OKay I'd like to know what to expect in the early stages of?!
Question: taking a 6 month cycle of accutane. I was told I wouldn't need to use Proactiv anymore- or any other creams or treatments- so I stopped. I've been taking the accutane for about a month now and have noticed a crazy amount of blackheads that I just cannot get rid of. Any idea if this stuff works this way? Or if this is because I stopped using treatments?

give it time..
accutane takes tiem to clear all the crapo out of your system and your skin takes a while to bring everythign out...
give it 2-3 months and you should notice a significant improvement...
most of the time you will see good results with patience...
just a guess, but Proactive has exfoliating granules in the cleanser, whereas accutane is taken internally- the blackheads could be a result of not having the exfoliating quality anymore- maybe try an over the counter exfoliating scrub, or when you do wash your face use a washcloth and scrub it lightly to get all the excess dirt etc. off your face
