Do the scars go completely away?

I'm currently in my 3rd month of taking Accutane and the bumps have gone away and the scars have faded some. Just wondering if I can expect complete fading or will I have to do microderm abrasion or chemical peels when I'm done.

    it depends on how deep the scars are.

    deep ones wont go away by themselves but surface scars will fade over time.

    They will never fade all the way. Try olive oil and lemon juice on them. It should help. You could also have your parents drop you off at Walmart or CBS. They have some scar cream my sister got(she has scars from mosquito bites) one time I used it because I dropped a curling wand on my leg while curling my friends hair and have a HUGE scar. It worked great. If they won't drop you off say you need something from the store and sneak it or say its for acne scars or a burn from a straightener. Good luck!

    i was best friends with a girl who kinda... went nuts and cut herself eeeeeeeeeeverywhere, so she started taking accutane. it works pretty well, but the scars never went completely away. you could always see a tiiiiiiiiiny bit leftover.
