I was on 40mg for 6 months, finished 2 months ago, eyes are still red/puffy if my fucking dermatologist warned me of it I wouldnt have taken the shitty drug.
im 20 so im done growing
brutal, god willing it goes away after some time and isn't permanent. Have you tried soaking a wet cloth in hot (but not scalding) water, and gently pressing it against your eyes for a few minutes, 2x per day?
It’ll go away in a few more months, you just have to let your oil gland production recover
Derek MPMD said his oil gland production never went back to normal, i'm not sure if him being a roidcel has anything to do with that though.
It doesn’t come back all the way because accutane destroys oil glands. Though after quitting your skin shouldn’t be as dry as when you’re on accutane same thing for eyes
dose ?
Hey question to @feelgood and OP too
They went away while I was on accutane but came back after so you’ll probably have to find a specific treatment for them. If the small black dots on your nose are hair then you can just get it waxed off. If it’s blackheads you have to get them manually removed since waxing them could damage your skin
No sexual sides, dose 20 mg a day for 7 months. Hair loss wasn’t MPB but was telogen efflivum if you have male pattern baldness it’ll make it worse but if you’re on Fin then the hair should eventually go back to normal
Thankyou Ill try that, everyone says I look sad now, before my eyes looked good. I notice theres a lot of fluid retention too, like my eyes feel buggier, when I wake up i get really bad UEE but it gets better after 30 mins. However, overall my UEE is worse now than before accutane due to puffy eyelids.
yeah I know that , accutane doesn't cause MPB, it causes diffuse thinning all over the head (which is worse since you can't get a hair transplant later)
You can get them removed at a spa or salon, I don’t know any specific treatments for blackheads but I believe it’s easier to treat them normal acne since you can get them pulled out professionally
I got blessed by Christ himself and I have literally no acne on my skin, though my nose need fixing there
I don’t believe you can keep taking low dose without eventually causing permanent damage to your oil production.
It’s easy to get rid of, get them removed by a derma and start a gentle skincare routine for keeping the skin on your nose clean
my skin is so oily and acne prone that I don't mind nuking my oil glands permanently
shouldn't mk677 cause hairfall ? since its a sarm
MK677 isn’t a SARM, it’s a HGH secretagogue it increases your natural production of HGH which is good for hair.
then why don't I see it being mentioned in any posts for curing baldness , or in r/tressless ?
So if i want to never have oily skin again just use accutane?
Yeah I had extremely oily skin before and now my skin is soft and dry, I have to moisturize more though now but it beats having disgusting acne and shitty oily skin
yep it works wonders in that aspect, i never realised how oily and disgusting my skin was until i took accutane and had all my blackheads fall out and got smooth pretty skin
But i should wait a year or two since im 17 and grew two inches last year
Wait until you’re atleast 19/20, accutane will close your growth plates
definitely wait
yes bro not for height just some small bones that dont affect height
It’ll close the ones in your femur and tibia.

When I was on isotretinoin I also sometimes woke up with bloodshot eyes and I was also get nosebleeds from time to time. Same for dark circles under eyes.
“ The FDA received 41 reports worldwide of premature epiphyseal closure related to isotretinoin in patients under 18 years of age” that’s not a lot it would really suck for that to happen but it’s very uncommon it seemsAnalysis of the effects of isotretinoin on the premature epiphyseal closure in pediatric populations: a literature review - PubMed
Isotretinoin-induced premature epiphyseal closure and growth plate deformities seem to be linked to higher doses of isotretinoin for the duration of months to years. There have been reported cases of premature epiphyseal closure in individuals receiving therapeutic doses of isotretinoin for acne...
“Based on this study, isotretinoin appears to impact the growth plates of proximal tibia and distal femur.”
