t...

Hi.. Just thought I would check in to see how you are doing!! I STILL have 2 cysts, seriously they will not die. Otherwise , skin looks clear. My derm is not concerned, he says they will resolve and ...

You are definitely not alone. Everyone with acne has these feelings to some extent and guess what people without acne also have feelings of not being worthy, beautiful enough, etc, etc. When my acne c...

Hi.. seriously your skin looks fine?! You are being your own worst critic. Your skin looks normal with the odd blemish- like a normal person really! Even my hubby who is definitely not acne prone gets...

Hello Cherry soda!! So sorry I been missing. I have been away with work and them got the flu.. I have been in bed for a week feeling like death! Your skin looks amazing.. you are glowing!! Good for y...

You will get the dramatic results I promise. Some people don't start clearing until the end of their course and then continue to clear after. It will happen. What is happening to you is totally normal...

Definitely get it cultured. Years ago I got a weird pustular rash on my back that I just assumed was acne - seeing as I am acne prone It responded to nothing and I was eventually referred to the derm...

Hi, I am in the UK and my doc suggested low dose roaccutane as well.I take up to 3 x 20mg capsules a wk. I am about 2 and a half months in and have had no real side effects (touch wood!) apart from sl...

For the sake of keeping things simple enough for some posters to understand, it sounds as if you had an allergic reaction to the drug. Like Megtree said, some people have trouble processing certain ch...

Hi JJ. I am on the exact same dose as you! I was supposed to be on 10mg a day but the chemist could not get hold of anything less than 20mg a day so I take 60mg a wk (3 tablets) I went on it end of l...

For those who've asked for before and after skin pictures...it's hard to demonstrate in photos. It's been six months for me, and to someone who isn't me it is subtle if not entirely unnoticeable. But ...

Good for you for getting your kid on accutane and for being such a caring parent! I wish someone would have done this for me when I was a teenager. I am on low dose accutane now and for me the scaries...

I have had depression too, although for meI have had bouts of it pre Roaccutane. Weirdly I am not having it now I am on Roaccutane. My only advice is to keep busy, as much as you want to lie in bed an...

Yes the hair loss!! I worried about that too. Although I spoke to two people who had been on accutane pre internet and they looked at my like I was stupid when I said about hair loss/ condition, they ...

Wow! Thank you! That means a lot to me. Sometimes it can be hard to look at yourself as handsome when you have a face full of zits. Today isn't the day, though. It's my birthday and I refuse to let ac...

Got to your dermatologist! I have been fighting cystic acne for a few years now and you name it I have tried it. The natural approach, BP, antibiotics, spiro, the pill, retin A, the list goes on and o...

Well done you. 70 to 75 % is a massive difference. Its a great feeling when you find something that helps! Hope your birthday present is clear skin! I know right!! Thanks, I really appreciate it. ...

Hiii guys! How is everyone doing? I have officially been on the Roaccutane for just under 2 months. I was back to work this week after 2 weeks off over Christmas ..I swear I dream every night these da...

Yes the hair loss!! I worried about that too. Although I spoke to two people who had been on accutane pre internet and they looked at my like I was stupid when I said about hair loss/ condition, they ...

Hi! I went on Roaccutane (I am from the UK) in November last year as well. I am on 10mg a day. For me it was the constant 1 to 2 cysts (that scarred) that I got every month that tipped me over the edg...

It took me about 3 or 4 wks to get a bit of a reaction. For me it was a bright red face! Totally my fault I used waaay too much and used not enough moisturiser.It is fab cream. It helped my skin no en...

Well done you. 70 to 75 % is a massive difference. Its a great feeling when you find something that helps! Hope your birthday present is clear skin!

I can't help but notice the financial incentive lol. But anyway my acne may not be gone, but I can defenatly say it's gotten much better without doing much exept washing my face with water in when I w...

Twenty five years ago when I first started getting acne my mum used to tell me to wash my face properly! She didn't mean to be cruel it was just that she didn't understand because she has never suffer...

Hopefully this is a positive post..! I went to school with two people who had the most horrendous cystic acne. I am talking giant boils all over the face and neck. One poor lad took 8 months off scho...
