    Depends on the person really. Sometimes it never goes away.

    Stiefotrex is a much better alternative to Accutane, IMO. no harsh side effects. It is a plant based celloulous cream that you spread on your acne. It works. Cleared me up. Before the treatment, I was looking like someone played darts on me.

    Is Stiefotrex OTC, or do you need a script like Accutane? I've been on Accutane a few times when I was in high school. I'd really rather stear clear of it from now on. LOL.

    as far as i can read, Stiefotrex's active ingredient is same as accutane's (isotretinoin), so there should be no significant difference.

    I guess it d e pends on how much you respect you body. Why pass the isotretioin thru your liver and kidneys when you can put it directly where the problem is? Stiefotrex is a topical cream available by prescription only. Having used both, I will comment that I will never use Accutane again.

    because mechanism of action of oral isotretinoin is totally different that the topical one... you can't compare the effectiveness btw...

    I'd never use Accutane again.

    Try rubbing alcohol on your shoulders/back 2x per day.

    I broke out bad on my back. Benzaclin has helped everything clear up fast for myself.

    Accutane is a drug that needs to be experimented with on a case by case basis.Some need to take everyday where some can and should take every other.This lessens sides greatly.Only you know your body.
