yasemina: after 3 months…with pictures…
September 23rd, 2009
hi there,
so i have been using this little pills for 3 months now..well what happened is that i could control my super powerfull never ending break out with a topical cream so now i dont have that much active acne.(touch the wooh ) but i have lots of red marks and some holes and everything…normally i should have 2.5 months left but to be honest i am not sure now..i guess i will need a bit longer than that to be acne and mark free…actually i am not sure if i will ever be mark free..
tomarrow is my derm appointment..i have loats of questions to ask…
about side effects well i dont feel any side effects right now..it is as if i dont use any drug.i mean my skin doesnt change at all, i dont feel any side effect,today i gat my blood test everything is ok even my colesterol (once was super high )is now normal.so i dont feel i am on roaccutane..my face is not dry at all even i use topical isoretinoid everynight plus 40 mg roaccutane !!! i dont understand that…well i hope it will continue like this about side effects…i am still on 40 mg. a day so i will ask if it is possible to have a higher dose now.i wanna see improvement gosh…..
ahhh just i am a bit red sometimes…especially when i am excited..well a little confession.there is a guy i like and everytime i see him i became red like a lobster and feel sooooooooooo hot as if my face is burning and i have flames caming out of my eyes..so i feel sooooo emberassed everytime i see him i insist on staying outside,going to park ,having a little walk next to river etc.so i am sure he thinks i am some kind of a girl like Heidi wandering outside all the time..i feel 15 years old again…this damm think happens only when i am with him
so that is all for now….
ahhh what do you use for this red marks and scars ?if anybody knows any usefull thing,i will appriciate.
take care all
have a wonderfull day

Hi Yasemina,
You may not be feeling it right now, but it does look like you’ve had some big improvements with your skin, so well done you. The going red is a pain isn’t it, even when I feel a little bit embarrassed my face flares up, which makes me more embarrassed, that should stop when I finish the course. I think with the scarring you just have to wait to let the skin heal itself once you finish the roacc and if you are not happy you can try and get some sort of laser treatment, but you have to wait a while after roacc to let the skin heal, also it costs a lot from what I’ve heard.
atGood Luck with your derm appointment, let us know how you get on, pleased your bloods are much better too.
Take Care

hi
and i will continue to use the topical cream and nothing new..
and i think i will use differin after the treatment for red marks and give some time to my skin…i guess i have to quit smoking because it doesnt help the skin renew itself…
atyep my derm said ouwwww you have some kind of improvement and we wouldnt expect an improvement after 3 months no ? (well he said exactly the same after my 2 month appointment)
he just said think positive and believe that they will go sooner or later…well derm ok i am waiting…
yeah i am happy about my bloods too..at least i know there is no liver demage…
and going red, well to think about it it is a funny thing..it just happens at a specific situation…well i guess i have more feeligs than i know about that guy
have a nice day

Wow! Your skin looks a lot better than before though! yes you can see the red marks, but they will fade. You don’t look like you’ve got that much active acne going on. Well done!!
And exciting to meet someone, isn’t it! Lovely feeling to be 15 again!!

aha! so you really have had improvements, you only have a few active acne lesions (even if it took an added topical lotion to get it under control) Keep up the positive attitude, and don’t give up hope!! I’m pretty sure that differin is helping fade my red marks and keeping any future acne at bay for me, and being quite mild its not too irritating (unless you are an idiot like me and plonk a blob of it right next to your eye then fall asleep) your lips look really sore though
the marks shoudl fade in the following months, but some scarring may remain, I have icepick and other types of scarring which are pretty much there for good unless I get some major facework done and Im not quite vain enough at this point in my life!
fingers crossed for further improvements this month and next

hi sparks,
ohhh i hope i wont jinx myself 
and i am sure it will continue like this..at the end you won against these noughty annoying unpredictable little bacterias 
i am sure you have a lot of years to enjoy the victory 
atthanks well after 4500 mg. of roaccutane plus 2 topical jel finally it seems i could control the acne…
yeah i think i am having a slow progress but to be honest i dont complain at all..finally i can see some improvement so i am in a good mood and with full of hope again..and about the marks well i dont know if i am imagining or not but they seem to be fading and for the holes etc.i think they are dissapearing slowly.i mean i have an area where my acne started and it was horrible before but now it is same level as my skin..so may be by next 3months they will be ok ? i will see..
and i read your postand see your pictures..your skin is amazing
keep up writings posts they are so nice to read..
hopefully next month i will post a picture with no acne and less marks..
kissesss yas
