Can I get laser, ultrasound, and other skin treatments if I take low dose Accutane? I take 1 10MG pill every other week

Question

I have been on low dose accutane for a year, i take one 10mg pill once every other week to control oil, and its been working great, and i have no side effects because the dose is so low. because i am taking such a low dose and only taking one pill every other week can i still have laser or ultrasound skin tightening, velashape and other procedures?

F. Victor Rueckl, MD (in memoriam) · Answer

10mg every other week is below "low dosage". I would tell you that I would treat you, but would ask that you not take the medication for about 24 hours before any laser appointment. Only your treating office can decide what is ok with them, but I personally would have no issue with this. "This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and
