do acne come back after an accutane course?

[eden]

im on accutane right now, have read most of the post on accutane.
How many of you who has used it have acne cured?
if they have come back, are they much less than before? and how long after finishing the course do you notice new breakouts again?

yes it does come back for some people i was on 20mg for 4 months and i started to break out a month later when i took anavar; i have to go back on.

20mgs is very little, with the use of steroids it is likely that acne will come back but without the use in most individuals it doesnt come back.

the doctors all say that once its cured it will not comeback, but it does not nearly as extreme but it does come back

It is possible to burn out your oil glands with it and not get acne again for several years. You'll need 80mg+/day for 6 months or more to do it though. I like orals, winny, ox etc so I wouldn't take that much. I just use 20mg/day all the time and my liver values are fine and I have no acne. At that dose I can even tan in the sun without burning. So it's perfect for me.

Really Ulter? Did it get worse before better as is typical with the first few months of the accutane? I would love to do this, I love accutane but HATE the sun sensativity thing - if this works I am all over it.

I was afraid of going in the sun because you told me about getting burned in 10 minutes. But I got caught out in the ocean in Mexico with no shade for an hour and nothing happened. So I tried the tanning bed first when I got home and no burn. Then I went for it and laid out for 45 minutes, no burn. Now I have a full summer tan and never had a problem. But again I am only using 20mg/day. I didn't get acne from tren, test, ox, winny, all the things I would normally get it bad from. So for me this is perfect.

This is very good news. Never thought about low dosage of accutane. Now wheres that shady doctor of mine.
