acne
"I hope my review can help someone that's considering trying Accutane....

Im a 24 year old white female, I've had acne on my face/shoulders ever since I can remember. A typical breakout for me would consist of about 10-15 pimples and blackheads on my nose and chin area. I've tried everything from antibiotics to creams/face washes. Nothing has ever helped me. When I turned 18 I decided I had enough with the acne game and decided to see a dermatologist. I was put me on spironolactone 100mg once a day. I took spironolactone for a few years and yes, it did help a lot. My face was finally clearing up and I was happy with the results. Fast forward 6 years and my acne slowly started coming back. I was getting breakouts on my cheeks/forehead and my blackheads were still present (mind you they never cleared up on spironolactone). 
A friend of mine started Accutane and saw amazing results pretty quick. I never thought I could get on Accutane because they say  "Accutane is used to treat severe nodular acne". And while I had what I considered severe acne...I never thought it was "that bad". But I decided to go back to my dermatologist and ask about it. My Dr. was extremely supportive and agreed that I was a good fit for Accutane since prior remedies were proven no longer affective. 
I've now been on the drug three months and I just can't express how happy I am with it! Within a month my blackheads were gone!! That right there was amazing to me. My face is no longer oily and my "breakouts" are down to about 3 pimples (which will eventually become zero!). I haven't experienced any weird side effects. I started using moisturizer on my face DAY ONE. I think that was very important because I've never had any bad dry patches on my face. 

My daily facial routine consists of:

CeraVe Renewing SA Lotion: applied to my face as soon as I get out of the shower in the morning (face still wet) or after washing my face at night. Works very well under my make up. 

I wash my face with Dove bar soap morning and night. 

For my lips I use Lanolin cream. WORKS WONDERS. Can be purchased at Target, grocery stores, Walgreens...

As a conclusion, I'm extremely satisfied thus far with Accutane. My Dr. is recommending that I take the drug for a total of 6 months. 

I would be happy to answer any questions some of you may have! Just try it !"
