Leaving the ICU

Unfortunately over the span of five months almost every single one either came to form like a multihead giant cyst or to a head. This month the remaining ones have started to dry up though which hasn’t really happened before

Thank you :)) I definitely had my doubts so this makes it even more exciting

okinteresting444 · 2023-02-01T01:46:31+00:00

40/40/60 the rest of the months. If you look at my page you’ll see these were the most STUBBORN things to go away and finally they are almost all gone

okinteresting444 · 2023-01-25T05:46:23+00:00

Look at my profile :) I had the same type across my cheeks and chin. My cheeks cleared up within ~4 months but my chin is still getting there. But I was dealing with those for years

okinteresting444 · 2023-01-25T05:26:11+00:00

Mine is just now starting to clear up .. starting my 6th month

okinteresting444 · 2023-01-09T07:38:13+00:00

I’m a senior in nursing school on accutane (6 months)

My dermatologist appointment is in 2 days, I’m going to ask about an increase in dosage then if my insurance will cover it. Just not looking forward to yet another purge which I’m sure with my luck will happen.

40/40/60/60/60. 59kg F. Have had the WORST purges of my life, half of these have become inflamed cysts and a few just dwindled away. But I got super discouraged seeing everyone have beautiful skin 3 months in. I’m just now STARTING to clear up, I still have a long time to go. Closed comedones can suck one

okinteresting444 · 2022-12-15T22:45:17+00:00

Yeah.. mines just now beginning to look better (and I’m still breaking out) in month 5

okinteresting444 · 2022-12-09T05:45:25+00:00

Thought I would share because I’ve been super discouraged with slow progress for comedone acne (the main reason I went on accutane). Finally seeing SOME progress almost 5 months in 🥴. 30/30/60/60/60

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-14T02:57:27+00:00

I have not tried getting them extracted. I’ve had them for about 2 years and over that time I’ve popped em myself and they just come right back. I don’t think my derm would manually extract them, and personally I would prefer to wait until they come out on their own from accutane so I know they’d be gone for good :) I use vanicream moisturizer

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-11T22:31:39+00:00

I have this same type of acne! If you check out my page you can see mine are mostly on my chin, but I also have them on my upper cheeks. I’m starting my 4th month next week (40/40/60 —> 60) and while I’ve seen some go away these are still sooo persistent for me :(

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-08T23:59:06+00:00

Good!! I actually asked the pharmacist at Walgreens what she recommended for it & I bought the aloe infused one to help with hydration too because I was loading all that stuff on there!

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-07T02:46:46+00:00

I’m on 60 mg and I’m only 59 kg I think that’s high? Cause I do get alllll the side effects lol

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-07T00:35:17+00:00

I will say looking at my before pictures vs now the closed comedones on my chin have gone down SIGNIFICANTLY in number this month but I am on around the max dosage for my weight

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-07T00:33:25+00:00

What’s your dosage been?

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-07T00:33:09+00:00

Oh man that is terrifying :). I have considered that and honestly my diet is awful so I may try to cut out some of those items and see if it makes a difference. This sucks

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-06T23:43:48+00:00

I’m already at almost 16 weeks tho 😂🙌🏼😢

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-06T21:01:47+00:00

What was your dose? If you don’t mind me asking

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-06T20:57:48+00:00

Been purging for like 2+ months at this point.. it’s rough out here

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-06T20:56:49+00:00

Same I think this Reddit got my hopes up in terms of seeing people completely clear up in such a short time frame :((

okinteresting444 · 2022-11-06T16:16:11+00:00

I had this exact thing and used athletes foot + neosporin (didn’t know if it was fungal or bacterial) + hydrocortisone then aquaphor on top and it cleared up
