"i&#039;m 19 and i had mild acne, i would see a new breakout or 2 almost every 3 days. i was told by my dermatologist that it would take about 3 months to work which is true. after about 3 months i really started to see an improvement. i went about 3 more months without any breakouts, until my dermatologist told me i didn&#039;t need it anymore and i could stop it. which was a mistake, i broke out quite a bit after stopping. about a month later i went back on it, and its been about 4 weeks on it and i&#039;m breaking out the most i have since i first ever started it!! i&#039;m very upset and it makes me very self conscious. i&#039;m starting to look into accutane."
