[quote=Anonymous]My about to be 15 yr old son started two months ago on 10 mg daily. Might bump to 20mg after bloodwork tests liver at month three. Chapped lips, of course, and a little purging. He did an extraction facial at 4 and 8 weeks. After the second one, his skin is smooth and the aesthetician said she sees significant reduction in below surface pimples. He should not need another extraction as the Accutane is preventing formation of new below surface pimples. Wish he had done it sooner. But glad he is clearing in a low dose. He had resisted initially due to reports of early closing of growth plates at high doses. So he waited until he hit 6’3” and will only agree to lowest dose. He hopes for another 1 to 2” in height as he is a rower. The doctor did not have any concerns about growth plates closing if he keeps to low dose. [/quote]
