DONT TAKE ACCUTANE
It'll fuck you up big time if your bones are still growing. You will be stuck with a beta jaw for the rest of your life.
Ahhh, my time to shine. I've spent a lot of time studying skincare science. I'm really vain, and I'm holding on to my looks like a retard. :^) At least I'm taking care of myself, I guess....
Kojic acid. I recommend Kojie San soap. I use it to brighten my skin, and it works alright. If the scars are below the second layer of your skin, they aren't going to lighten too much. However, this is unlikely unless your acne is serious and severe. I doubt it's cystic.
There's also Vitamic C. https://theacidqueenblog.com/2016/01/12/fun-with-diy-skinceuticals-dupe-vitamin-c-tutorial/
Some people buy the premade stuff. The problem with premade is that the Vit C goes bad really fast. It has a shelf life span of 2 weeks. That's why you should mix your own.
Oh, and you're going to need a moisturizer. As a default recommendation, here's are my top 3 picks: Mineral Oil, Vaseline/Petroleum Jelly, or Aquaphor (#1 choice). All of these are really unlikely to make you break out according to the scientific research I have read. A lot of people like to fear monger petroleum jelly and mineral oil, but these are the same people who eat organic and don't know why they are doing it. Studies show these are harmless products unless you are allergic.
You're going to need a moisturizer because your skin is going to be forever dry from the Accutane. The Kojic Acid soap is kinda drying. I only use it 2-3x a week. Vitamin C is also a bit irritating, so just use moisturizer and you'll be just fine.
