• Acne treatment 20.01.2009

    As you can see on our site shipacne.com we are not big on promoting chemical or pharmaceutical  based acne products, we will however possibly list some of them on our site in the future. Accutane’s use should be considered thoroughly or used as a last resort for those who see no other alternative for treating their acne.  Accutane for some might be an option, but before making that choice you should know that it can cause severe side effects not only in healthy human beings but also in women who are pregnant.

    So what is accutane ?

    Accutane’s generic name is Isotretinoin , it is a form of Vitamin A, what accutane does is reduces the amount of oil that skin glands produce and help the skin renew itself faster. Accutane is generally used for the treatment of whats called nodular acne,  nodular acne is larger than normal acne  often as large as the size of a pencil eraser , nodular acne can create big lesions if not cared for properly and it is best not to squeeze or pick at it becuase it can  cause large scars in the long run.

    Some of the side effects of accutane can include

      Hair loss
      Depression
      Fever and  chills
      Joint stiffness
      Back pain
      Dry lips
      Itchy peeling or dry skin

    So before considering using Accutane make sure you consult with your doctor first , allthough your acne may be severe , please take in to consideration that taking accutane can be worse.
