My son (17 years) has face problems.

He has been using acnecutane 16mg (isotretinoine ) for six months, but it doesn't help. His doctor doesn't suggest any other treatment. I see how my son is suffering and I want to help him. Does anyone have experience in treating such a disease?

    Your son needs to ask to be referred to a dermatologist as they are the experts in any skin disease. A doctor is not a specialist and a derma will know of all treatments to try.
