"my experience with accutane was for the most part very positive. i suffered from breakouts on my forehead that wouldn&rsquo;t go away no matter what i tried. i had taken various kinds of birth control over the years to help with my break outs but by the age of 20 it wasn&rsquo;t helping with my acne at all anymore. the first week or so of taking accutane i got what looked to be a rash on my whole face that was hot to the touch and sore. i felt like i had alligator skin! the rash went away though within a week or two and then the dry skin started but it was nothing i couldn&rsquo;t keep on top of. i used a vitamin e cream to keep it hydrated. i only did one round of medication and it seemed to do the trick. the dry skin is so worth it!!! my skin is beautiful!"
