3rd Month - Week 11


Accutane: 80mg once a day

I really need to get into the habit of updating this weekly haha. So here is my update for the past 2 weeks.

Well its still same ol same ol. Lips dry, minor back aches, still breaking out, occassional headaches, I havnt gotten a red itchy eye in awhile (knocks on wood). I am still breaking out though, which is annoying. Actually seems worse recently, figured it would be improving as time goes on, but this past week hasnt been to good. My 3rd month will run out on the 15th of August. And I hear alot of people really start to clear up on their 4th month of Accutane. So I cannot wait. I am so fed up with acne.

As you can tell from the pictures I still have redness on my cheeks. Before Accutane I figured this was from the Topical creams I used, but seeing as how I've been off Topical Creams for over 3months now, I dont see how it still there. Kind of annoying since that doesnt help with the complexion and look of my skin.

Also as my Dermatologist suggested me using a dual blade razor to help prevent bumps and irritation. Well it only somewhat helped. Was better then a 3,4, or 5blade razor. But still caused irritation. So I am just back to an electric shaver. So if you are having trouble shaving and causing irritation; I highly suggest purchasing an electric shaver. I personally have the Norelco with a self cleaning stand. Seems to do the job. Doesnt give as close of a shave as a 5blade razor, but does the job.

Well that should do it for this week/past weeks ive missed. But if you have any questions for me or something to that sort, just email me at Deadmaninchhh316@aol.com
