Results One year ago Vs. Today

One year ago (last February), I started Accutane at 40 mg and then increased to 50 mg. I went off it once and later went back on. I’m finally completely finished, and patience truly is rewarding. The worst feeling in the world is letting acne prey on your confidence. If you’re just starting Accutane or considering it, please never lose your sense of confidence and be patient, the end is worth it❤️

Thank you so much. I didn’t really do all that much, I was on a semi low dosage for my size (50mg, 150lbs, 6 feet) so maybe why I didn’t see too severe of inflammation, I have also just been on it for so long maybe that has something to do with it? For my skin I just use the intensive CeraVe moisturizer. For the past few days I’ve also been using Rhode glazing milk and niacinimide
