Title. I have had moderate body acne since I was a teenager; I'm starting to get really fed up with it (e.g., not feeling comfortable walking around shirtless because of it) and I am currently debating starting Accutane to combat it. I've heard mixed things about Accutane; does it really aggravate hair loss?
On a side note, I must say that finasteride did actually clear it up a little bit however it is still pretty bad/noticeable.
If you have cystic acne, adult acne equals face craters. Moon face.
I took everything, sugar free diets, holistic approach, over th counter, prescription drugs tropicals, proactive, etc. It all failed.
I even paid thousands for a natural path doctor. Nothing changed. I decided to go on Accutane. My dermatologist is a good man but he wouldn't prescribed me it so, I decided to order online. I told him. He prescribed me it. Even opened his door pointing out his waiting room and said some are screening for cancer. That it could be worse.
I handled 4months of the 6 before giving up. Accutane made me look sun burned. Lips were mangled. Hair fell out. I got a drastic receded hair line after the drug. It's been on going ever since.
Op, YouTube psychedelic substance. The YouTuber tells his story. He trips. He's cool but he did liquid Accutane. 80-100mg. He is cueball bald. It's powerful. It trashes liver. It has made people suicidal. I went to the hospital several times from it. Bed ridden. It's a awful drug but, it stopped acne.
Unless you will be crater face or moon face, seek an alternative. Your hair will fall out by forty. If acne gives you anxiety imagine beating acne, and hair falls out. It's slow, it's painful, and it isn't like a bandaid you can pull off. You watch it in agony.
Seek other ways. Clean up diet. No sugar. Watch which foods trigger your diet. Diary is mine. Drink lots of water. If you are getting deep inflammation, hyper pigmentation, and ongoing acne, decide. Many doctors won't prescribe it but, I lost hope. Now, I have hair loss. You maybe OK but, if you have male pattern baldness genes, Accutane and steroids will flip on that switch.
Do everything before seeking this last resort. Finally, if you are heavy, lose weight. If I was lighter, I would have been given under 80mg. X 6months. I think it's 20mg ea pill. 4x a day for 30days a pop +? Is it any wonder it causes hair loss?
Psychedelic substance took like 100mg of Accutane liquid and over the net from a site that no longer exists. He killed his hair but, he trips and doesn't care. Listen to his story and other horror stories before taking it.
I am steal needing to heal up from it. Taking milk thistle and other things for my liver. My hair is unhealthy lookin since the drug but acne is handled * knock on wood *!
