  • great to see these results!

  • I have quited Accutane the other day because of the blurness in my eyes.. It's creepy can't see a thing.. I'd rather see my acne than get blind and know i don't have acne.. Lol o.O The good news is that it's actually working but I can't risk my eyes because of just some acne..

  • @PollyHarrison I wish you luck :) I'm going to see my dermatologist next week.

  • i just finished my first month! My dermatologist just jumped me from 40 mlg to 60 mlg and im nervous! I kinda just want to stay at 40 mlg! PS. Your videos are really helpful :)

  • @fitzy275 nope, not at all

  • @fitzy275 Each month lasts about 30 days, so no.. It would be the end of the 3/ beginning of the 4. month :)

  • accutane is like chemotherapy for your skin

  • I'm taking 60 mmg a day and I'm just starting my second month. My dry lips are moderate at best, nothing i can't manage. My acne has improved so much.

    This is a fucking Miracle Drug!!!!!

    It legit melts acne away

  • The interaction between genetic factors and lifestyle factors is what current medicine has been honing in on for the last few decades. Your phenotypic expression of your genotypic allocation doesn't rely soley on your genes, its the interplay between genetic predispositions and the influence of your environment. Sunlight, humidity, diet, stress, other illnesses can all positively or negatively impact your already underlying predisposition to any disease, acne included.

  • Hi, mod cystic acne since 15, now 25 jus started accutane.

    re: genetics vs. lifestyle. Acne is the result of increased sebum production leading to clogged pores and an environment for the proliferation of p. acnes. This same sebum, a few thousand generations back, actually made the hair that covered our entire face more lustrous and shiny, making us more attractive to the opposite sex. Most of us lost the hair, but some of us kept the sebum. Thats the explanation. :)

  • people say acne is sometimes caused because of stress and the answer is.. acne is what cases stress. tomorrow im going to be on accutane i hope everything goes well because im sick of this shit, and that you for posting these

  • @zenkaizer12 and it is also cause in what you eat.

  • Comment removed

  • Respect, just Respect from a fellow acne sufferer.

  • @Fladnentube shut the fuck up

  • wow your face looks betteer!

  • just want to say thanku for being informative in ur videos. I m a girl and in my 1 week of the drug, i watched so many vid's b4 i went on it, and like u say it really is a waiting game. i saw the guy that had a allergic reaction tooo...and was like (Oh)!! i am hoping i wont get to that stage. guessing uv been off it now for a while and hope things are ok.

  • lol @ the people who think people with acne are unhygienic, you actually think people with severe acne would just sit back and let their acne ruin them? Think...

  • @neffle2004 Hows your accutane so far? Im going to the derma this tuesday to see if I need accutane (It was really bad when i was 13, and its dying down since then but its still acne and just not pimples)

  • @yupitsheavy It's Miss to you :)

  • This made me more confident do go on this. I was worried at first about some of the side effects but It might be a risk I'm willing to take

  • you have a great attitude bro

  • hey what did u do to ur active pimples while on accutane? please give me advice

  • i love your hair and your eyes

  • you've got pretty eyes <3

  • Ya I have amazing eating habits (all organics, very balanced diet) and I've always washed my face at night and I have terrible acne. I mean for some people, it is hygiene and eating habits, but for me it is purely my dad's side of the family. I am not unhealthy.

  • as i up my dose from 40 to 60, my acne scars seem to get redder. weird.

  • how does your face look now

  • The first 4 months are really bad but last 2 months are definitly worth it.

  • I'm goin to the derm again this week... It will be my 2nd month wen I get my prescription again. I'm on 40 mg right now. My face is kinda a bit more clear. I had HUGE cysts all lined up on my jaw line. I couldn't smile becuz it hurt so bad. Those are all gone. But I still continue to get small cysts. Ugh :/ I will ask to up my dosage. And the only side affect I've felt are dryness.

  • Hey Chris, thank you for your videos. I am glad that it is working for you....I am thinking about going on Accutane, but like you said, there is a lot to consider....

  • Dude u look like zac effron

  • @Rebornprodigy22

    Yeah I agree he looks like Zac Effrond, the blond version

  • your hot! zits or not haha! very sexy man!

  • ACNE IS A BITCH

  • hey chrislax......did u eat like mac donalds and pizza while u were on accutane? am on my week 7 n i have acne just like urz...i need ur help man.....your videos r awesome they gave me confidence ...thnx

  • wow excellent vids, Im just starting accutaine. My acne isnt really that bad but nothing seems to work so im going on it. I get serious flar ups once and a while and somtimes it goes away completely! then it comes back like an atom bomb dropped, accutaine time! good work man! good work!

  • hey dude congratulations the results are inpressssssive i wish you the best

  • STarting month 2

    80mg

  • depression sets in like 1 month in, you can see some sort of degree in everyone who is on it, so if your on accutane tell your good friends to help you out, basicaly dont stay indoors, if your not doin any sports start doing something easy, like running.

  • @rawirinel is it possible to go to the gym doing weigh lifting?

  • you are beautiful!!!

  • zac efron

  • omg, i just watched like day 40 somethin and u look so much better!

    ahhh, i absolutly love when u flipped your hair!

    Beautiful:)

  • you look like zac efron!

  • dont touch it

  • Acne is brutal man; I am an old guy but suffered with acne like yours for twenty years. It destroyed my social life. No young person deserves to have his/her looks ruined by this curse. I took the accutane treatment at the age of 35 and this was the only med that actually worked long term. I know your pain. Even worse is the ridicule of others and having to walk around high school under the fluorescent lights which highlights the acne. It is psychologically damaging. Good luck!

  • @gwwayner i hate does damm lights even today lol

  • @gwwayner yea fluorescent lights suck...

  • thanks for the heads up and the support

  • Damn! You are lookin' good! You kinda look like that guy on high school musical, umm what's his name?? With blonde hair of course. I hope this treatment worked out for you in the end...my brother just started the other day and I am starting in a couple weeks. I am scared but I would do anything to get rid of this crap, it makes you miserable. I'll be rootin' for you! :)

  • That 3 months IS shitty

  • it looks alot better man

  • hey man can you please tell me something about accutane and smoking, i really need help. can you smoke while on accoutane (cigrettes)? thank you. Btw nice vid :D

  • no you're allowed to smoke while on accutane, i do it too, except i smoke weed, not cigarettes. But yeah you're pretty much good but you have to drink more water because smoking dehydrates you

  • I do not see why everyone is so astounded by accutane it is just a vitamin A supplement. It provides you with around 15000X the RDA amount of vitamin A which you have been lacking in your diet you have been conned by the pharma and doctors.

  • ur so lucky u can even take accutane i am highly allergic to it . if i took it my throat would swell and i wouldnt be able 2 breathe and die so ur lucky u can have it i have .but hey what can u do LOL =]

  • Comment removed

  • i can turn gay for this dude definetly

  • please tell me ur joking:P

  • Maybe you just are if you think that way.

    Just saying :)

  • Thank you for putting all these videos up!

  • i wish i would have done a video diary i know it would give people hope my face cleared up drastically but unfortunately im off accutane 80mgs a day spiked up my cholesterol and i had to go to the hospital :s ...so for everyone out there accutane is a very serious medicine and shouldnt be taken just for moderate acne and for everyone who is already taking it just make sure you eat healthy and stuff good luck to everyone out there who is on accutane

  • i dont have severe acne but i do have mild to moderate acne. Do you think that accutane would be right for me, or would it be to strong? Im not sure but great video, very helpful

  • @kellie53: I placed a naturopathic approach for acne on my channel it will remain posted for a few days.

  • hey im on accutane 2!! what is ur daily or was ur daily dosis o.O? what cleanser u use? i ise cetaphil but i dunno if there is something better !!

  • you have pretty eyes

  • hey man, post a new video!

  • Wow what a huge difference! Not only in your skin but you seem so much happier! I'm starting next week, i'm in the uk and 28 and no one i know has heard of accutane so your diary has been really helpful. Thank you so much. Looking forward to your next video.

  • i live in the uk too and im goin to my doctors tomorrow to try something new because everything i have prescribed does not seem to work, so how long does it take to finally get prescribed with accutane?

  • Hiya, i've been suffering for years, tried eveything else too. Doc suggested it a few years back but it was a last resort for me as i'm trying to start a family. I went to the docs 2 weeks ago, asked to go on it and was sent for a blood test. Every thing was okay so i got the prescription a few days later. I'm only on day two, but have started using E45 cream and lip balm before the side effects start. Let me know how your doing and i'll give u an update on my symptoms if you'd like?

  • Omg you have such nice eyes, and beautiful hair! & yeah i'm on accutane also, its the beginning of month 2 for me! hang in there! I'm on 40mg. and i was also on prednisone(sp?) for the first two weeks. and it didn't get bad until i finished the prednisone. so two weeks into accutane it just started getting worse, i got my initial breakout and ugh its still bad! it hasn't started healing yet! =(

    Neways, GOOD LUCK! (:

  • i'm on day 53, and since I started taking accutane my acne has gotten worse... ur skin looks so much better, I hope mine will too...soon :)

  • my mom was breaking ou til the last month if that helps out...She thought it wasnt goin 2 work 4 her....I thought she had on make-up when she got done though....And she tells me about the compliments she gets by others

  • ur hottt...with your skin problem and all...love ur eyes, btw ur skin has improved a lot!

  • Wow, very good result!

  • by the way. im 3 months into accutane its a miracle drug. dont talk shit about something you havn't been through. self esteem n self control play a major role on how ppl deal with acne, and this drug is literally an anti depressant. happy ur skins lookin better bro stay up

  • Jordonification, your a fucken senseless immigrant. accutane is a lifechanger. and ya say its for us "LAZY AMERICANS" but fuck you. were stronger smarter and live more meaningful lives then you ever fucken will, n we try not to talk shit about your poor countries that eat healthy. your a disgrace to yourself and your country. we'd rather help feed your pathetic excuse of a nation rather then see all you starve. and you have no idea whether genes play a part or not u fukn wana be scientist

  • your skin looks really good!! :)

  • Oily skin, because of increased hormones, is the reason. I've ate healthy, organic, low glysemic food for months and it did NOTHING. The last thing I'm gonna do is believe some fool over the internet from one fucking study.

    TAKE ACCUTANE YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT

    I've had no negative side effects other than dry lips and boogers in my nose all the time. My step brother took it and is 35 now and still is healthy as an ox.

  • dude you kinda look like you lost some weight, did you? I hear that can be a side effect of accutane, lossing weight.

  • i took prednisone first...and just the other day i started accutane and still finishing off prednisone..i dunno why but b4 when i were just using prednisone, i didn't really noticed much of a difference...

  • search the deathofacne

  • woooow ur face is getting better bro, congrats. I have a question 4u. When you get the initial break out , what weeks was it and how long does it take for your face to start going down??

  • you look great, man. good to see it working. i have had one round and i am afraid to start again :(

  • ur skin is getting better dude just keep it up!

  • Damn bro, looking better ic. Good 4 you. Question 4 you!! Are you on a diet?? what kind of food do you eat??

  • well its in pill form so you dont wash with it and whats easier, doing every thing u said or just take a pill twice a day

  • Hello Jordonification

    I'd like to point out that acne is not caused by a food group. I'm a vegetarian and do not drink milk. I'm also very health-oriented, and I still have acne. Our amigo here, Chris, surfs, so he gets plenty of Vit D and fresh air, he seems pretty fit so I'm sure he has a balanced diet

    Genetics + hormones are some of the factors, and those are obviously things you cannot control.

    It sounds like you don't have to deal with acne like some of us do. U're very fortunate.

  • Genetics have the slightist ioda to do with acne. About the diet part. I believe I said nothing but fresh fruits, vegetables and lean meats. That means no grains, dairy, processed or fatty foods!!! Also if you think its only diet then your sorely mistaken. Sleep, fresh air, exercise and state of mind are just as important.

  • If you're parents have a certain something then you're likely to have it as well. This is taught in like 7th grade bio.

    And no I specifically, clearly, said diet has nothing to do with it. Again, food does not contribute to acne, so solely eating fruits and vegetables, and lean meats wont give you nice skin, but overall it is a healthy diet. Exercise and state of mind are important, but will no eradicate acne.

  • Howeverrrr. As far as I know milk could possibly aggravate acne, but I am not entirely sure. So I will give you that.

  • Well then you go ahead and keep on eating whatever you want and keep on getting acne. I hope you suffer for it.

  • Not dead yet. And your a fool for dismissing what I said. Do you think cavemen got acne? They certainly didn't eat dorritos and processed food, milk or grains. So HA!

  • why do you go on every accutane video and say this shit? bro, just go outside, or hang out with friends. you don't have to sit in front of the computer and watch these videos.

  • Accutane isn't for "lazy americans"; it's for individuals who have tried everything, and yet nothing has worked. From medications, topical treatments, to pills. Eating habits has nothing to do with your skin. If you are going to make an ignorant comment, make sure you do research. Once you've get some proof to your theory, then you come back and try to make a better arguement.

    By they way, your skin looks amazing :]

  • ur an idiott

  • Stupid is as stupid does.

  • what the hell does that even mean? or have to DO with anything? stop being ignorant and childish. you're entitled to your opinion, but acne's tough, and you're NOT entitled to be an ass.

    hang in there! :)

  • Hahah... "Everyone who gets acne is unhealthy."

    How fucking ignorant are you? Acne is purely genetics, my dear.

    Your acne might have gotten better because you changed your lifestyle, but that doesn't apply to everyone else.

    I know someone who eats healthily, drinks 8 cups of water daily, is on oral and topical medication, and does just about everything else in the world to maintain her acne...but still, her she suffers from acne.

    Think before you speak; it'll save you a lot of embarrassment

  • Ignorant?

    You think acne is purely genetics? That doesn't make sense my friend. During WW1 did the soldiers have acne? I dont think so. Did they have BP, salicylic acid, or any other fancy treatments? No they didn't. What they did have though was no polution, sunlight and freshair.

    What your saying is that some where along the line american genes have been purged, and that now they somehow get acne. Idiotic thinking.

    Think before you speak; it'll save you a lot of embarrassment .

  • guesss what..... ppl during world war 1 did have acne. We just don't see it as pictures were super expensive to take so only ppl who thought it was worth it, would you pay big money to get a picture taken if your face was a mess

  • Lmao there are no recorded cases of acne during WW1. I'm a historian I would know.

  • why would you record cases of acne vulgaris anyway?

  • You would record it because red bumps on your face would be kind of weird. Don't you think?

  • um, hello - this was still the 20th century. people knew what blemishes were and there were many different kinds of skin conditions. its not like they were homo habilis or some sort of primal society - "red bumps" wouldn't be a strange, novel phenomenon. holy crap.

  • sure. but not weirder than having bombs everywhere.

  • seriously hahah

  • Of course there were cases of acne, it's not some "new" skin disease. Your mention of WWI and the lack of recorded acne cases may be related to insufficient documents. I'm not saying they did not exist, but they were uncommon to keep records about "so and so" having acne. And as a Historian, then you should know acne has been recored throughout history, notable is Emperor Hadrian, as he wore a beard to hide his acne, which made him stand out next to other clean shaven Greeks.

  • of course there were acne cases in WW1 u're a historian not a dermotologist

  • That's amazing that you know soldiers during WW1 didn't have acne; considering it was almost one hundred years ago. Were you around during that time to see for yourself? I don't think so. Just because there isn't photo images of it, doesn't mean it didn't occur. Acne has been around for centuries. Please, I beg you, please stop making moronic comments. If you can't make a valuable statement, then don't comment at all.

  • Hey, Acne is definitely related to genetics. My dad has psoriosis, I have psoroisis, If you dont know what that is, its also another skin condition). My dad is allergic to sulfa...and im allergic to sulfa. My dad had bad acne all the way up through his junior year of college and I have had severe acne since i was 14. You're a historian,not a statistics major. I think you might want to look more in to genetics and not as much in to old pictures if you want to have a scientific arguement.

  • GENETICS GENETICS GENETICS!!! Thats all you preach! In the case your stating you share the same allergy. You don't get acne purely because your dad did. I'm just saying that acne is caused by an unhealthy lifestle. The docotor doesn't have to deam you "Unhealthy", its just that your below the point where you begin to get acne. You guys are hurting yourselves by taking this, its not natural. I'm just trying to say that by making yourself healthy you will no longer have acne.

    Good day to you.

  • @Jordonification

    That's one of the most ignorant statements I've ever heard. Acne is mostly genetics. I live one of the most healthy lifestyles possible and I'm in the moderate-severe range with acne. I go to the gym 4 days a week and eat practically no junk food. Any doctor I've ever been to has told me that it's genetics. So unless you have it and know what you're talking about, quit fucking talking, you're not a doctor nor a specialist.

  • maybe you should learn how to read then.

  • Comment removed

  • @CobraDemon91

    I preach good heath, something that you should be proud of in this disease ridden world we live in today. What i am saying requires you to have a open mind, something that most North Americans don't. I am no longer going to reply to any of your comments. To understand what I am trying to say I think you should go watch the film "Food Matters". It changed my life and outlook on things. Please if not for me watch it for your own well being.

    Good day to you.

  • yup it's true i was at my derm yesterday and he told me that the number one factor is genetics, second factor is stress, third factor is enviroment. it's 100% true because I am a very healthy person and i have moderate persistent acne. so food has nothing to do with it.

  • @CobraDemon91 I eat practically no junk food. Do you eat raw all natural unaltered food? I didn't think so. Doctors know nothing about acne, thats why people still get it. I think that you can do whatever you want and think whatever you want, I really don't care if you think what im saying is bullshit, however you will still get acne and never have the TRULY perfect skin you desire.

  • @Jordonification My God are you kidding me? You're still on this kick? Seriously, grow up. You may think you're helping people but EVERYONE here disagrees with you, you've been commenting on this guy's videos for over a year now, I would think that you would take a hint at this point. You don't specialize in this, you don't know what you're talking about. Get a life man.

  • @ChrisLax16 Jordon is definitely wrong, but Christ you aren't completely right either. I think that each person is different---YES genetics and health can have an impact on people, but so can other aspects; everyone is different. I ran 3x a day and lifted, and ate a healthy diet all through high school but started get cystic acne. On top of that, no on in my immediate AND secondary family has ever had an issue with acne, and there is no history of cystic acne in my family at all.

  • @Jordonification idiot...

  • @Acm1ptete good one test tube baby...

  • @Jordonification moron...

  • well said chelsrea09! here here! :)

  • It's genetics if you're doing everything you can for your skin and still there is no change. I know people who sleep with their makeup on and in the morning they don't have one spot. I do that and shittt..

    obviously acne is not 100 % genetics, I was exaggerating.

  • were you in world war one? no. you have no idea who had acne and who didnt.

  • I wasn't alive you tool.

  • acne is hormonal and genetic you cant do anythin about it unlesss u control the hormone that produce all the sebum on ur skin!

  • @Jordonification I eat healthier than anyone I know, and I am on my second course of Accutane. I'm not saying eating healthy has no correlation, because I think eating unhealthy can make it worse. It is not the root cause, though. Honestly, if eating healthy was the cause of acne, I would be clear as hell and 3/4 of the world would have severe acne.

  • @mhodgman50 Not just eating but a healthy lifestyle in general, that means raw diet, being outside, getting fresh air, sunlight (vitamin D), and low stress levels. Also people are not all the same and some people no matter how chronically unhealthy they are, they will not get acne. You don't have to listen to what I'm saying I just want you to know that i'm not trying to be a dick I'm just trying to help. Otherwise I would not waste my time commenting.

  • Yea looks alot better man. I have Ance problems too. Not nearly as bad as yours was tho.I take Doxycycline. Yea it'll keep getting better you don't need anymore then 20 mg you sound like you wish you could take more but 20 is def enough are you usin any ance face wash too?

  • awesome dude, I'm glad its getting better!

  • DUDE your skin is A LOT better than your previous video. Your skin is in its healing process so you just have to hang in there a little longer. YOUR GOOD MAN!!! I am right behind you in MONTH 3. I am in my healing process too right now. FUCK YEAH!!!! =]

  • you're  cute and were before too!!

  • it is lookin better! this is great, good luck with the rest of the month!

  • I think your at week 11 dude. It's hard to keep track but I think you started after me.

  • wow, your face is getting so much better!! lookin great!!

  • You look like Peter from Degrassi. Anyway... Face looks great! Obvious progress. Congrats on reaching month 4.

  • ohh Peter is sooooo hot!

  • totally agree with you on 3 months thing, it is shitty i am on month 2 and a half and mine isnt better but i am on higher milligrams so mine should start dramatically improving but its not i just have less breakouts of pimples but still have cysts.

  • im on 30 mgs

    i think 60 mgs isnt good for me

    so im sticking on 30 for a while now

    loooooooooooong time

  • looks good man! slow but steady wins the race!

  • OMG! You look so amazing! and again you are sooo cute! :)

  • You look really good! I`ve watched your other videos and your skin is looking awesome right now. Thanks for updating!

  • dude my face is so dry bro. Like i've been on accutane for 2 and half months now and man my chin, all around my lips, nose, cheeks are all like flaky skin. it hurts to smile and stuff it sucks. I have to re-apply my moisturizer like every 30 minutes. Best way to think of how flaky my skin is well just think of a fishes scales.

  • You should probably talk to your doctor about going on a lower dose.

  • Yayyy! looking way better. :) i just started 2 days ago, looking forward to after the 6 months are up. and i saw that guy who had a allergic reaction too, soooo sad! :(

  • Glad that you are making good progress. we were getting worried about you for a while LOL.
