Q: Acutane acne treatment ?

I am very uncomfortable with my son, 19 years old and in college, using Acutane for his acne breakout. He used to be on antibiotics for several years and that seemed to keep him pretty clear for the most part but this past summer he ran out of the medicine and we didn't get him any more because he was doing so well. Now that he is transitioning into college life, he is breaking out pretty badly and wants to get on Acutane because he heard it does the trick. I've been reading about the side effects and I don't want him to use it at all. TOO DANGEROUS with many side effects.

I saw a soap called ASSO that is made from gold and has great results. What do you know about that?

my brother used accutane and he did fine, but i heard about the horrible side effects. if can deform a baby if you get pregnant.
i dont know anything about asso soap, you can research the internet about that soap and try to find reviews about it.
what worked for me is a homopathic remedy herb called natures cure. you can buy it a some cvs, and walgreen pharmacy. it is inexpensive and it really works.
it explains why people get ance in their adult years and what the the pills, and jell does to stop it.
i went to dermatologist and they gave me retinA and it only dried my skin up really bad.
anyway, if you want to try it, it's herbs, it's cheap, and you have nothing to loose, the reviews are excellent. go to drugstore.com and put in the search engine natures cure acne medicine.
