Acne causes scarring which really affects mental health forever. This is cruel

I was in a terrible state and although the side effects sucked, that drug saved my life.

The side effects people make it out are just acting crazy, it’s genuinely the only effective acne medication that will clear acne nothing else will. The only REAL side affects you will get is extremely dry skin, nose, and lips and back pains with leg pain. But it’s not unbearable. It’s a life saving drug for so many people and was for myself.

As a dermatologist in the UK who has had severe scarring acne as a teen, this saddens me. Skin conditions have huge impact on patients :(

Mine was treated by the NHS no problem, with a root cause of PMOS. Spironolactone & antibiotics cleared it after a few years. The rise in tret use for acne privately, will also be from those who don’t have acne but want to improve their skin. It’s important to deep dive further than this

Varshith21 :
I mean retinoids like adapalene and tretanoin also exist which are £30 for a tube which will last atleast 3 months and gives u the best possible skin with practically no life concerning side effects ?

My only side effect from accutane was dry skin. I know it’s not the case for everyone but it genuinely was the best decision I have made in my life so far

Gina :
I paid privately and it was the best money I've ever spent. I couldn't afford it now as I have kids but that was a few years ago when we were a two income no child household. I wish it was available more widely

Doctorchris :
Speaking as a dermatologist, there is a long waiting time for patients to be seen to receive Isotretinoin in the NHS. Definitely agree with this report.

Took 12 weeks to see a dermatologist here in Wales on the NHS, I’ve been on accutane for around 2.5/3 months now.

Damn in the US I get paid 3x my UK counter parts and I pay less in taxes, and even including my healthcare expenses, I make more. UK is a failed nation at this point

Ian :
This is for UK audiences not really American. You can get Accutane online for about $100 a month in the US with just submitting photos of yourself to an online service.
