Dear Reetha,Good for you for asking this question as you must be careful while on Accutane. While on Accutane and for 1 year after, you should not have any surgical procedure. Once you're safely off of it and you've waited the appropriate amount of time, it is then okay to have the liposuction treatment if your doctor recommends it. Hope this helps!Dr. S
Since Accutane slows down wound healing and can affect scarring in unpredictable ways, it seems unreasonably risky to me to have a completely elective surgical procedure while on Accutane.
