[Brutal] Accutane gave me Lichen Planopilaris

OP

If this is really scar tissue around the follicle and your current treatment is unsuccessful, I propose you consider an experimental treatment and that is Collagenase Microneedling starting with a small part of the scalp (1cmx1cm). It might reduce the scarring, do nothing, or make the hair loss worse so try an area you don’t care about like the back of the head/neck.

QWO is an injectable collagenase solution approved for breaking up collagenous septae that cause cellulite, so it would be an off label use.

You might be able to find a dermatologist or plastic surgeon willing to try. Most will probably say no since it’s off label and cite that collagenase injections into keloid scars have mixed results at best. But the way I see it, you would have little to lose.

Can I use this for Peyronie’s?

Dude that shit sounds terrible. Does it give ED?

Accutane is a nightmare drug and I wish I never took it. I am so sorry this happened to you too.

Can I ask why you regret taking it?
