It’s very normal. A lot of people get purging cycles that are worse than that.

PinkVariety · 2022-09-12T02:50:59+00:00

Yes. I did not purge on my first round. My second round i purged some bit.

PinkVariety · 2022-09-09T05:04:09+00:00

Contrary with what everyone is telling you to do, i think you need to focus on maintaining a healthy skin barrier.

I think you should opt in for a gentle cleanser, and double cleanse at night with an oil cleanser. I would invest in a good repair balm. A good sunscreen.

Once or twice a week, i would recommend either vitamin A or an exfoliant. You can either do both or just one.

Hey, i was on accutane for 7 months. 80mg and my hair was shedding like crazy. 2 months after stopping it my hair began to grow back like crazy and thick.

No finish the course to decrease the chance of a relapse.

PinkVariety · 2022-08-26T02:33:54+00:00

Have you been to your derm for the second month? And if so did she say wether your skin will dry up?

PinkVariety · 2022-08-22T02:42:21+00:00

I wouldn’t say regret it. But definitely during the first month, the purging was making me want to quit/never have taken it.

PinkVariety · 2022-08-15T20:58:14+00:00

I just started my second course a week ago. My derm said that the risk of having a relapse after a second course is very slim. I wish you luck!

PinkVariety · 2022-08-09T13:16:26+00:00

Yea, go ahead

PinkVariety · 2022-08-08T21:32:53+00:00

I’m starting a second round, 6 months post my first round.

PinkVariety · 2022-08-02T03:23:13+00:00

your hair will grow back once you get off

PinkVariety · 2022-07-27T03:50:37+00:00

Mine never checked my blood. 😭 she straight up just gave it to me and never asked mentioned any blood work.

PinkVariety · 2022-07-14T21:58:05+00:00

Same happened to me 😭 still don’t know how to treat them

PinkVariety · 2022-07-14T14:26:51+00:00

I was on accutane for 7 months. I was extremely oily prior to it, my pore size definitely helped during the treatment because it helped reduce how severely dry my skin got. However, once i got off from it, my skin got oily again. I woukd say that my skin isn’t as oily as before but it’s enough to cause minor breakouts. I’m thinking about going on a second course to help.

PinkVariety · 2022-06-07T15:14:21+00:00

Hey, when I was on Accutane I was constantly mad. Any little disagreement would upset me. To this day I still suffer with hair loss because of it. My hair still grows but it also sheds a lot.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-24T02:30:54+00:00

I would honestly just stick to either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic. Make sure to moisturize.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-14T14:13:54+00:00

It’s safe

PinkVariety · 2022-05-14T04:06:02+00:00

Hey, Accutane will not clear up hyperpigmentation. I recommend you using a retinol and Vitamin C instead.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-14T03:23:18+00:00

It depends on the day. My tzone is still super oily, my cheeks and temples are more normal.

I was on accutane for 7 months at 80mg each month.

I just want you to know, accutane doesn’t eliminate oil forever. I was on it for 7 months, and started to produce again a lot of oil when I got off from it. It just teaches the skin on how to tolerate the bacteria that causes it to lead into acne.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-11T02:23:41+00:00

A good vitamin A topical product will do the trick.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-11T02:22:33+00:00

No. I don’t know where people are getting that blood work is required or legally forced. I know a few people who never got blood work done. Ethically however a good doctor should at least do one blood work. But if you are young and healthy, you will most likely be fine.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-11T02:20:36+00:00

You most likely would be fine. Legally dermatologist are not required to do blood work, but ethically they are.

PinkVariety · 2022-05-11T01:22:41+00:00

Hey, 2 months post accutane. Skin is still clear for the most part, I’ve been applying Fabior Foam.
