i had Painful acne all over my face,so much so that it was difficlt to sleep at night. So went to derma &she started on Isotretinion (been a month now)She suggested Qswitch laser and chemical peel(on the same day) simultaneously along with ongoing isotretinion treatment. i read along with isotretinion we should not undergo any laser therapy, is that correct? Also please see pics attached, do you think Q-switch laser along with chemical peel can help me? What should i expect from that treatment?
