I went on accutane when I was 16. I was on accutane for about 8 months (2 months longer than the usual 6) and it cleared up my face like magic! I no longer have acne and the only times I get a pimple is around the time of my period, but its just one or two small ones - NOTHING like before! There are tons of accutane journals around the web you could read about people who have been or are currently on accutane. That might give you a better idea of whether or not to go foward with it. All in all, my experience was great and I would do it again if I had to.
