How Long Should I Wait for Laser Genesis After Accutane?

June 5, 2009
Asked By:Dirk in Belgium

I've been on a very low dose of Accutane, 10mg per day for 2 weeks. After the 2 week-period I decided to stop the Accutane. Should I still wait 6 months before having Laser Genesis (which is non invasive and non ablative)?

Will One Laser Genesis Treatment Give Any Results?
Geoff Trenkle, DO says:

Lasergenesis should be spaced out 2 weeks apart so this may not be ideal for you unless another spa or doctors office is around to finish the treatment.  I would suggest you do at least 4-6 total treatments to get the best results.
