Ok to stop accutane early if my acne is completely cleared?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stay the course: I'm glad you got a good result, and i understand why you're eager to stop. If you go the full course, your remission will probably last longer. You know that you can expect months to years free of acne, but that many people do have recurrences.
