Asked By:jackh9989 in New York, NY

I was considering BBL (broadband light therapy). My doctor currently has me on very lose dose accutane for oilyness. 10mg once a week. Could I still do BBL at this point. There are a lot of warnings around combining other therapies with accutane ... but this dose is about 1/70th of what a standard weekly accutane regimen would be.
