"i took accutane for 5 months when i was 17 and saw amazing results. i thought that accutane was supposed to clear acne forever, but mine came back when i was about 21, but not as bad as it was when i was a teenager. after trying other treatments for the past 3 years, i am starting on accutane for the second time. i do not remember having any side effects, not even dryness. i really hope that it works as well as it did the first time."
