[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted months ago requesting info on accutane here because like many of you my teen son had been on the antibiotic/topical roller coaster. His skin took a turn for the worse and we pretty much had our mind made up that it was time for accutane and I posted here to see what others had experienced with their teens taking this drug. 99% of the responses were a resounding yes, do it as this had been the only treatment that actually stopped the acne. One poster responded with "take him to see an aesthetician" and they were stopped in their tracks and ran out of the thread.

Anyhow, that one odd post planted a seed and we scheduled our teen to see a local aesthetician that deals with acne prone skin. To make a long story short, it's been 6 months and the treatments, products to promote healthy skin balance and a few diet changes have COMPLETELY cleared our kids acne as well as the scars he had.

If this treatment hadn't worked, then yes we probably would have resorted to accutane. I'm not posting this to bad talk accutane or those who have made that hard decision to use it and rid these poor kids of the blemishes. I just wanted to post our experience for perspective and in hopes that some of you can give it a shot and see if it works before having to jump to the most powerful and controversial option.[/quote]

Intrigued.  Is this from Glowmode in Tyson’s?  I have heard similar stories from there, but have not taken my DC.  [/quote]
