i just recently got a prescription from the derm for tretinoin and doxycycline for mild cystic acne on my face and back, should i push for accutane instead of antibiotics?

topical + anti biotic is usually first line of defence, just dont use it, rub your face really hard the night before, and eat like shit the evening before a new apointment

30min before the apointment if you have a heatgun or blow dryer aim it at your face and try to heat up the area and irritate it as much as possible

tell them your not getting a good reaction from the doxy and cream and that you want to start accutane


just try to make it look at bad as possible the day before, accutane will fix everything in a few weeks
