Genetic acne

[ramacher]

Is there anything to solve my genetic acne besides accutane? The only choice I am left with is going to the dermatologist to maybe get prescribed pharm grade accutane. I have been running a sponsor's accutane, and who knows it is in those small pills. Another suggestion is right when I am done with weights/cardio go right to the spa at the gym instead of driving home then waiting to get into the shower.

I heard of something called acne annihilation , I haven't tried it but I hear good stories about it . Also getting a lot of tan and staying out in the sun seems to really help .

proactiv refining mask, vitamin A (50,000 - 75,000) iu's, zinc very good for clear skin, also try avocado n oatmeal clay mask, one tablespoon honey, half a teaspoon cinnamon powder, drop of lemon mix in bowl or cup (let sit on face for 5 minutes rinse off with warm water) twice a week.

How much were you running a day out of curiosity?
We're you getting any sides?
I just started about 3 weeks ago and could tell pretty quick it was legit. I guess it can be hit or miss.

Just noticed the date on your original post.
How did everything work out?

I run 20mg/day of isotretinoin when i break out or when im starting a blast...

Sometimes I hit the tane at 40mg/day for the first few days then drop it down to 20mg/day then sometimes i maintain with 10mg/day minimum if i feel i need to... I dont run it for longer than a few months at a time... and i take liver supps to help.

Ever see commercials on T.V. for the class action lawsuits against the makers of accutane? If not they are out there and there is a good reason why.

I'm prone to, it just runs in the family my mother is 51 and still gets acne..

I took accutane from my dermo for 5 1/2 months..

Started at 20mgs twice a day, I went to having about 200 break outs to about 10 in that first month

Than she bumped me up to 30mg twice a day and told me I needed to go a whole month without a breakout and than I can get off

Than month 3 was bumped up to 40mgs twice a day, liver and cholesterol went out of wack so was off for 2 weeks

Than back on 30mg twice a day for a month..

Currently I get maybe 1 pimple on my face every few weeks, before was like 10-20 a day all over my back, chest and face


Maybe you need to up your dose first, than maybe back down
