I was on that for 5 months...and after that...AMAZING SKIN! And the derm. told me to just make sure I take good care of my skin and exfoliate.
Wow, Accutane used to be for more severe cases.

Actually, your derm is smart - listen to this.
I took accutane for 2.5 cycles of it. (you know, did the whole five month treatment almost three times). My skin would break out again, not that bad, but still - that's why they gave it to me again. The third time, I had switched Dermatologists, and my new one had a clue - my skin was breaking out because it was clogged with dry skin from when I took the accutane! So he had me do a few peels, and voila! Skin cleared up.
But - and this is the part that pisses me off - when my skin was breaking out from that, it made my pores way bigger. So, if my first derm hadn't been lame, and if I'd gotten the exfoliation right away, my skin would look way, way better today.
Glad your derm is smarter. Accutane was new when i took it.

I think mine was considered moderate...and usually they only do use it for severe cases...but mine was consistent, and I had tried the other stuff...so I was put on it. I got up to 60 mg. a day...and after the 4th month my skin was totally clear. I just take care of my skin now...washing it and also using a bit of 2.5 benzoyl peroxide (great stuff)...

No, but I went out and started pounding them down at about 4:30 and by midnight was in a room full of strippers and we all sang the National Anthem, which I started and went home shortly thereafter . This on a Tuesday night mind you

I hate VD.

You were in a room full of strippers and all you did was sing with them?
