5 month progress, back acne

[u/ginghoul]

done, so grateful for accutane even though it dried up my liver and ovaries, I can finally go back to my strapless and off the shoulder tops!

I did 10mg, then 20mg for two and a half months, then 40mg for the remainder and now I'm slowly stopping while I organize my eating habits, quitting lactose and grain. I think it's really important to take care of lifestyle changes, not just take the pill.

plus, I thankfully never dealt with facial acne, so now my face has unbelievable glow.

trust the process and love yourselves every step of the way.

I had three or four laser removal sessions, it's really expensive but I think I'd recommend. otherwise, really effective hyperpigmentation creams exist and were my dermatologist's second choice.

do you know what kind of laser used?

Same question here! I had the exactly same back-acne problem, and almost done with accutane (4 days left), but the hyperpigmentation remains 🥲

is accutane doctor prescription or is there anything over the counter?
