People who have tried ACCUTANE!!!?? Please answer!!!?!


Question: People who have tried ACCUTANE!!!!?!? Please answer!!!!?
Okay so I am considering Accutane for this reason!. I am 21 and still dealing with acne and scarring!. I break out all of the time, no matter what I eat, no matter how much sleep I get, or how well I try to take care of my face!. I have been using proactive, and it helps, but not enough!. I take my vitamins and always have to cover my acne and scarring with heavy makeup, which I know isn't good for my skin, but I have no other option but to do this! I want to be normal and be able to go out and just use light powder and not damage my face from too much makeup!.

It's not just the acne and the pimples, but it is ALSO the scarring!. I have used different meds for this and nothing works! I've had this since 4th grade and people say "Oh it will go away," but it doesn't!!

However, after reading all of the side affects of Accutane, I am VERY hesitant to use it!. However, when you used it, what were some problems!? What were the good things about Accutane!? Please tell me everything about your experience with it! Is your acne still gone today using it!? What side effects have you experienced yourself!? Did you lose too much hair or get depressed and fatigued!?

I will award 10 points for the most detailed and thorough answer!!! :) I am trying to get to the root of this stupid problem that is called acne!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I was on Accutane a decade ago when I was in high shchool!.

The pros:

It worked!. To this day I only occasionally break out and even then I can easily manage with an over the counter face cleaner and some toner!.

Also, it was pretty simple to use!. Just take the pills when you're supposed to!.


The cons:

It was expensive!.

If I forgot to eat while taking it, I would get very nauseous!.

I think it made things a little worse at first, then it gradually improved my face!.



Overall, it worked for me!. I don't think I was all that depressed while on it!. I didn't get too fatigued either!. In fact, I was involved in lots of sports in high school, and taking Accutane never affected either my school work or my athletics!. I also don't recall loosing a lot of hair!. However, I have lots of very thick hair to begin with, so I probably wouldn't have noticed if I had lost some!.

If you aren't ready to invest in Accutane yet, or are still concerned about the side-effects, have you considered proactive!? A friend of mine had some problems with acne while in her late 20s early 30s!. She tried proactive and now she's hooked!. She loves it and says it works exactly how it is supposed to!. Plus it is a little bit less dangerous and the investment isn't all that huge if you find out you don't like it!.!.!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
