Finally found a vidoe that talked in length about how to deal with contacts when on accutane! I just started accutane and been bugged the most about how should i deal with eye dryness when I’m been wearing contacts for most of my days. Thank you for this tip! ❤
This was so helpful! Thank you for taking the tine to document your journey. You look amazing! My daughter has horrible acne and scars. She just started Accutane. We have a long road ahead but it's so nice to see the light. I'm so happy for you! ❤
Thank you and I’m glad it was helpful!! She’s got this, just have to stay positive! :)
how is she now?
Omg this video was god sent, I started accutane about 20 days & my back has been hurting so much and I had no idea it was a side effect 😭
Omg girl I know exactly how you feel😭 but you got this!!! Not saying drinking more water is going to cure it but maybe try to and see if it helps!
Hey how are you making out after 4 months ?
Great video and your skin is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!❤
I'm about to start Accutane. I'm very nervous but I'm glad I watched this video so I know what I might expect to ready myself and my friends/family.
Also remember everyone’s experience is different so yours could be super easy and breezy! But either way you got this!!
Just started my accutane today ❤️ hope I get results like you ! ❤️🥰
i absolutely loved this video, super helpful and ecouraging! im currently on month 2 (60mg) and yesssss the back pain is wild. i'll literally be standing for 5 mins and suddenly i'm reaching for my life alert lollllll
Aw thank you I’m glad it was!🥹 LMAO I literally felt the exact same way with my back pain so I totally feel you. Best of luck with it all!!
Girl, I have always felt the same way about embracing it. Heck no, acne is an imbalance and not a natural part of me. It’s a terribly stubborn condition. I’ve tried it all and my diet was pristine and my acne only got slightly better. I think it’s still worth eating clean and taking all the anti acne supplements but accutane seems to be what finally wins the war on acne.
I am in month 2 of Accutane . My back hurts me sometimes but not that much of pain .My skin is getting dry but as you said by moisturizing it gets much better . I take 20 mg a day . I cant wait until month 6 I really want that ⭐Clear Skin⭐
Yayy u got this!
How are you making out now?? What dosage are you on? How are the side effects
Update?
I have finished my Accutane treatment. My skin has improved, but I still have acne scars, so I am using acretin cream on them, and it's working. By the way, it has been a long time since I finished my Accutane pills.@@sief9765
Relate to this so much everything u say can relate to putting concealer, not wanting people to see my face thinking I look like a monster
Hello kindly tell me your skin care routine such as facewash mostiuser and sun screen which brands
Also tell me you cut off dairy?
Acne marks can fade by Isotretinoin little much?
I am on accutane now going on my 2nd month....But I have back pains dry lips also dry eyes and feel tired more often..But I know it will be worth it at the end......I haven't seen much progress yet I was purging alot but hope to see a different this month.....
People see progress at different stages but crossing my fingers for u 🤞🏼
how is ur skin noww?
Did u see any difference pls reply
Started 40mg a month ago. The purge was not horrible but emotionally very difficult to deal with. Dry skin and lips are manageable. My skin is starting to look great. My hair is almost never greasy. Otherwise no other side effect. Tomorrow i have my first blood test so i hope everything would be fine.
Remind me to update you guys in a month if you are interested
I started 40 mg about 10 days ago I already am seeing a huge difference!! I might ask my doctor to stay on 40mg to avoid these awful side effects.
Yay good luck!!
@@JimmyR83 hey are you taking it once a day? or 20mg twice?
@@JimmyR83 hey are you taking it once a day? or 20mg twice?
@@shreeyamchaturvedi3626 hey I’ve been taking one 40mg pill for a month and my doctor just bumped me to 80mg per day. I haven’t taken 80 yet I don’t want the side effects
i just turned 14 yesterday🎉 and in the afternoon on my birthday my dermatologist said that my blood test was good and now i get to go on “accutane” im currently on erythromycin 2 a day for a week before “accutane” then i have 1 every second day aswell as taking the erythromycin twice and after 2 weeks i’ll have the “accutane” every day and continue the same for a total of 9weeks (including the first week of erythromycin) school holidays end in 3 weeks so i don’t wanna purge during school but if it’s for clear skin i’ll do it!!! i’m really excited i’m all ready for it i wanna update who ever sees this every week ❤
Happy belated bday!! Yess the updates would be awesome! Best of luck you got this
@@NasreenK ahh tysm and i’m actually starting to get dry lips just from the erythromycin
@@-indy oo dry lips is the worst sometimes. I would slather vaseline alllll over lips at night and blistex also saved me!
@@NasreenK TYSM i’m gonna go get some after school!!
@@-indy yayy!
I am in day 17 still very oily 😭
I really thought people were being dramatic when they talked about how dry their lips get. I thought to myself, “There’s no way these people are properly moisturizing themselves”. I have used lip masks every night for over 3 years. My lips have always been my most complimented physical feature. But…my God…I am dryer than the Sahara desert. My lips are so dry I’m scared they won’t ever go back to normal again. Month 2 of 6 on Accutane. I’ve never wanted time to move as quickly as I do now.
I remember taking fish oil pills 💊 that will help with the muscle pain
What about hyperpigmentation I’m on accutane 10mg day 16 but I’m really worried about pigmentation I’m goona visit my derm after 1 months
When I was accutane and I’m getting ready to start my second round … it helped my hyperpigmentation
I’m on day 12 of accutane and am not looking forward to depression😂 but thank you for all the info very helpful pretty lady😊
Some people don’t experience depression at all on it so wishing u the best of luck!!
@@NasreenK fingers crossed 🤞🏼 thanks again☺️
@@ricardo7447 out of curiosity, have u experienced depression?
@@christiangc4344 honestly no. I’m not happy with the progress yet but I’m not depressed, more just upset that it’s not clearing yet. I’ll be starting month 4 in three days and not much progress so that’s why I’m upset so as far as the treatment I don’t think it’s effecting my mental state as of now
how are you now?
Did your hair stop growing on accutane ??
No, my hair growth stayed the same!
Did your skin peel on accutane?
not really, it was pretty dry but I made sure to stay on top of moisturizing so it wasn't that bad
i just took my first pill :D
What did you use to clear your acne scars
Accutane cleared majority of my scars, I was left with a few indent scars that I still have so I haven’t tried anything for that yet
Sweet
Jesus this video is really discouraging 😞. Beauty is pain but god damn lol. I’ve been on it for 10 days at 40mg. I’m already a little mentally disturbed so let’s see how this plays out 🤷♂️. Thanks for sharing this. Your face is gorgeous btw. You made that acne your btch 👊🏻
Thank you and good luck, you got this!! Also remember, side effects vary from person to person so chances are, you can have an easy smooth sailing journey on accutane! I know lots of people who have and even though it was rough for me I would do it again haha so I guess that makes it not unbearably awful😅
@@NasreenK I’m already drying out bigtime at 40mg. Do you have to go up in dosage after the first month? I go back Jan 13th I was gonna ask him if I can just ride out the 40mg dosage for awhile. Didn’t you say the bump from 40 to 60 was the worst part?
@@JimmyR83 yes and yes! my derm made me go up in dose every month until I hit 80mg but definitely ask to stay on just 40mg if that's what you want! They should let you do that, you might just have a longer length of treatment like a couple extra months but imo I think that's worth it
@@NasreenK my doctor doubled me to 80mg on first visit lol.
@@JimmyR83 oh gosh lol it’s okay you got this!! If anything you could probably always ask your doctor to lower it the next month if it feels Iike its too much
Isn’t accutane an extremely harmful and damaging medication for your longterm health?? Why would you do that to yourself?
I’m assuming you are a blessed human with no acne issues. You will never understand even if someone where to sit here and explain the reason why.
@@ricardo7447 you are assuming wrong! Acne is just not worth destroying your health forever for.
Accutane did not have any long term damaging effects on my health... Everyone who is on it needs to get blood work done every month and health is closely monitored so that nothing seriously damaging happens. It’s pretty rare for that to happen and if I were to go back in time I would still choose to go on it again because it actually changed my life and anyone with severe acne understands the struggle of it. Not to mention, I’m perfectly healthy now :)
@@NasreenK you’re really ignorant if you truly think that taking a couple blood tests is going to prevent longterm harm to your health in the future. Actually, most people who have been harmed by accutane took blood tests monthly and had normal results. That’s because the blood tests only look at a tiny fraction of all the problems that can happen in your body - it doesn’t detect potential mitochondria/dna damage!
Most people end up getting health problems within a few years of taking accutane, so you have that to look forward to. It’s too soon for you to tell how it will harm your health.
