"i just finished my second month of 20mg/daily accutane. i am starting 30mg/daily this month. i have had 3 episodes of severe cystic acne throughout my life and acne always. 

i am 37 and i can&#039;t remember a time when i didn&#039;t have pimples on my face. as i got older my acne moved to my chin and jawline, chest and back.

my acne began to clear right away on accutane. just going on to my third month and i am chest, back, and face are smoother than i&#039;ve ever felt.

i do have mildly chapped lips and i changed my cleanser to cerave for normal to dry skin. i use a moisturizer day and night and sometimes even coconut oil on my face.

my doctor wanted to get me up to 40mg daily but i requested to be more conservative and he was agreeable."
