I am 29 years old and about to start Isotretinoin treatment taking three pills a week (monday, wednesday, friday) for a year - maybe longer, for skin improvement - according to my dermatologist. However, I am at an early stage of aging and was wondering if there are any anti-aging products/treatments I can do while using Iso? My nasolabial lines are in particular starting to show ... and I really feel the need to do something about this.
