5 Months post Accutane: Thought i'd send out what will probably be my final update. I started using BP wash about 2 months after I finished accutane because my forehead was such a mess. It sucked for ...

3 weeks post accutane: Well its back  was really hoping accutane was the answer for me but unfortunately I will have to keep trying to fight it. Very disheartening. 

Course 2, day 52 (Week 22): Just took my last pill!! I currently have 0 spots on my face. Very happy to be done but also VERY nervous of relapsing like I did last time. Can't wait to sto...

Course 2, day 147 (Week 21): Currently have 2 small spots in the middle of my forehead that don't come to a head and will probably go away within the next few days. Still surprised i'm not clear. Last...

Course 2, day 135 (Week 19): Still had a few actives throughout the week. I am seriously baffled as to how I was perfectly clear last course on a much lower dose and this course I have yet to complet...

Course 2, day 126 (Week 18): This week was a whole lot better!! I currently have 2 very small pimples that will go away on their own within a day or two but no large or painful spots!! Very happy, hop...

Course 2, day 118 (Week 17): Still breaking out pretty much every day. Yes, they are smaller but it is still extremely frustrating and I don't get it. This course is so much different tha...

Course 2, day 98 (Week 14): I have had 2 or 3 smaller (but still very noticeable), painful cyst like pimples on my forehead this week. Very discouraging. This time during my first course I was clear...

Course 2, day 90 (Week 13): Last few weeks have been extremely busy. I've been traveling like crazy for work and haven't had time to update this. The last 2 weeks have been better although I'm still g...

Course 2, day 70 (Week 10): This week was full of highs and lows. To start the week my face was awful with a cyst and a bunch of other spots, but as the week progressed my face got much better and I a...

Looking good! In my experience, and from reading countless blogs, ~day 80 is where most people see real progress so for you to be clearing up already after only 2 months is encouraging! Stay positive,...

Course 2, day 63 (Week 9): Skin has remained calmer than previous weeks, although I still have about 4-6 little spots, 2 of which are red and a little noticeable, although not large by a...

Course 2, day 56 (Week 8): Skin got worse than the pictures a few days after the post but calmed down a little as the week went on. After a massive breakout around my right temple I got another one th...

Course 2, day 49 (Week 7): Skin was horrible this week! No cysts but a lot of large pimples on my forehead and upper cheek/lower temple area. It was embarrassing going to work. Was really hoping this ...

Course 2, Day 42 (Week 6): For the first 2 days I had to reduce my dose down to 40mg because I was had a stomach bug. I felt dizzy, nauseous, had diarrhea and a headache for about 3 days. I am feeling...

GracieP - I hear you, in the end I really hope it works out for you (and me). The emotional toll acne takes is awful, I'm glad there are forums like this where we can talk about it with others experie...

Several Derms have documented that dry, peeling skin means the drug is being absorbed properly and anecdotal evidence indicates that those people have a very good chance of long term success post accu...

Course 2, Day 28 (Week 4): Improvement seems to have stalled from last week. Although I didn't break out crazy like the first 2 weeks I'm still getting spots every day and currently have a very large ...
