A member asked:
Do i need to use any topicals now that i'm off accutane? if so, how long after stopping?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe none: Everyone is different. Many people need no more acne treatments after Accutane. Some people need topical or oral treatment, some people need a second course of Accutane. Depends on what you see when you look in the mirror.
