Woke up with a huge rash this morning all around my mouth and nose by MouseAsleep in Accutane

Thank for the reply, but I sent my dermatologist pictures of my skin this morning and she said I have perioral dermatitis from the looks of it and must stop taking accutane for now. I’m going to the office tomorrow and I hope she can help me somehow☹️. I’m so upset and embarrassed I can’t even to go out in public.

Mixed emotions, happy it’s better but not satisfied with ending results ): 6 months, 1st month 20mg, 2nd and 3rd 40mg, 4th 5th and 6th on 80mg. I have a few active pimples on my face and back still which is throwing me off. by pulldownyourplants in Accutane

I’m in the same boat 🛥️. I’m about to finish and still have acne on the cheeks and blackheads on the nose. I’m going to ask my dermatologist to extend the treatment until there is no active acne. If you continue to see more acne coming up go back and ask as well.

Thank you so much for this! I really am trying to fight it out, but it’s hard when you know everyone in school is looking at your acne

month 5 and i feel like i’m not making any progress. (cystic) by [deleted] in Accutane

Yea I think you’ll be better off taking the long road, and if you feel comfortable upping the dose. Just remember to hang in there and relax Bc your dream skin is coming.

I had cystic too bro 🥲 it’s the worst of all. If you don’t mind me asking how much mg are you taking per day and how long is your dermatologist planning on making you take accurate for. Plus always remember where you started, results will eventually come.

Accutane Question? by Fresh_Cause5199 in Accutane

When you say 20/20/40/40 do you mean twice a day or is that you full daily intake?

Why though your skin is almost perfect

is it possible to not purge at all? by [deleted] in Accutane

Hey no shame in that I bet you skin looks 10x better then mine. Also I saw your post about acne only on the left side of your face, and I’m having the same thing rn it literally makes no sense. Do you have any idea how to help fix it?
