Needless to say, I had tried everything from dermatologist recommended skincare to improving my mental health, my vegan diet, and exercise in order to help my acne subside. Unfortunately nothing worked and my acne was only getting worse. I made the decision to go on accutane. In this video I discuss what it’s like getting prescribed accutane and using ipledge, the cost, my dosage, side effects, skin and side effects after accutane with lots of pics including before and after accutane pictures, and ultimately why you deserve treatment. I have found that acne is something that many can be insensitive about, downplay, or write off saying things like “just wash your face.” I’m here to back up the idea that acne is a disease we are not always in control of and that if you want treatment you should be able to do so judgement free. I support you, your skin is worthy just the way you are. But if you desire treatment, hopefully this can provide some insight. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have below, and I will consider doing more videos with more specifics/answering questions. This is my first yt vid I’ve posted in a whole year, but I felt this was important to share and ease back in. Excited to be back, look out for new vids most mondays xx
