Microneedling aftercare + Roaccutane?

angelabiJul 11, 2017
I have done the micro needling + PRP 4 days ago, but still suffering from redness. I wish I had viewed this website before I did the treatment because I just stopped taking Roaccutane 5 months ago!! the clinic didn't inform me of this risk before the treatment!!
