[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would wait. The side effects of Accutane are excruciating, and there are other options now that weren't available when we were kids.[/quote] I used it when I was 19. Had literally zero side effects. Wish I'd used it earlier because although the acne went away my face is scarred. [/quote] My DH used it in his 20s. It was a game-changer for his life. His terrible cystic acne went away with one round. But he still has scars all over his face from the acne. I just asked him -- he said his only side effects were dry lips and face. He was terrified our son would have the same issue, but luckily DS only has regular teen acne. Still, DH took him to the dermatologist last year and got him on antibiotics, wash, moisturizer and prescription acne cream. My son's face is clear now. Those posters claiming that we are somehow on Accutane's payroll are nuts. [/quote]
