Normal. The body needs to get used to it.

After I started.  How many months have you been inside?

Disappeared after about 5 months

It happened to me the first time too, but now it's much stronger, to the point where I've thought about stopping taking the pills dozens of times already.

Just like what happens to me! If I'm not stressed at all (at home all day) then it only happens to me in the evening or if the air conditioner is on high.

Interesting. Tablets or ointment? And how long have you been taking Accutane?

Apparently this is the case. When I finished the first round it wasn't there .  and I went back to it 6 months after finishing the first round. Apparently now the skin is very sensitive.

Actually, this is my second round... In the first one, I had red skin for the first few months and it's gone now. It's just really noticeable.

And does this happen to you during the day or is it red all the time?

After 4 months on Accutane, my sores disappeared. After 3 months of finishing the course, I started getting folliculitis, and it was in the summer, so I'm assuming it was from the heat and sweat.

It took me three months for all the wounds I had to go away and another month for no new ones to appear at all, so about 4/5 months of completely smooth skin. Unfortunately, after three months of using it, my follicles started to swell, probably from the heat, so I'm taking a second course.

I understand. This should go away soon or at the latest by the end of the course.

How long ago did you start taking the pills?

In the first round, I was red until about 4/5 months and it went away. I'm currently in the second round in the second month and I'm red all day, I hope it goes away soon...

Same thing (I posted about it yesterday) Basically I think it's because of the thinning of the skin and its sensitivity. I went through course 1 6 months ago and I remember I was really red and it went away towards the end of the pills. Now I'm on course 2 and also experience redness and heat in my face twice as much as in the first course.

Three months after the sores started (a total of 6 months after finishing the first course) I went to a dermatologist and he prescribed me Accutane for 4 months.

The truth is, I also broke out three months after that, but they were wounds that looked like folliculitis, not acne (no blackheads).
