2nd month accutane
Hey guys like a girl is back i know i’ve been extremely inconsistent i’ve not been putting up content here but it’s just been crazy job oh mum life everything i’ve spent all over the place but here i am and at this time i’m here to give you guys a part two or the sequel to my acne journey you’ve ever watched my first video please do check it on my channel and see
Where this begins or the background story to this so basically this time i’m here to just tell you guys how my skin has behaved since the last time i spoke about it and showed you guys where my skin came from and how it progressed to where it was at that time no bad news my skin relapsed my acne record this time it was like 10 times worse than before it was painful
As how i have no idea what happened but my skin just broke and this time it wasn’t like the one – acne pimples here and there it was like full blast all over my cheeks it came from my chest i wasn’t thinking like maybe it’s not even just acting this is probably like some reaction to something but today i had no idea what happened but it happened and it did all
The damage possible to my skin every but it was this bad so i went back to my dermatologist and first of all here’s my girl what happened we were doing so well i’m like i don’t know what happened but we’re here now and i need to find out we fought you know it was terrible and we talked and i told him that there’s no way i better do the laser sessions again and
The hydro-facials and all those products gave me because it was crazy expensive crazy because i had to do i think like ten sessions of laser and about twelve sessions of hydro-facials and it’s since not cheap it’s not cheap at all so we sat down and he comes up with this idea of taking this drug it’s one of those drugs that people don’t talk about you know and
He tells me i’m gonna put you on a keep tape so i don’t know if you guys i heard about a keychain that was the first time i heard about it when you told me and i’m like so what if this accutane thing that you want to put me on socket in is a drug that recording it’s a small tiny pill you guys sorry so this is what a pill of a katene looks like small orange pill
That you’re supposed to take every day for six months that ideally yeah six months i know so what it does is basically it dries out or actually reduces the amount of seven produced by your skin so if you know acne is caused by excess oils in your skin so when your the oil in your skin is trying to escape it escapes in the form of pimples acne so some people get
Too severe cystic acne and that’s a can acne i got mine is also hormonal so every now and then my hormones will be all over the place and my skin will just break out so um accutane works by drying out to the excess oils from your skin and if you have oily skin your transition for escape to either normal or dry skin but mostly normal if you had very oily skin so
Um we talked about this accutane drug and to be honest i was extremely skeptical about china because the side-effects are just crazy because you get side effects like try lips you have dry eyes and you have to use artificial tears you get flaky crusty skin you some people get upset tummies some people get like their hair starts spinning you cannot get pregnant
At all because your baby will come out with birth defects and that that part is so serious because if they find out like you’re pregnant they initially have to abort it’s that serious i had to do several tests to just make sure that my skin i mean my body can take this drugs like you have to do a liver profile test you have to do a little cholesterol test like
There’s a lot that goes into this before you start taking the drug and it’s one of those drugs that he has to make sure you’re on a contraceptive because you cannot get pregnant because i decide you know what let me try this the one time so i got my drugs and he told me that it would get worse before it got better and sure as hell it got worse on the first week
Then i started taking this drug so what happened is the first week actually i think the first two weeks for most people is that it first takes out everything that was trying to form in your in your face because apparently it takes 21 days for acne to form so whatever was that was trying to form has to get out first before this treatment can now start showing
You all the nice things i was supposed to record this video last week but my skin looked like a crocodile that had leprosy it was just bad it was terrible and i got this huge pimples that were painful as hell i had is bad you get terrible and literally i was trying to even put on makeup and my makeup would just be like no not this skin no no no no so my makeup
Put him and sit right it was it was this bad so now i’m on week 2 of this treatment and it’s getting better i literally have only one big pimple on my face right now i kid you not and that’s this one on my cheek there’s the small little bumps but those are not so bad because they’re not painful but this one is actually painful so i’m one week – and to be honest
I can actually feel my skin transitioning from oily skin normal skin usually when i wake up in the morning i’d wake up with like shiny patch on my forehead on my you know my cheeks i was just like this glowing little star in the morning and this would also go throughout my day when i have makeup on so i’d always have to powder and you know the more you powder
The more cake face you look so it was just terrible last week i’ve experienced none of that literally my face would be normal in the morning i’ve been putting on makeup and it’s it’s i guess you don’t even have to powder or anything of the sort side effects wise i think the only thing i’ve experienced so far is the dry lips and personally interested uncut it but
When i put on lipstick or just a nice lip gloss it’s it’s okay like i’m good to go even throughout the day so it’s not so bad i haven’t experienced any other side effects other than the dry lips and it’s not so dry the other thing i’ve experienced is taking on my skin so sometimes it gets so dry that can fix skin and i just pills up on its own in flicks out but
That is a good thing if you’re taking a ct because the skin that is coming out is literally just dead skin falling off and this dead skin falls off with the monisha so it’s always a it i’ll be doing a three step approach to this whole treatment so i’ll be doing the hills between hydro-facials and i’ll have my products just to you know maintain the skin so number
One thick noodles i think after / accutane number two opening hydra facials so this had a facial top duty once a month so every time my dose or course of medicine for the month is over then i go to my artificial so let’s be on a monthly basis now as for the products i’m gonna stick to my dear garnier products so far so good because when i broke out at that time
And i started using the garnier products to be honest they really helps with my skin because it kind of sort of like maintained that they used to kind of dry out that or that the drive the peoples are coming out so what i was using was all of them over mattifying so they just kind of hold in that oil and the plants i was cleaning out by his skin i was toning my
Skin and soon they daily cream to adjust you know try as a skin so i’m gonna stick the garnier so for the day i’m using this wash even an mat and then i was strolling with this toner now i like this because especially now i appreciate it more because it is it has a high it has a hydrating agent so you know my skin is getting dry ish so this really helps to just
Keep in yes i treated and then i’ve been using this day cream this is the even in my daily pain now as for this you must be thinking of switching you
