Before I start, I know that it is impossible to tell whether someones skin can be perfect as it is partly determined by genetics.
Step 1
I have been prescribed isotretinoin, which is the oral form of accutane, for my acne (not a majorly severe case but I was prescribed numerous medications before this). The side effects of this are dry face, sensitive skin (red areas), and depression. To combat this I am taking vitamin d3 (3000 IUs daily) and vitamin k2 (100µ g) to hopefully improve my mood and possible improve skin. I will be taking Isotretinoin for approximately 6 more months however dermatologist said it should be fully cleared by the 3 month mark.
Step 2
Once off isotretinoin, I should (hopefully) have no acne and the redness will subside. Throughout this time I will have been cleansing, moisturising, and applying vitamin c serum daily. If there is any acne scarring, hopefully just hyperpigmentation, I will either get specific cream approved for lightening the skin, or just pay for treatment of it.
Step 3
Assuming everything so far is going perfectly, my skin should be clear and smooth, I plan to get rid of most my moles and beauty spots, particularly the ones scattered around my face sides and one on my jaw line (this is only minor but not appealing). Only ones I plan to leave are near my nose/mouth area which provide the illusion of shorter mid face (may get rid of it though).
*This step can be carried out throughout the isotretinoin medication.
Final Step
Clear up any marks from the beauty spot removal and get a light tan to give a glow for my face.
This plan should take approximately 6 months, mainly prolonged by the isotretinoin treatment.
