I just found about this recently. I was always close minded about accutane because I saw all the videos of people going through mega doses and looking like a victim. But you don’t actually totally turn off your glands unless you megadose.
After doing research I realized it seems perfect for me. Within 10 minutes of washing my face I look greasy again.
So I’m about 2-3 weeks in and so far I see slight reduction in oil. I have dry ass lips but as long as I care for them it’s alright.
You only destroy your oil glands if you do a full purge with high dose. I have insanely over active oil glands so I’m taking 10mg a daily to reduce sebum production by ideally 50% or more
