Avoid exfoliating products while on isotretinoin
Isotretinoin, also know as Accutane, causes skin exfoliation. Other products, such as AHA and BHA ( alpha and beta hydroxy acids) which also cause exfoliation, should be avoided while on this medication as this will likely cause irritation. Instead, use a rich moisturizer.
