Effects of Accutane on Circumcision?

tenis
I've read about accutane increasing the chances of scarring but I always thought this was for laser procedures. What about going under the knife for a procedure like an adult circumcision? Also, if I just started on accutane a month ago, and my circumcision is scheduled for a month from now, could I stop accutane completely now to be safe in time for this procedure?
