Accutane or Retin-A? [whiteheads] [accutane]

Ok . So Im finally deciding to go to a derm to find a way to blackheads outta my pores. I hear a lot about Accutane and Retin-A. Im not really that much pimples. Only the black and whiteheads. Which of the two rules that would best help the problem?

Reply:Retin-A-Micro Gel helps with blackheads even more than Retin-A.

Reply:Accutane kills the bacteria that cause clogged pores to become inflamed, and retinols help prevent them from clogging. If your blackheads are just blackheads and aren't inflamed, Accutane won't do anything for you, so I'd go with the Retin-A.

Reply:Retin A or Retin Micro would probably help u best. Accutane is more generally used for people with moderate to severe acne. I starting breaking out when I was around 11 or 12, and by the time I was 21, it was getting worse. I used accutane for about about 6 or 7 months, and have been break out free and I am 26 now. I would recommend the Retin-A first though. Some people have good experiences with that alone.

Good luck
