Just to let you all know that I recently went on Accutane and have had
fantastic results. I used z-cream (the only other thing that ever
worked) for about 1 year with pretty good results. Then one day, it
just stopped working. I had redness, large pores, peeling skin and
soooo many pimples/postules/papules, whatever! I went to several
doctors and tried several different kinds of treatment - benzoil
peroxide, anti-biotics, retin-A, etc. Then we tried Accutane, and
it's like I have a whole new skin! Redness is gone, pores are
smaller, no zits at all. My skin was quite dry at first, but now it's
fine and looking great.
