It started in my freshman year of high school. Several large areas of acne, on both sides of my face. I did several things to beat it, and I was successful. BUT THEN>>>
If you're here, I do not have to talk about the pain of cystic acne. The embarrassment and mental stress. You know it already. This is what motivated my mom to do a deep dive.into this monster.
We are not advocating for or against Accutane.
We just think you should try B5 first.
Everyday I'm grateful. I'm grateful for these scars. Everyday I see these scars is everyday I don't have cystic acne. It's been 2 years and it's not ever come back.
Here's how I started: 1000mg for a day, then 2000mg, then 3000mg then 4000mg all the way up to 10,000mg. I maintained this level until no more cystic acne formed. About 3 weeks. Once it stopped, I worked my way down back to 2000mg or so. I currently maintain 1000mg per day or more, depending on the time of the month lol.
If you have ANY questions, please reach out. I've been where you are, I understand.
