"i read the accutane horror stories, so i turned down my dermatologists suggestion of it. after 4 more years (25 now), the cystic acne has just been getting worse and worse. it was seriously impacting my life. i just finished a month ago doing a 5 month 60mg/day treatment and my skin is flawless. i cannot believe it. i actually have better skin than people who i once thought had beautiful perfect skin. i experienced some joint pain the first month and dry lips the entire time, but i started seeing reductions in acne by month 2 and had no new cysts by month 4. there are still a few that are healing (yes, i would get some cysts that take 6-8 months to heal). i would highly recommend this. i have so much of my life back not worrying about skin."
