I’m 2 Yrs Post & I Still Have The Beautiful Skin That I’ve Always Dreamed Of…Really The Best Decision I Could’ve Made 😊 Glad It Worked For You As Well ❤️ .
oh my goodness! you better stop crying. got me over here in tears because I'm so glad you've triumphed. congratulations so happy for you girl. you now have a testimony. keep telling it....and keep celebrating!!!
🥹🥲 look I’m about to start crying again lol. Thank you so much! And yes I’ll tell anyone who will listen because we need more conversations about the reality that not everyone’s skin is perfect.
when you cried in the video, i cried too. i’m going through my acne journey right now and nothing has been working. it is so debilitating to the point where you can’t enjoy life anymore. i’ve been scared and also money has been an issue but i believe it’s time to consult with a dermatologist. i really have faith in God that this will work. thank you for this video!❤️
@@Naakie Hey , I just started month three and don’t see any results but im experiencing joint pain in my neck when I turn my head and back pain , will it fade dark spots ??
Thank you for this video. Not enough black accutane patients have spoken about their experience so I’ve been hesitant for years. That message at the end about not letting fear take over was the word 👆 that I needed! That may be my new years resolution.
I'm currently taking it right now, just finished month 2 and seeing good results. I've been dealing with acne and hyperpigmentation all over my face since I was 10, and I'm now 27! While I wish I had done it years ago, I'm glad I'm finally doing it now. I resonate so much with your story, and I'm so happy for you!
@@nishithareddyl871 No hair loss or thinning in my experience thus far. My marks are gradually fading yes, I think because there is no new acne, so my old marks can finally heal and fade :)
@@briannacassandra8707 It's only been two months for me, but I am noticing my old hyperpigmentation is fading because my skin is calming down and there is no new acne causing new hyperpigmentation on top of the old!
Congratulations! So happy it worked out . You look amazing . I have been acne free for a year and sometimes I don’t recognize myself . More confident and happier for sure . Thanks accutane and Jesus 🤗.
God really is the MVP for giving my body the strength and health to get thru it! 🙌🏾 and yes girl sometimes I do a double take in the mirror like “who is that fine specimen?!” 😂
I really resonated with you when you said you’d previously been advised to take this medication but refused in fear, because this happened to me as well. I’m 20 now and I’ve been struggling with cystic acne and hyperpigmentation since I was 10. Now I even have some minimal scarring. I’ve gone through bullying, self-hatred , depression, and even accepting that I would never be nowhere near perfect skin in my life. It is pretty rough, and it is something only people who have gone through this can understand. I’m in a self love journey now, because I’m tired of feeling so low all the time, and now have met a new dermatologist who has told me he sees me and understands me finally has given me the confidence to start on accutane safely. Deep down I’m terrified it won’t work, but because I’ve tried everything else that is available throughout the years with no results, I really want to take this step forward for myself. Tysm for showing your journey, how vulnerable acne can make somebody feel and how you can finally rise from the ashes. I took the first pill an hour ago!! Send me luck omg ❤
This was so helpful! Thank you for taking the tine to document your journey. You look amazing! My daughter has horrible acne and scars. She just started Accutane. We have a long road ahead but it's so nice to see the light. I'm so happy for you! ❤
Your light shines beautifully inside & out. Well said "Make decisions out of faith and not out of fear". I'm so happy for you for finding a system that works for you. The Fight Against Acne is real. I'm an Intergrative Acne Expert, and I help my clients heal from Acne by treating the root causes, from the inside out. The most important step is determination and drive and you definitely portray this so well. Thank you for sharing your story. Stay Clear ❤️
I start in a week and honestly I’ve been thinking about just not doing it because of all the fears I have. Honestly after watching this video you’ve calmed me down tremendously going into this. Thank you,
Thank you for this video! I’m starting my journey with accutane this week and I’m so excited! I’ve been struggling with chronic acne since the 4th grade, I am now 25! Just wish I started sooner! Good luck to all the ladies also starting their journey!
I started it on July 19th. Hace experienced dry lips and skin... Really sticking to this treatment, Im doing it for me, to feel better and more secure with My skin.
Your comment, “I’ve made it to the other side of acne” is priceless. I get all your emotions! I’m currently on accutane and I am 44. I wish I would’ve taken it a decade or two ago as well but like you I had fear and I never thought it was severe enough but it has taken a big toll on me. I never leave the house without makeup and I’ve missed out on some of my life because of it. I would tell the younger generation not to hesitate but also to be responsible when making the decision to go on it. That’s what I can confidently say now is that I’m done having kids and have no reservations taking it. I make healthy decisions in the area of life style choices, I’m married with kids and don’t drink and follow all the guidelines. Acne is not worth holding back your life and accutane is there to help us get the other side of this.
I'm so happy I found your video!!! I'm starting accutane next month. I'm 36 and have had acne since 9th grade. Finally going to try this! I'm so happy for you 🥰 you got me 😪 if this cures my acne I know I'm going to be emotional.
How was your accutane experience im 35 last year my dermatologist recommended accutane but I was afraid of the risk but I’m considering taking it because my acne is getting out of control
Currently a month in, and I'm underneath the bottom of the rock. And just when I think I can't go lower, I go even lower. Your video just gave me hope. You look stunning btw. Can't believe you're 30 ❤
This is my second treatment on accutane cos my acne came back in 2022. I started on 20mg in September then 40mg in October and I'm now on 60mg which is my third month but alternating to 80 mg every other day as directed by my dermatologist. Side effects I get are dry lips, joint pain, backache, drowsiness, tiredness.....but they're tolerable. One side of my cheekbones is already smooth like butter. 👍🏾 I had been on Accutane prior in 2019- 2020 and my skin was so good after the treatment.
Morning. I’m currently in Accutane and I’m in my 3rd month. Your video has definitely inspired me to keep going😊 I was a little discouraged the first couple months because I wasn’t seeing any results but I will have patience with myself while on this journey. Thank you again and congratulations on clear beautiful skin ❤️❤️
@@briannacassandra8707 hey I definitely am in the same boat as you I am doing tons of research at the moment Assuming moturizers and sunscreens will be my best friend When do you start officially?
Ooh wow! I was watching an older video you made on spironolactone that said you would never ever try Accutane again.. I see that it works better now for you! So that's a plus~ ➕️ (lol I'm doing research rn on my hormonal acne as I recently started Curology)
Thank you for sharing your journey! ❤ I have been dealing with acne since 2009 and it’s truly been a struggle! I have a dermatology appointment in a week to discuss accutane. Excited to start my journey as well!
❤️❤️❤️ Just started my Accutane journey today. Dermatologist recommended 20mgs per day. I don’t know if am really ready for this…but an hopeful this will eventually work
Thank you for this!! I’m currently on month 2 and experiencing your similar side effects. You had me dying when you mentioned body discomfort with your neck your back 🤣🤣🤣
I'm so happy for you! You made me cry as well I have the same exact spots on my face and I am 34. Can I ask what made you go back to Accutane after you started the other treatment that was working?
Such a great documentation of your journey. Can I ask how your hair fared during the treatment? I’m thinking of going on roaccutane a third time but it always has such terrible affects on my hair, ie, hair loss, curl loss (like heat damage) and extreme dryness. X
I have tried everything since I started getting excessive acne 5yrs ago. Today I made the decision with my dermatologist to begin accutane next month. Or def March. 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾 Everything I'm seeing is wonderful but I was fearful about the side effects
I am super happy for you! I am currently on accutane as well, and im so anxious about it because my stomach feels uncomfortable, it seems to be gassy and sometimes I get stomach cramps on the lower left part and Im really scared, thinking if I should continue or not.
I’m 16 and I’ve had acne for 8-9 years now. I’m so tired and fed up. It’s cystic and I have dark spots all over my face (in every single crevice) and my body. Most people could say it’s the worst acne they’ve ever seen. It’s had a huge negative impact on my mental health. I’m going to start accutane soon maybe in janurary but I’m scared of the purging process. If I’m not at rock bottom rn then what is? I don’t want to see rock bottom 🙁.
Funnily enough this was the video to really push me towards getting on accutane myself. It's now day 1 and I can't say I'm enjoying it lol. Where did you hear that eating peanut butter toast or whatever would help it absorb better because that might me a good idea for me too.
Hi, actually now I'm on my accutane it's been 3 days but I feel i hardly breathe since I taking the pill its 20 milligrams , so should I stop it or try low dose?
I dealt with acne and now it is all gone. It has never returned. But my face is something else. Poreeees, uneven tone, rough, tired, wrinkles, i have done utterly everything but nothing has worked.
Thank you so much for these video's I am 52 years old and finally taking accutane!!! I am on my 5th week purging. Man listen my whole head is dry lips, scalp, ears, nose!!! LOL
Hello I know this is off topic but I'm getting a curly sew in but my hair dresser said that I can't wash my hair or get it wet or else the extensions will slip off so I was wondering if you know how to wash my scalp or the hair if I can't wet it
Girl I looked at my ears and I just saw a bit if dryness. I didn't know until you said it happened to you. I'm on Isotretinoin nou aswell. And I quickly looked at the back of my ears too. There one ear had a bit more dryness. I was shook girl. I never had dry ears. So I quickly grabbed my moisturizer and I slammed on it like a maniac 😂😂😂
Did you get any skin darkening? I'm (re)starting tomorrow and that was the one side effect that just killed me the last time (I didn't finish my first course).
I started my accutane medication last week and on day two, I started getting pain on my upper left part of my chest with mild headaches. Is this a normal side effect or is it a sign my body can’t handle accutane?
I would definitely recommend calling your dermatologist and discussing bc everyone’s body and dosages are different. I experienced slight headaches and upper back pain, but communicated with my derm to make sure that was normal for my body/dosage.
I’m going to be on Accutane next month. I was so scared. Thanks for the video! Did you use anything for the old scars? I know you said your scars got lighter after Accutane, but did you use anything else to help? I have so much scarring.
Did you still get those pimples most women get from there period and how long have you been off it cause what worries me is to do all that and it comes back and have to do the medication again ?????
I'm 17yr old (high school student), I've been suffering from acne for almost 4 years now, it really affected my lifestyle and appearance. Acne changed my personality, Acne destroyed me, I've been fighting against it for such a long time using various of products and none of them worked. I visited a dermatologist 2 months ago (first time in 4 years) and he prescribed me some medications including Isotretinoin (Roaccutane). I had no clue whatsoever about this capsule nor about its side effects. I'm currently on my second month with this capsule, although I stopped using Isotretinoin for a week after my first *box* was finished, it didn't take long (2days) before my skin completely changed its path in an unimagineable way, I started getting the worse acne I could think of but thankfully I visited another dermatologist and she treated and currently does as her son, I did some blood tests and was given the green flag to continue with Accutane. I'm currently on low doses 10mg during Moday-Friday and 20mg during weekends, the side effects are slight and hopefully there will be more improvement upon my skin. Note: Pretty sure you've heard of it already but I'm just reminding you to drink lots of water, I mean alot!!
I am currently on accutane and I’m in month 4/5 I am acne free however my skin (face) have gotten really dark like darker than the rest of my body did this happen to you? And if so what did you use to help cause my face is like 2-3 shades darker
I got prescription from a GP from clicks, I've noticed most Oratane patients do get darker during the treatment, so I'll keep hoping that it's part of the process n it's will pass. Thanks
Finished my journey after 6 months and my pimples came back after a month . Don’t know what to do now , I literally just gave up on my face at this point
@@relindisasangong3847 I’ve seen ppl use different cleansers. My derm from when I was on other acne meds told me to use oil free acne wash by nuetrogena. It’s orange color. And for moisturizer I use cetaphil moisturizing cream it’s a circular bottle with green lid! And around my really dry parts (lips nose and chin) I put the aquaphor 💗

I started my accutane medication last week and on day two, I started getting pain on my upper left part of my chest with mild headaches. Is this a normal side effect or is it a sign my body can’t handle accutane?
Call your doctor. Theyre your best source for a question like this.
I would definitely recommend calling your dermatologist and discussing bc everyone’s body and dosages are different. I experienced slight headaches and upper back pain, but communicated with my derm to make sure that was normal for my body/dosage.
Thank you. I already called my dermatologist and I’m seeing her tomorrow. I was curious to know if anyone else experienced the same.
@@Naakie Did u experience hair loss/hair thinning? and did dark acne marks go away?

I’m going to be on Accutane next month. I was so scared. Thanks for the video! Did you use anything for the old scars? I know you said your scars got lighter after Accutane, but did you use anything else to help? I have so much scarring.
Good luck! I had a series of chemical peels following my accurate treatment - which helped tremendously
I am 5 months post accutane and my eyes still give me grief!! How long did it take for yours to return fully back to normal? x
Did you still get those pimples most women get from there period and how long have you been off it cause what worries me is to do all that and it comes back and have to do the medication again ?????
Omg my ears were flaky too lol I thought it was wax at first. I was trying to figure out why my ears were so crusty.
I'm 17yr old (high school student), I've been suffering from acne for almost 4 years now, it really affected my lifestyle and appearance. Acne changed my personality, Acne destroyed me, I've been fighting against it for such a long time using various of products and none of them worked.
I visited a dermatologist 2 months ago (first time in 4 years) and he prescribed me some medications including Isotretinoin (Roaccutane). I had no clue whatsoever about this capsule nor about its side effects. I'm currently on my second month with this capsule, although I stopped using Isotretinoin for a week after my first *box* was finished, it didn't take long (2days) before my skin completely changed its path in an unimagineable way, I started getting the worse acne I could think of but thankfully I visited another dermatologist and she treated and currently does as her son, I did some blood tests and was given the green flag to continue with Accutane. I'm currently on low doses 10mg during Moday-Friday and 20mg during weekends, the side effects are slight and hopefully there will be more improvement upon my skin.
Note: Pretty sure you've heard of it already but I'm just reminding you to drink lots of water, I mean alot!!
I am currently on accutane and I’m in month 4/5 I am acne free however my skin (face) have gotten really dark like darker than the rest of my body did this happen to you? And if so what did you use to help cause my face is like 2-3 shades darker
How is your skin now?
How much is it to pay for it each month? Just generally curious coz I haven’t seen a dermatologist YET but I would like to save up for it tho
$100 plus bloodwork monthly
What products did you use during your process?
I'm currently on week 2 of Oratane, n I'm noticeable getting darker and darker, it's worrying me, did u experience this as well?
Did you consult a public or private derm? Most people recommend public hospitals for dermatologists. I'm confused on where to go😭
Also 12:39 you can see Naakie got a bit darker as well. If you're worried though call your doc😇
I got prescription from a GP from clicks, I've noticed most Oratane patients do get darker during the treatment, so I'll keep hoping that it's part of the process n it's will pass. Thanks
@@nokuphilambuthu2459 how are you now?
Finished my journey after 6 months and my pimples came back after a month . Don’t know what to do now , I literally just gave up on my face at this point
Did it come back how it did before ?? or is it a couple of pimples that come and go ?
Accutane is definately a rough drug forsure i honestly had a terrible experience on it
I also used accutane my video is Matlhodi Refiloe Tsololi on TH-cam its my only video I had to post because I couldn't believe how it helped me
Are you wearing makeup?
I just start taking it this month this is my second week how. Please how do I deal with my dry lips 😢
Aquaphor lip balm
Thanks sis and please what cleanser and moisturizer can I use
@@relindisasangong3847 I’ve seen ppl use different cleansers. My derm from when I was on other acne meds told me to use oil free acne wash by nuetrogena. It’s orange color. And for moisturizer I use cetaphil moisturizing cream it’s a circular bottle with green lid! And around my really dry parts (lips nose and chin) I put the aquaphor 💗
@@relindisasangong3847 and im just now going into my second month for reference on where I am in the process :)
