A member asked:
I have had acne vulgaris since i was 13. i'm now 34 and only recently since 6 years ago got accutane to finally get rid of acne forever. would the covid 19 vaccine cause me to get acne vulgaris again as a side effect? i dont want acne ever again!!!!?

That is highly unlikely. The main thing is to get your vaccination to help protect you from an entity that could be much more serious than any acne condition. Schedule your shot as soon as you are able.

the vaccine simply accentuates your immmune system to the virus responsible for covid symptoms . it will not affect your acne potential.
