Yo /fit/
Im thinking of picking up some accutane.
I dont have very much acne, but just enough to piss me off.

I need to look flawless to have any self confidence. and im not ugly either thats the strange part.

I talked to my doctor about it but my doctor is an anti medicine douche and shot me down.
Fuck I need a new family doctor...
Do you guys recommend?
Oh and does it really make your hair frizzy? (I hear it removes alot of oils from the skin, so hair doesnt get greasy for days with out wash.)

im same as op: attractive but with annoying skin and shitforbrains dr turned him down for accutane. instead i just came out with retin-a (tretinoin, the topical form of isotretinoin, which is accutane).

i've been on the stuff for a little under a month, and i'm seeing the progress i want. it sucks at first because you basically have to ride out a shitstorm of rage on your face:
- it dries you out like fucking crazy
- makes you red
- breaks you out
*** but then afterwards my skin just suddenly adapted and i haven't gotten a legitimate inflamed pimple since.

tl;dr - people like OP who don't have severe acne should get retin-a and endure the first month and then get good results afterwards - make sure to use moisturizer and SPF SPF SPF SPF SPF

(protip: accutane is over 9000 times retin-a when it comes to side-effects)

I dont think my skin can handle anything that makes it red or dry.

I had recently used rubbing alcohol to disinfect as a recommendation (fuck, if she wasnt my girlfriend...)
and it left a large area of red which of course due to my beautiful melado skin tone, the red diffused to a dark scar. so I rolled with what looked like half a mustache for a while. it cleared up after 2-3months (i envy you white people when it comes to heal time)
and over the summer everything was cool and fine, then i got some moderate acne so i began to wash my face.
Cleanser. Toner.
No moisturizer, didnt know about it. So i went through a day and of course i got home and my face was crusty as hell and the red mustache had made its second appearance for some reason...
it diffuse much lighter that before with only the end being noticeable dark. So basically Im left with a miniture joker scar on one half of my face. FUCK I LOVE BEING A TEENAGE.
But if been washing with all 3 steps and have only gotten more acne.
It could have been pre existing break outs waiting to hit surface but still a pain in my ass.
I dont think i could bare taking a pill that will make it worst before better, school starts in 2 days.

MAKE SURE YOU TAKE ANTIBIOTICS FIRST BEFORE ACCUTANE MOST LIKELY YOU JUST HAVE AN INFECTION.....also you need to make sure you are peeling people you cannot unclog pores only slough off the dead skin cells to reopen them......

Is there like a slightly softcore-er version of accutane still in pill form?
