Can I continue using over-the-counter acne products with acneclear?

While using acneclear, particularly with medications like Roaccutane (Accutane or Isotretinoin), it’s generally recommended to discontinue the use of over-the-counter acne products with active ingredients. This is because Isotretinoin is a highly effective treatment for moderate to severe acne and using additional topical acne products can lead to over-treatment and an increased risk of side effects.

Our healthcare providers will provide guidance on adjusting your skincare routine during your consultation to ensure that your treatment plan is optimised for effectiveness and minimal side effects. If you have specific products you’re unsure about, don’t hesitate to discuss them with our team for personalised recommendations.

How does the medication prescribed by acneclear work?

The medication prescribed by acneclear, often referred to as Roaccutane (Accutane or Isotretinoin), is a powerful oral medication used to treat moderate to severe acne. It belongs to a class of drugs known as retinoids, and its mechanism of action is multifaceted.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Reducing Sebum Production: Roaccutane decreases the production of sebum, the oily substance that can clog pores and contribute to acne breakouts. By reducing sebum production, it helps prevent new pimples from forming.
  2. Preventing Clogged Pores: The medication helps to prevent the formation of comedones, which are the initial clogs in the hair follicles that lead to acne. This action reduces the development of whiteheads and blackheads.
  3. Anti-Inflammatory Effect: Roaccutane has anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne lesions, providing relief from painful and uncomfortable symptoms.
  4. Normalising Skin Cell Shedding: The medication normalises the shedding of skin cells within hair follicles, preventing the formation of microcomedones, which can evolve into acne lesions.
  5. Antibacterial Properties: Roaccutane also has some antibacterial effects, which can help reduce the presence of the bacteria P. acnes on the skin, a bacterium often associated with acne.

It’s important to note that Roaccutane is typically used when other treatments have not been effective, and it is prescribed under the guidance of a healthcare provider due to its potential side effects. Our experienced team at acneclear will closely monitor your progress to ensure the medication is working effectively and safely for you.

If you have specific questions about how the medication works or need further information about your treatment plan, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team.

Is it safe to continue other medications while using acneclear?

When using acneclear, particularly in conjunction with medications like Roaccutane (Accutane or Isotretinoin), it’s essential to consult with our healthcare providers regarding any other medications you may be taking.

Our experienced team can assess your specific situation and provide guidance on the safety and compatibility of your current medications with your acne treatment plan. In some cases, certain medications may need to be adjusted or discontinued to ensure the best results and minimise potential interactions.

Do I need to stop using my current skincare products during treatment?

Yes, it’s advisable to discontinue the use of skincare products with active ingredients intended to treat acne while undergoing treatment with medications like Roaccutane (Accutane or Isotretinoin). This is because Isotretinoin itself is a highly effective treatment for moderate to severe acne and using additional topical acne products may lead to over-treatment and increased risk of side effects.

Our healthcare providers will provide guidance on adjusting your skincare routine during your consultation to ensure that your treatment plan is optimised for effectiveness and minimal side effects. If you have specific products you’re unsure about, don’t hesitate to discuss them with our team for personalised recommendations.
