Can I Have Hair Trasplant While On Accutane?

You shouldn't have surgery while on Accutane.  It is always a good idea to let your doctor know you're on Accutane.  Accutane causes hair loss and it impairs wound healing.

I do not recommend this at all.  You should be off the Accutane for 6 months.  I had one procedure around 5 years ago performed on a patient who had stopped the Accutane 6 weeks prior, and he had significant crusting in the recipient site area.

No, you should not have hair transplant (or any other elective surgery) until you have been off Accutane for 6 to 12 months. This is due to the fact that Isotretinoin (Accutane) can interfere with wound healing, causing undue inflammation and even hypertrophic scarring. Hair transplantation, while minimally invasive (depending on the technique), is still a surgical procedure from which your body will need the proper care and internal environment to recover properly.

There is the rare case of accutane contributing to hair loss, but in most patients this is not a problem.  It still may be best to finish accutane before hair transplant just to be careful. 

I do not recommend you undergo hair transplantation or any elective procedures while on Accutane (isotretinoin).  Isotretinoin interferes with wound healing and will impair your healing and effect your results.  

This medication kills hair transplants unless you wait a full 8-12 months after stopping the medication before taking it. 

Accutane will adversely affect healing after hair transplant surgery. Wait 6-12 months after the Accutane before having hair replacement surgery.

Most physician hair restoration specialists will advise you to postpone your surgical hair restoration for another 6 to 12 months after you complete or stop your Accutane treatment.
