- Today I am sharing my acne journey and how it has been throughout the years and what I am trying to clear it up. I will do a Treclin specific video once I complete it talking about my experience on medication for my acne. Please guys, don't attempt to access prescription medication for your acne without seeing a professional.

I struggled with acne since puberty. It was really bad. Tried antibiotics, home remedies, lifestyle changes, hormonal treatments. Nothing worked. This was before retinol serums and all the chemical exfoliants you can get now were accessible. So I tried Accutane. The side effects were pretty bad, I don't think it's that good for your body at all. I had to be on the lowest dosage because of my pancreas flaring up whenever we tried to go up. Yikes! But with minimal dosage and only 6 months of treatment, my acne disappeared FOREVER. This was 5 years ago and my skin has been super clear and healthy ever since. Acne hurts so bad, I was taking painkillers daily to cope with the pain. So happy now. I am grateful every day. It makes such a difference. Just my story, in case anyone is looking for info. :)
I’m 1 month into accutane rn. How long did it take for you to see actual results? 🙏🏼
@@jessica3908 About 2-3 months. Skin completely clear by 5-6. Good luck! 💕
please keep us updated on your acne journey and what you're doing
Absolutely gorgeous, need more people like you in the world 💕
Tried spiro, duac (gave me dermatitis), treclin, lymecycline and nothing worked so ended up taking isotretinoin. Best thing Ive ever done. Isotretinoin changed my life!!! Finished with it 2 years ago and not a single spot anywhere. I did have really oily skin to start with and where people complain about severe dryness, my skin was normal, it was just my lips that became a little dry. Highly recommend to anyone who just wants to be done with acne
Id be really interested in the hormones tests that your gynaecologists says. Please would you report back on that for us?
i’ve done isotretinoin for 6 months however after a year of clear skin my acne came back. I then got on doxycycline twice and went on lymecycline for 6 months, unfortunately my acne came back at this point i have given up on going to dermatologists and taking medication 😭😭
Thank you so much for sharing your acne journey ❤ been going through the same thing and I also learned to just live with it. Like Its something thats been with me for so long that it doesn't really bother me as much anymore 😅 my derm also recommended me lymecyline but im still not sure if i should take it or not 😂 its really interesting to see your Journey . It is so inspiring to see someone deal with acne with a positive view. So thank you for that. ❤
you have no idea how much you've inspired me to just embrace my skin and take it one step at a time.
Plus side note, I've been really enjoying your vlogs ❤ they're so fun and calming to watch.✨️
hey! i wanna share my story too. my acne started when i moved to college. it definitely healed. but turns out that moving out triggered my skin type (?). it went from normal to acne-prone. i get small breakouts each time going to new places. but big breakout when I the environment is very different. it has been more than a month and I am on medication now. the doctor gave me clindamycin and adapalene. It's been 2 weeks and it shows progress. although I have a question for you. when the whiteheads pop out, do you pick them? do you think it's easier/faster for the skin to heal when you extract the dried pimples?
One more recc I have is the pursuit of wellness podcast by Mari Lewellyn! Has some interesting parts that might be useful to you x
Could you make a video in Portuguese?
