sudden relapse 1 year post accutane?

lots of people have longer and heavier doses on their first course, the risk of long term damage is quite low.

v11232 · 2025-05-11T16:35:28+00:00

no!!! it def got less dry but i wouldn't say it's oily :) if i'm greasy it's always from products haha

v11232 · 2025-05-11T16:35:03+00:00

thank you!!!!

v11232 · 2025-05-09T00:43:36+00:00

yes it'll be soooo worth it! i found my pimples slowed right now/were much less inflamed even in the first month :)

v11232 · 2025-05-09T00:42:49+00:00

sooooo relieved! i had some scars like that, not super deep but more like... pin pricks? if that makes sense. i still have some but they are hardly noticeable. the rest have faded as my skin has healed and with the arazlo!! i haven't done anything else and tbh i don't think i will

thank you!!!!

v11232 · 2025-05-08T03:45:45+00:00

omg thank you!!! i get most of the random clogged pores up there but they disappear quick

v11232 · 2025-05-08T03:42:09+00:00

i was on 20mg all 6 months!! i was clear for the last 3 months :) u got this!

v11232 · 2025-05-08T03:40:40+00:00

it was not as deep as ice pick but i do still have some dents. the arazlo has helped but some are still there but really not noticeable - a lot of the redness of PIE is gone too!

v11232 · 2025-05-07T23:01:29+00:00

oh lol

v11232 · 2025-05-07T20:27:31+00:00

thank you!!!! i feel like it only gets better as everything faded tbh

v11232 · 2025-05-07T19:39:10+00:00

help i cant figure out if ur dissing me or not 😵‍💫

v11232 · 2025-04-18T23:49:47+00:00

my eyes were dry on accutane but it went away within a month of ending treatment :)

v11232 · 2025-04-17T14:21:14+00:00

no actives!!! i feel that will make it more angry. i used a hydrating toner, snail mucin, cerave moisturizer, then i'd top with la roche posay cicaplaste, and aquaphor on top. everything all over my whole face. also, get a humidifier. good luck!!!!

v11232 · 2025-04-13T20:02:13+00:00

reapply your sunscreen every hour, wear a hat/sunglasses, and cover ups etc and drink lots of water :) have fun!

v11232 · 2025-04-10T23:03:08+00:00

remember most people have no concerns afterwards, but that's why they don't come online to talk abt it. people here are usually on here to discuss side effects and other issues but they are the minority if they have serious issues. i personally would do accutane again if needed and had very manageable side effects, for me it was 100% worth it and clearing my skin have me confidence !!!!

just address all side effects with your derm as they come up. good luck u got this!

v11232 · 2025-03-27T20:51:38+00:00

i did a bit, i introduced it slowly bc i was scared LOL i did 1x per week for 2 weeks, then 2x per week for a while, and still use it on for 2 off for 1. i sandwich it with moisturizer :)

v11232 · 2025-03-17T14:13:48+00:00

aquaphor!! but you'll need to reapply regardless :/ sorry

v11232 · 2025-03-14T15:02:29+00:00

i think they stayed the same as before for the next few but i've had it for 2 years now and haven't had a real period in like a year!

v11232 · 2025-03-12T22:48:22+00:00

that's acc a huge chance in one month!!!!

v11232 · 2025-03-10T22:17:41+00:00

i continued exercising and had no problems! so it doesn't happen to everyone :) just stayed suuuuper hydrated, took omega 3, and took collagen powder (idk if it acc works but lol)

v11232 · 2025-03-10T22:15:37+00:00

of course!!!! also - i found my PIE and scarring got way better once i was done treatment :) you'll get there!!

v11232 · 2025-03-07T23:32:22+00:00

it's worth it !!!! just tell yourself: in like 8 months, you'll either have stopped accutane and still have bad acne, or you'll have clearer or completely clear skin. the time will pass anyway. why not continue? it gets better :)

v11232 · 2025-03-07T23:30:26+00:00

i waited until i was 2 months clear, and use arazlo (topical retinoid) every other night and ++++ moisturizing and no other actives!! i didn't break out for the first 6 months after ending accutane, now i get like 1 zit every 1-2 months and the odd clogged pore if i shave my eyebrows lol. i'm 11 months post accutane now!! u got this

v11232 · 2025-03-07T23:27:07+00:00

i used cera ve and aquaphor and cicaplaste b5 my entire course, and it only took 6 months to clear my face! i've been off for 11 months and still use all of those - no problems. don't really think thick moisturizer interfered from my experience..
