im 15M. My acne has decided to get randomly worse, im having more breakouts and more acne marks. i really don't understand why this is happening since: no changes have been made in my eating, i have been sleeping more, school has ended and so i am a lot less stressed. i was thinking of starting accutane in september but maybe i should try using tretinoin cream or start wearing sunscreen before that?

yeah but this is strange, i thought i was alredy done with my highest puberty moment idk what to call it, cause like a couple of years a go my acne got really bad and then it got alot better, to the point where i almost had none on my face, it was like that almost this whole school year, some breakouts here and there but nothing much, now it is randomly starting to get worse

How much worse? If you already had it bad and then it got fixed idk why that wouldn’t happen again. I don’t recommend taking accutane unless it’s like completely horrendous. Just use a ton of face products if you don’t already and wait it out. If it doesn’t get better in a couple months then take accutane.

Well yeah it happens around twice for people, first the start of puberty till like a year or year and half after, since ur body can now handle the hormone change and balance itself to the hormone change , and the next time I’d assume is during a mans like peak testosterone phase, from late tanner stage 3-late 4
mark solution if this helped u?, click the checkmark beside my message , ty :love:

its not so much worse, i went from having pretty clear skin to having now a bit more breakouts, its not that bad its just getting worse
 
Go to the doctor now, he will probably make you try topicals first for a while, and if it doesn't get better then you'll get isotret. If you try topicals on your own and it doesn't help and then try and get a isotret prescription from your doctor he may not give it to you right away. So the doctor is a win-win.

Could be diet, sleep or most likely hormones. Just eat relatively clean, sleep well and have a good skin care routine + 0.025% Tret 2x a week.
