Initial Breakout

Hi!

Does anybody know what the stats are on having an intitial breakout? I
actually haven't started Accutane yet, I want to wait until the summer
is over because I'm very sensitive to the sun as is. But I'm so
worried about the initial breakout, that's gotta be the hardest part
for me and I can't find info on the liklihood of it being bad or even
occuring.

Thanks!
