Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hi guys,I'm hoping some of you may be able to offer me some advice for skin care post accutane treatment. I used to browse here occasionally and this community seemed extremely positive and helpful, so I'm hoping I've come to the right place. I finished an 8ish month course of low dose accutane (20mg / day) 2-3 months ago. I took it one time previously as well but had to stop because my liver enzymes were too high (taking higher dose). The lower dose treatment was successful overall, I was only left with scarring and hyperpigmentation from past acne. However, lately I've noticed my skin reverting back, becoming slightly more oily again with whiteheads popping up randomly.My current routine is pretty basic, cleanse my face with Cerave Foaming Cleanser, then use Cetaphil Dermacontrol Moisturizer during the day and night. I also use EltaMD sunscreen if I'm going to be spending time outside. I am skeptical to go back on antibiotics or use topicals from the dermatologist, because I have tried them all (ok not all), and most seem to irritate my skin and make matters worse.If you have experience with maintaining healthy skin post accutane, please lend me some advice. I was going to post in /r/accutane, but that sub isn't nearly as active and I like the advice I've seen some of you give in the past on here.Any input is appreciated; thanks for your help!
