I am 21 year old male about to start Isotretinoin treatment next week. I will start with a dose of 40 mg daily. I am in the middle of laser hair removal sessions for my back and when I start my Isotretinoin treatment I am supposed to stop any laser hair removal treatments. I have an incredibly hairy back and don't think shaving it will cut it (it grows thick and fast). What other options do I have for removing back hair? Can I wax, or is waxing going to be too harmful on my skin?
I'm on 10 mg/day and I'm barely even a week through. Of course, I don't want to have hair lingering there for the next 6 months and I don't want my underarms to darken through shaving either. Is waxing okay? Huhu (Follow up question: what BCP are advisable while on accutane? I'm afraid to ask because she might tell my mom I'm sexually active lol)
