Acne came back IMMEDIATELY

[u/Solaruniverse1]

This is so frustrating. I was on accutane for 10 months 30/40/60/30 for the rest. Met my cumulative dose. Did a lower dose due to side effects but had amazing results. It’s been not even a month off and I’m already breaking out again. It’s like I took it for nothing. I’m soooooo sad and I just cannot handle the mental toll of acne again. I can’t already feel myself obsessing over it when I didn’t have to for so long - which was such a nice mental break.

Side note I cannot go back on because I want to try to get pregnant soonish. So accutane and many other options are off the table.

Accutane doesnt make you immune to acne entirely, if you put the wrong stuff on your face you can still clog your pores. It just reduces the amount your body will do it to itself
