Post Accutane course breakout

[Kaysone]

Finished my course about 2-3 weeks ago and I’m on my second medium sized pimple on my face. Advice? Or anyone with any experience?

Need some reccs for skincare post Accutane too. I have tretinoin 0.05% in my house and I will probably start using it.

Also plan some microneedling sessions to help with scarring.

What dose were you on and how long were you on it and weight

What dose were you on and how long were you on it and weight

60mg 6.5 months, tapered down to 40 for 1.5 and I’m like 73kg I’ve hit more than I need for my cumulative dose

 

[aelimaeli]

most likely you just ate like shit those couple weeks and you didnt hit your cumulative dose of accutane in your cycle which is why you are now more likelt to relapse
if its 1 or 2 pimples then it should be fine

 

[aelimaeli]

you said you will start using tret 0.05%, which is a not normal dose for beginners and is a little high
also if you JUST started using it you will most definetely break out, maybe thats why you got those few pimples
keep a simple skincare routine after accutane and try to avoid stuff like tret for now

Your hormones must be doing crazy shit. The only time I breakout after accutane course is when I run steroids.

You been doing steroids or feeling different lately hormones wise? Get blood test

Edit: Just checked your post history. Did you get the indiamart accutane?

My accutane was pharma otc in Ukraine I got it sent to me

As for hormones wise, I feel normal and I had test blood test and I’m sitting around 580ng/dl

I’ll use it probably after a month or two I haven’t yet

Did you breakout a single time while on accutane? Minus the purge shit at the start

for topical skincare, id recommend a 2% clindamycin + metronidazole gel (if u cant find this, 2% clindamycin or metronidazole is good enough), paired w 2/2.5% benzoyl peroxide.

this combo is super safe n relatively affordable. if u dont know how to use, ask me or ask ur derma

this is spot treatment (only use ON pimples, not on the whole face)

Very rarely I remember maybe a spot or two but I think it was caused by sweat / dirt something externally

After dinner most / every time so p much yeah

Potentially, this is unusual since you're way above cuma dose. Let me know your progress next month, tag me.

Anything new?

I stopped my course 4 weeks ago, and I've been getting shit daily now for a week, making me want to blow my shit smoove off... praying to god it's just my skin adjusting to being "normal" again

Honestly, nothing since i posted that, skin has been great. Try fixing up your diet that was a contributor for me I'm pretty sure, otherwise it shouldn't be happening. If it persists for a couple more months I would just low dose for a while in your shoes.
