- During my consultations, my aim is to provide you with factual information to assist you in;
Finding an effective solution for your acne.
To provide safe treatments.
To mitigate & treat acne scarring.
Here are your options that I will give you during your consultation. It may involve one or more combinations, based on your clinical findings, expectations & preferences.

Facts on Accutane:
• This is the most effective medication for acne. Over 98% success rate in treating all forms of acne.
• For the most part you control the treatment, namely if this medication does not suit your lifestyle, or should you have any side effects, you can cease it or reduce the dose. It is up to you.
• Remission or cure is seen in 60-70% after completion of one course (6-12+ months). Hence in 30 to 40% of cases, recurrence can be expected.
• Skin purging (pushing acne out) can be expected in most cases. Acne may get worse for 2-6 weeks after starting Accutane.
• Common side effects; dry skin, sun-sensitivity, purging.
• Uncommon side effects; sore joints, liver enzyme changes, headaches, mood swings.
Treatment solutions are based upon science.
Why do I still get acne after Accutane?
Pust simply, you fall under the category of statistics. Your first course has a cure rate of around 60-70%. The flipside? 30-40% require a second course. Of that 20% require a third course. You are just a number.Statistics are applied to everyone. Of course it is more complicated than that as your medical dermatologist will exclude secondary causes of acne including-

Man. Hands down best video on youtube about this seriouslym
I’m very impressed with this video.
I’ve had doctors just want nothing to do with helping me because of my personal choices they disagree with resulting in acne so I’ll try reaching out to a dermatologist 👍
I only have back and chest, never had face or neck
By far the best information I have ever come across.
What about isotretinoin induced acne fulminans? There is a higher risk of this with higher test.
everyone in the fitness industry rn like WRITE THAT DOWN
I had terrible acne from my asthma preventative medication serotide that I took for nearly 12 years to help me breathe. It gave me painful cystic acne. I switched up medications and I have pretty good skin just hormonal breakouts now. I wonder if it was the steroid in the preventer?
Man I fucking hate acne
Excellent niche topic!
Hello doc hoping you could answer my question. Im just wondering Why my acne scar (quite wide, deep rolling scars) on my left and right cheek (front lower) keeps coming back even after my 2nd session. The procedures done were (air subcision and ha fillers). I have quite chubby cheeks btw. Hope you could answer my question doc. Thanks a lot
I recently had a kidney transplant I’m on prednisone and I have been to the dermatologist nothing is helping
Thank you for this. 4 time accutane survivor.
Is your Acne gone?
Accutane is a One time treatment medication. If you had to take it 4 times then you need a different doctor ASAP!
Hello doctor....I have used a medicene that increases hunger but after stopping that medication I started having red rashes on face....but again when I use that medice that rases go away what should I do...??...
What about the use of DIM for men
Just wanted to say Thank you.
Tudca with Nac will help clean the liver out.
Great points
What dosage should you run for a 70kg guy?
Dr. Davin can vitiligo be treated?
Could you do video on whey protein and acne and how you would treat it
Whey protein isolate should have enough of the lactose filtered out to not cause a problem
what about topical anti-androgens
What about low dose TRT? Can you change oil and it help? I read that sunflower seed would be the best, but only have knowledge on grape seed.
MCT is really the best. Doesn't raise C Reactive Protein and is absorbed very well within the muscle and subcutaneous as well.
@@dontbetreadin4777 MCT is my favorite as well.
I switched from grapeseed to mct. Seems to have reduced inflammation overall, no longer get itchy skin. But, acne is still troublesome
great info
Toute une video pour te dire à la fin d'aller voir un dermatologists...
So Accutane?
Foreal all that talk and dont get to the point and if thats what it is only is sucks
Yes accutane and a dht blocker
@@Ericwolf520 I took Accutane and Dutasteride and my hormonal acne cleared up. Now I am trying to fade these dark spots.
(this isn't about steroids) I just want to offer this info in the comments for anyone who might care-
my daughter is in her 20s and has had stubborn chest/shoulder/back acne for years and it was now affecting her confidence. she started spironolactone only 3 months ago, with one month of doxycycline..... it's GONE. completely gone. beautiful skin, except for some scar discoloration that will take time to fade. I cannot believe what a miracle these CHEAP medications were for her. good luck to anyone else dealing with acne it's so stubborn!
This won't work for males.
@@quidproquo82 did I say it would?? he clearly said in this video that spironolactone isn't for males .... I don't need to repeat it
@@stephienotcurry you never said it wasn't for males actually.
@@jamiealexander7065 and?????
@@quidproquo82Females take steroids too
Someone please help me i was on test for 3 months at a high dose during this time i literally had no acne. But after coming off 3 week after my face is covered with acne what is causing this
Drastic hormone fluctuations can cause acne breakouts. I had a huge breakout all over my back when I came off as well. Currently running accutane as the doc said in the video, kinda what ya gotta do if you’re using gear
@@braedenbillon6207 how we can reduce that can you pls tell me
Same thing happened to me last year was getting acne on my lower back
@@Ericwolf520 how you cure that?
@@Surajyaddvv accutane and a dht blocker if you’re on steroids.
I'ma say ITS WRONG
What about anvar?
Anavar is stacked with testosterone so just use accutane if an outbreak happens and do not run anavar alone ever
Anavar, while mild, is still liver toxic. I wouldn’t run it if taking accutane
🙂
🎉
I am taking prednisone for eczema is it the same thing?
No that’s a different category of steroid 😂. Not anabolic
Not same but prednisolone also give side effects of acne keep in mind I am still struggling with prednisolone acne flareup 😢
