"along with braces for my teeth, accutane was one of the best things i&rsquo;ve ever done. at the age of 12, i started to have severe acne and serious breakouts that would never go away, no matter what i tried, no matter what topical medications i was prescribed. finally, at 14, i was prescribed accutane, and i have to say, it was truly life changing. i did experience a rash-type skin response, along with sensitivity for the first week or so. after that, my skin became very dry. it was slightly annoying because i felt like a snake, as much as my skin was dry and sloughing off, but it was 1,000% worth it. here i am now i&rsquo;m my 20s and my skin is so clear and beautiful. i receive compliments all the time! accutane was a life saver."
