I’m very nervous about starting Accutane because my acne is already bad, and I hear it only gets a LOT worse than before once you start taking it, along with extremely dry skin and lips.
Is my acne definitely going to get worse when I start taking it? Does it become significantly, intolerably worse? When should I expect it to get worse?

When should I expect it to improve? I mainly have lots of discoloration, does that go away after taking Accutane? How many months into taking accutane should I expect to see improvements?
I ONLY WANT RESPONSES FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE EITHER ON ACCUTANE OR HAVE TAKEN IT IN THE PAST.
