I'm wondering about the FAS 3 kit instructions. Is it supposed to be taken once a week? And does that mean it's a two-week course, like you take one kit on one day this week and then another the next week? Or is just one kit enough for the whole course?

FAS 3 kit is typically taken as a single dose. The kit contains multiple tablets that are meant to be taken all at once, not spread out over multiple weeks. So, one kit is usually enough to complete the course of treatment.

I'm currently seeing a dermatologist for some acne scarring and I've been taking sotret 20mg for the past four months and it's really helped with the scars and my face isn't as oily. But I've started noticing that my hair is thinning, my eyes burn a lot, I get nosebleeds, stomach upsets, hair fall, and even back pain sometimes. Are these the side effects of sotret? And if they are, will they go away once I stop the medication? Will my hair eventually get back to its original thickness, and how long might that take? I mentioned all these symptoms to my dermatologist, but she doesn't really think they're caused by the medication. Any thoughts on what I should do?

The symptoms you're experiencing, such as hair thinning, eye burn, nose bleeding, stomach upset, hair fall, and back pain, are common side effects of Sotret (Isotretinoin), and they are likely to subside once you stop taking the medication, with hair regrowth potentially taking several months to a year or more.

I've been struggling with acne marks on my face, and once they heal, the scabs leave behind fresh pink skin that doesn't blend in well with the rest of my face. It takes forever for these spots to lighten up or become less noticeable. This whole situation has really hit my confidence hard. I feel embarrassed to go out and often end up avoiding social gatherings because of it. I'm basically drained emotionally by all this. Is there anything I can do to help make these marks fade faster or blend better?

There are many advanced treatment modalities available you can try with co2 laser or other perfusion techniques for a good result
