"i suffered from mild/persistent acne, which only got worse when i started college due to the anxiety and stress. the break outs become more frequent as the years went by, so i decided to see a dermatologist. i was first prescribed a treatment of facial cleansers, which worked for awhile, but my acne eventually came back. then my dermatologist decided to put me on on claravis (accutane). the first 2 months were hell, due to the extremely dry/sensitive skin. i suffered cuts daily and shaving became torture, i almost quit on the treatment. however, i turned a corner around the start of month 3 and haven&#039;t looked back. my treatment lasted 5 months, and since ending it in october 2016 my skin has been completely clear."
