im currently going through some mild cystic acne, started a couple months ago as my puberty really hit. i get like 1 new pimple every day, the under the skin kind and they leave a red mark for a couple weeks. apart from isotret and accutane, what diet changes or natural remedies would anyone recoomend?

wash your face at night, don’t touch and pick your face at all trust me, don’t stress about it as well
literally just enjoy going through puberty and seeing yourself get older and shit like it’s amazing when you check your height randomly and seeing like another inch taller

i think it’s just hormones since they’re changing rapidly, try benzoyl peroxide on active spots

yeah it can be, it’s diffukt to tell though. I do recommend accutane if it’s bad, i’m on it rn and i turned 17 yesterday. apart from dry lips and sun sensitivity i’ve had no side effects

i think maybe try azelaic acid first it’s quite good for mild spots, if that doesnt work try retinol -> tret-> last resort accutane

quick update sorry for spam but my boy just offered me 40mg accutane scripts as hes on it, i was thinking of cutting them in half to start with then upping the dose plus itll shrink my nose a little. anyone think this is stupid to not get it prescribed or nah

nah i don’t think you should do that tbf since accutane comes as like a powder inside a capsule so you can’t really cut it in half accurately and also starting on 20mg is way too harsh. for nose thrinking id recommend like 5mg a day
