I finished about 1-2 months ago and I couldn't be more happy!! I have minimal scarring and what I do have will be gone over summer. I have no ice picket scarring and I haven't had a spot for about 4 or 5 months. My skin isn't nearly as dry but I still moisturize daily. I finally have good skin!! I see pictures of me in September and I can't even remember my skin being that bad. My lips are finally no longer dry. However I do have one issue. When I was on accutane I had very dry eyes and I used eye drops but unfortunately it was a little too late and now I have a cornea abrasion that I still have yet to go to the doctor for! There's 2 or 3 tears in it and it's okay if I don't mess with it. I'm overall happy with my experience and SO thankful.

Jasmine, it's a very strong acne medication.

Bekah, that's great! I know the feeling. I had horrible acne for 3+ years until I started taking Oratane, a generic version of Accutane. I was on it from October 2012 to December 2013, which is a long time because I had to take a very low dose during the (long!) summer months. I couldn't be happier :)

Thank you all!! It made my acne worse until the 3rd month because it was clearing out everything that was left but when the changes started it was DRASTIC.
