i am on accutane and i was wondering if just the skin on my face is very sensitive to the sun or if it is my whole body? Summer is coming around and i really need to make sure i know what i need to do to get prepared for those summer days.

Most likely it affects your entire body. No matter what, you should be using SPF suntan lotion all year long. Call a pharmacist. They will be very happy to help you. Many many medications have the side effect of making a person sun sensitive, so it is very possible. be very careful, it is a whole body thing! it actually caused joint pain and muscle pain for me, so it is a much bigger issue than you may think. it did great things for my skin and i'd do it again, but it was really hard on my body.
